Tire Wear or Damage

The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover normal wear or worn-

out tires. Tires will not be replaced (unless required by a warranty re-

pair) for wear or damage including:

• tire damage from road hazard such as cuts, snags, bruises, bulges,

puncture, and impact breaks

• tire damage due to under or over inflation, tire chain use, racing, spin-

ning (as when stuck in snow or mud), improper mounting or dis-

mounting, or tire repair

• tire vibration or ride harshness and uneven or rapid tire wear. How-

ever, limited coverage for these conditions will be provided for the

first 12 months in service or 12,000 miles, whichever occurs first, even

though caused by maintenance and wear items such as wheel align-

ment or tire balancing. This limitation for ride harshness and uneven

or rapid tire wear does not apply to tire replacement on the New Style

F-150 Truck. (Note: the 12 month/12,000 mile, whichever occurs first,

limitation does apply to the F-150 Heritage Truck.)
