OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:

As the off-highway recreational vehicle owner you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner's manual. John Deere recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your off-highway recreational vehicle, but John Deere cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of a scheduled maintenance.

As an owner you are responsible for presenting your off-highway recreational vehicle to a John Deere dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

As an off-highway recreational vehicle owner, you should also be aware that John Deere may deny you warranty coverage if your off-highway recreational vehicle or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact a John Deere Turf and Utility retailer, or the John Deere Customer Contact Center at 1-800-537-8233, or email John Deere from https://www.deere.com/en_US/services_and_support/technology-solutions/stellarsupport/answer-center/turf-answer-center.page or the California Air Resources Board at 9528 Telstar Avenue, El Monte, CA 91731.

ADDITIONAL EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY INFORMATION:

Subject to the conditions and exclusions of the Limited Liability Section below, the warranty on emissions-related parts must function as follows:

(1) Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement as part of maintenance in the written instructions (see the “Service Intervals” section of the Operator’s manual) must be warranted for the warranty period defined in the Warranty Coverage section above. If any such part fails during the warranty period, it must be repaired or replaced by John Deere according to part 4 of this section. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be fully warranted.

(2) Any warranted part which is scheduled only for regular inspection in the written instructions (see the “Service Intervals” section of the Operator’s manual) must be warranted for the Warranty Coverage section above. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” must not reduce the period of warranty coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for the remaining warranty period.

(3) Any warranted part which is scheduled for replacement as part of maintenance in the written instructions (see the “Service Intervals” section of the Operator’s manual) must be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails before the first scheduled replacement point, the part must be repaired or replaced by John Deere according to part 4 of this section. Any such part repaired or replaced under warranty must be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part.

(4) Repair or replacement of any warranted part under this warranty must be performed at no charge to the off-highway recreational vehicle owner, at a warranty station, except in the case of a temporary repair when a warranted part or a warranty station is not reasonably available to the off-highway recreational vehicle owner. In the event a temporary repair is permitted under this warranty, repairs may be performed at any available service establishment, or by the owner, using any replacement part. John Deere must reimburse the owner for his or her expenses including diagnostic charges for such temporary repair or replacement, not to exceed John Deere’s suggested retail price for all warranted parts replaced and labor charges based on John Deere’s recommended time allowance for the warranty repair and the geographically appropriate hourly labor rate.

(5) Warranty services or repairs must be provided at all John Deere dealerships.

(6) The off-highway recreational vehicle owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a warranted part is, in fact, defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a warranty station.

(7) John Deere is liable for damages to other vehicle components proximately caused by a failure, under warranty, of any warranted part.

(8) Throughout the off-highway recreational vehicle’s warranty period defined in the Warranty Coverage section above, John Deere must maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for such parts. The lack of availability of such parts or the incompleteness of repairs within a reasonable time period, not to exceed 30 days from the time the off-highway recreational vehicle is initially presented to the warranty station for repair, will qualify the need for a temporary repair for purposes of part 4 of this section.

(9) Any replacement part designated by John Deere may be used in warranty repairs provided without charge to the off-highway recreational vehicle owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations of John Deere, except that John Deere will not be liable under this Warranty for repair or replacement of any replacement part which is not a warranted part (except as provided under part 7 of this section).

(10) Any add-on or modified part exempted by the Air Resources Board from the prohibitions of section 27156 of the California Vehicle Code may be used on an off-highway recreational vehicle. Such use, in and of itself, will not be grounds for disallowing a warranty claim made under this Warranty. John Deere is not liable under this Warranty to warrant failures of warranted parts caused by the use of an add-on or modified part(s) unless such part(s) are also warranted.
