(2) The 15-year or 150,000-mile extended warranty specified in CCR, Title 13, section 1962.1(c)(2)(D) for PZEVs is not included as a requirement of this rule or OAR 340-257-0050, for the period 2009 through 2017 provided that PZEVs delivered for sale to Oregon are equipped with the same quality components as PZEVs supplied to areas where the full 15-year or 150,000-mile warranty remains in effect. The provisions of this section do not amend the requirements of CCR, Title 13, section 1962.1(c)(2)(D) that indicate the warranty period for a zero emission energy storage device used for traction power will be 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

(3) For all 2009 and subsequent model year vehicles subject to the provisions of this division, each manufacturer must include the emission control system warranty statement that complies with the requirements in CCR, Title 13, section 2039.

Manufacturers may modify this statement as necessary to inform Oregon vehicle owners of the warranty's applicability. The manufacturer must provide a telephone number that Oregon consumers can use to learn answers to warranty questions.

(4) Upon the Department's request, any manufacturer must submit to the Department Failure of Emission-Related Components reports as defined in CCR, Title 13, section 2144, for vehicles subject to this regulation.
