BFGOODRICH
®
PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK
REPLACEMENT TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
To ensure your understanding of and compliance with the terms and
conditions of this warranty, please read it carefully. It is essential that you
also read and understand the safety and maintenance recommendations
for tires contained in this Owner’s Manual.
WHO IS COVERED?
This warranty covers the original purchaser of BFGoodrich
®
passenger and
light truck replacement tires.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG?
BFGoodrich passenger and light truck replacement tires
that are used in normal service on the vehicle on which
they were originally fitted are covered as follows:
Workmanship and Materials
If there is a defect in workmanship and materials during the life of the
original usable tread, or six years from date of purchase (whichever comes
first), a replacement, or pro rata replacement of the tire may be available
under this warranty.
The “date of purchase” refers to the date on your sales invoice. If you
cannot find your sales invoice, the date will be calculated based on the
date of manufacture which is molded on the sidewall of your tire.
The “life of the usable tread” refers to the original tread worn down to
the level of the treadwear indicators, which is 2/32nds of an inch (1.6
mm) of tread remaining.
Treadwear
If the tire treadware does not reach its mileage warranty during the life
of the original usable tread, or six years from date of purchase (whichever
comes first), a pro rata replacement of the tire may be available under this
warranty. For the mileage warranty associated with a specific tire, please
see your BFGoodrich tire retailer or visit bfgoodrichtires.com.
Note that if you use different size tires on the front and rear axles your
tires cannot be rotated as recommended by BFGoodrich. As a result, the
mileage warranty on each rear tire will be half that specified.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
This warranty does not cover tires damaged due to
misuse, abuse or accident such as:
– Road hazards (e.g., cuts, snags, bruises, impact damage or punctures);
– Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance or improper repair;
– Misapplication, improper maintenance, racing, underinflation, overinflation
or other abuse;
– Uneven or rapid wear which is caused by mechanical irregularity in the
vehicle such as wheel misalignment, (a measured tread difference of
2/32nds of an inch or more across the tread on the same tire);
