In the owners manual for my 2000 Accent, the
maintenance schedule, has the timing belt to
be replaced at 60K, but is footnoted that
"For California, this maintenance is recommended,
but not required". Anybody know why it
is different for Calif?

I suspect there's a legal reason that they cannot deny warranty coverage if
it's not replaced when due and then fails.
