MANUFACTURER"S WARRANTIES
Consumers are sometimes told by an automobile dealer's service writer or mechanic that a brand of replacement spark plug cannot be used in the consumer's vehicle during the warranty period. The claim is made that the use of the brand will "void the warranty," with the statement or implication that only the original equipment brand of spark plugs may be used. This, of course, tends to cast doubt on the quality of the replacement spark plug.
That claim is simply not true. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and general principles of the Federal Trade Commission Act, a manufacturer may NOT require the use of any brand of spark plug (or any other article) UNLESS the manufacturer provides the item FREE OF CHARGE under the terms of the warranty.
STATEMENT of CERTIFACTION:
Bosch Spark Plugs meet or exceed warranty requirements of all vehicle and engine manufacturers and when properly installed in accordance with the recommended application will not adversly affect the emission control system of any vehicle.
