Briggs & Stratton Emissions Warranty
California, U.S. EPA, and Briggs & Stratton Corporation
Emissions Control Warranty - Your Warranty Rights and
Obligations
For Briggs & Stratton Engine Models with "B" or "G"
Trim Designation (Model-Type-Trim Representation
xxxxxx xxxx Bx or xxxxxx xxxx Gx)
The California Air Resources Board, U.S. EPA, and Briggs &
Stratton (B&S) are pleased to explain the exhaust emissions
("emissions") control system warranty on your 2019-2021
engine. In California, new small off-road engines and large
spark ignited engines less than or equal to 1.0 liter must be
designed, built, and equipped to meet the State's stringent
anti-smog standards. B&S must warrant the emissions
control system on your engine for the periods of time
listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect
or improper maintenance of your small off-road engine or
equipment leading to the failure of the emissions control
system.
Your emissions control system may include parts such as
the carburetor or fuel-injection system, the ignition system,
catalytic converter, fuel tanks, fuel lines (for liquid fuel and
fuel vapors), fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, clamps and
other associated components. Also included may be hoses,
belts, connectors, and other emission-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, B&S will repair your
engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts, and
labor.
Manufacturer's Warranty Coverage:
The exhaust emissions control system on your engine is
warranted for two years. If any emissions-related part on
your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced
by B&S.
Owner's Warranty Responsibilities:
• As the engine owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your
owner's manual. B&S recommends that you retain all
receipts covering maintenance on your engine, but B&S
cannot deny warranty coverage solely for the lack of
receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of
all scheduled maintenance.
• As the engine owner, you should however be aware that
B&S may deny you warranty coverage if your engine
or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper
maintenance or unapproved modifications.
• You are responsible for presenting your engine
to a B&S distribution center or service center as
soon as the problem exists. The warranty repairs
shall be completed in a reasonable amount of time,
not to exceed 30 days. If you have a question
regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you
should contact B&S at 1-800-444-7774 (in USA) or
BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM.
