Emission Modification Notice
Notice: Modifications made to the following can affect the vehicle's emission controls and may cause the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), Check Engine or Service Engine Soon lamp to illuminate:

* The fuel system
Replacement tires that do not meet the same Tire Performance Criteria (TPC) of the original tires can also affect the vehicle's emission controls. This may also cause the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), Check Engine or Service Engine Soon lamp to illuminate.
Modifications to these systems or the installation of incorrect TPC tires could lead to repairs that are not covered by the manufacturer's warranty. This may also cause a required Emission Inspection/Maintenance test to fail.
