2. In the event multiple parts give rise to a defect and it is determined that the defect is due to a series of such parts, even if such parts are listed in the List of Covered Parts, the Warranty shall not apply in the event that the parts that are the primary cause of the defect are not listed in the List of Covered Parts, and the Warranty shall not apply with respect to the parts listed on the List of Covered Parts.

1. PWSPI is not bound to use new original equipment manufactured (OEM) parts to replace the covered parts and may use any commercially distributed aftermarket parts manufactured by designated suppliers of the vehicle manufacturer.
