MAINTENANCE SERVICE AND REPLACEMENT PARTS Important information concerning maintenance service and replacement parts is in the Limited Warranty on Nissan Parts and Accessories section of this booklet. MAINTENANCE RECORDS Receipts covering the performance of regular maintenance should be kept in the event questions arise concerning maintenance. The receipts should be transferred to subsequent owners. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS You may obtain further information concerning these warranties by following the procedure outlined in the "CUSTOMER CARE" section of this booklet. In the case of the Performance Warranty, you may also contact or report any violations to the Office of Transportation and Air Quality, Vehicle Compliance Programs Group, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Ariel Rios Building (6405J), 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W, Washington, D.C. 20460 (Continued on next page) WHAT NISSAN WILL DO Warranty repairs will be made at no charge for parts and/or labor, including diagnosis and tax. Any needed parts replacement will be made using new or remanufactured parts. OTHER WARRANTY TERMS PERFORMANCE WARRANTY CLAIMS PROCEDURE You may make a claim under the Performance Warranty immediately after the failure of an EPA approved emissions test. You must provide proof of this failure when making your claim. You will be told whether Nissan will honor your claim within 30 days of the date you make the claim unless a shorter time period is required by law. If your claim is denied, Nissan will notify you in writing of the reason. If we do not notify you within this time period, we will repair your vehicle under this warranty at no cost to you. The time period for notification will not apply if you request a delay or a delay is caused by events not under the control of Nissan dealers. No claim will be denied under the Performance Warranty because you use a non-Nissan but EPA certified part for maintenance or repair.
