US -EPA Notice


FLO~PRO Performance Exhaust ("FLO~PRO"), has entered into a civil judicial settlement with the United States regarding the manufacture and sale of certain exhaust and engine software tuning products including the products identified and hereinafter referred to as "Subject Products." The United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has alleged that the manufacture, sale, and offer for sale of these Subject Products violates the Clean Air Act's prohibition against motor vehicle parts or components that have a principal effect of bypassing, defeating, or rendering inoperative any emissions control device or element of design installed in or on a motor vehicle. See 42 U.S.C. § 7522(a)(3). Emissions control devices include the diesel particulate filter, exhaust gas recirculation system, catalysts, and onboard diagnostic system. Although FLO~PRO has not admitted liability for violating the Clean Air Act, as part of the settlement it has agreed, among other things, that:
1. FLO~PRO will no longer manufacture, sell, offer for sale, or install these Subject Products or others that have a principal effect of bypassing, defeating, or rendering inoperative any emissions control device or element of design installed in or on a motor vehicle in the United States;
2. FLO~PRO will no longer provide technical support (including user manuals, telephone support, online/chat support, YouTube videos, and warranty support) for these Subject Products; and
3. FLO~PRO will no longer support warranty claims pertaining to any of these Subject Products.
