Customer's "Warranty Denial" Bill of Rights
According to the Specialty Equipment Market Association ("SEMA")

Your rights are protected through the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 USC, 2302, and the Clean Air Act, 42 USC § 7541.

1. You have the right to buy high-quality, reliable aftermarket performance and replacement parts - an affordable and convenient alternative to the vehicle maker's parts.

2. You have the right to use high-quality aftermarket parts and know that your new car warranty claims will be honored. In fact, your vehicle dealer may not reject a warranty claim simply because an aftermarket product is present. A warranty denial in such circumstances may be proper only if the aftermarket part caused the failure being claimed.

3. You have the right to patronize independent retail stores for vehicle parts and installation. The U.S. aftermarket offers the world's finest selection of aftermarket products satisfy the most discriminating customers seeking personalized vehicles for today's lifestyle.

The foregoing message is brought to you by SEMA, the Specialty Equipment Market Association. If you would like further information on what to do and who to call if your new car warranty is denied, call the Federal Trade Commission at 202-326-3128.
