This warranty also does not cover any belt that is more than seven years old (more than seven years has passed since the date of manufacture).

We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF, AND WE DISCLAIM, ALL OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES (INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) AND ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES.

How State Law Relates to the Warranty: Some states do not permit limitations on the period of an implied warranty and do not permit the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, therefore the above limitations or exclusions may not apply. This warranty provides specific legal rights. Other rights may vary according to the state/province in which the owner is located.
