- OTHER WARRANTY
Subject to any statutory implied terms, this vehicle warranty contains the whole of the Manufacturer's and/or the Distributor's obligations, and an authorised Mazda Dealer or its or his agent or employee is not authorised to extend or enlarge this vehicle warranty.
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND REMEDY
The Manufacturer and the Distributor are not liable for any consequential, indirect or incidental loss or damage or for any service not expressly provided herein and the liability of the Manufacturer or the Distributor under this warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of defective material or workmanship, by an authorised Mazda Dealer or the Distributor at its place of business utilising genuine Mazda approved parts and the skills of Mazda trained technicians. Rights given to or created in favour of the buying public by legislation cannot be excluded or limited, and this vehicle warranty is to be read and construed as additional to and not restrictive of such statutory rights or warranties.
TYRE WARRANTY
Tyres installed as original equipment on Mazda vehicles are warranted by their respective manufacturers and are not included in this warranty.
OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY
- Maintenance services are the owner's responsibility.
You must retain evidence that proper maintenance has been performed on your Mazda vehicle, which an authorised Mazda Dealer or other service provider should certify in the Warranty Information booklet by its stamp and its signature. Claims made during the warranty term will not qualify under the warranty if resulting from lack of maintenance rather than from defective material or workmanship. If your vehicle is subject to use under severe driving conditions, you should follow the additional maintenance requirements specified in your Owner's Manual.
- You must maintain your Mazda vehicle in accordance with section "Appearance Care" in your Owner's Manual.
- You must deliver you Mazda vehicle to an authorised Mazda Dealer to obtain warranty service.
For details of vehicle appearance, maintenance and service schedules (as referred to under "Owners Responsibility" above), please refer to the "Maintenance" and "Appearance Care" sections of the "Owners Manual".
