Subject: 1992 AUDI WARRANTY COVERAGE ANNOUNCEMENT
^ 3/50 NEW VEHICLE WARRANTY
^ FEDERAL/CALIFORNIA EMISSION WARRANTY
^ TIRE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY STATEMENT


Audi of America, Inc. is pleased to announce the following 1992 model year Warranty coverages:

^ The 1992 Audi Limited New Vehicle Warranty Coverage will remain at 3 years or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

^ The repair and/or replacement of tires is excluded for 1992 model Audi vehicles. Tires are separately warranted by the respective tire manufacturers. The Magnuson-Moss Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act of 1975 and regulations issued pursuant to the Act, require that an appropriate tire warranty pamphlet be placed in every new vehicle prior to sale. Audi Products will have the appropriate tire warranty brochure placed in the vehicles at our Port locations. To assist you in obtaining sufficient quantities of tire warranty pamphlets for vehicles that may not have one upon delivery, the enclosed list of tire manufacturers, phone numbers and addresses is being provided. This list also appears in the October 1991 edition of the Warranty Policies and Procedures Manual.

^ The 1992 Federal Emission Warranties are identical to the 1991 warranties.

The Federal Emission Control System Warranty is 5 years or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs first. A list of components covered by this warranty is contained in the latest Warranty Policies and Procedures Manual for detailed coverage of specific components.

The Federal Emission Performance Warranty applies only in states that maintain an EPA approved inspection and maintenance program. The warranty applies to any component that causes a covered vehicle to fail an EPA approved state inspection and maintenance test within 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever occurs first. If the vehicle has been in use for more than 2 years/24,000 miles but less than 5 years/50,000 miles, the Federal Emission Performance Warranty will cover only those failures resulting from malfunctioning components which have been installed in or on the vehicle for the sole or primary purpose of reducing vehicle emissions and that were not in general use prior to model year 1968. This policy is the same as it was for the 1991 model year. Refer to the latest Warranty Policies and Procedures Manual or an applicable Owners Warranty Booklet for a list of specific components and coverages.


^ The California Emission Control System Warranty and Performance Warranty coverage remains unchanged for 1992 at 3 years or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs first. California has enacted a law requiring that vehicle manufacturers cover certain emission system components for 7 years or 70,000 miles. A list of these specific components is shown below:
