Repairing or replacing other components not covered by this warranty is the responsibility of the vehicle owner.

WIDESCAPE DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS WARRANTIES NOT STATED IN THIS WARRANTY.

This Limited Warranty excludes failures not caused by a defect in material or workmanship. This Limited Warranty does not cover damage due to accidents, abuse or improper handling, maintenance or use. This Limited Warranty also does not cover any engine that has been structurally altered, or when the vehicle has been used in racing competition.

WIDESCAPE may deny warranty claims for failures that have been caused by the owner’s or operator’s improper maintenance or use, by accidents for which WIDESCAPE has no responsibility, or by acts of God.
Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain, replace, or repair the emission control devices or systems on your vehicle. WIDESCAPE recommends that you contact an authorized WIDESCAPE dealer to perform any service that may be necessary for your vehicle. WIDESCAPE also recommends that you use only WIDESCAPE parts.
