subsection (d) must be warranted for the
period of time prior to the first scheduled
replacement point for that part. If the
part fails prior to the first scheduled
replacement, the part must be repaired
or replaced by Caterpillar according to
the subsection (4) below. 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 the warranty must be
performed at no charge to the owner at
a warranty station.
(5) Notwithstanding the provisions of
subsection (4) above, warranty services
or repairs must be provided at all
Caterpillar distribution centers that are
franchised to service the subject
engine/equipments.
(6) The owner must not be charged for
diagnostic labor that leads to the
determination that a warranted part is in
fact defective, provided that such
diagnostic work is performed at a
warranty station.
(7) Caterpillar is liable for damages to other
engine/equipment components
proximately caused by a failure under
warranty of any warranted part.
(8) Throughout the emissions warranty
period defined in subsection (b)(2),
Caterpillar must maintain a supply of
warranted parts sufficient to meet the
expected demand for such parts.
(9) Any replacement part may be used in
the performance of any warranty
maintenance or repairs and must be
provided without charge to the owner.
Such use will not reduce the warranty
obligations of Caterpillar.
(10) Add-on or modified parts that are not
exempted by the Air Resource Board
may not be used. The use of any non-

be grounds for disallowing a warranty
claim. Caterpillar will not be liable to
warrant failures of warranted parts
caused by the use of a non-exempted
add-on or modified part.
