UNIROYAL
®
PASSENGER AND
LIGHT TRUCK TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
ABOUT THE LIMITED WARRANTY AND OWNER’S MANUAL
As the original purchaser of a Uniroyal
®
passenger or light truck tire,
you are covered by all the benefits and conditions (subject to the
maintenance recommendations and safety warnings) contained in the
Owner’s Manual. 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.
Definitions
The “legal life of the tire” is six years from the date of purchase or the
life of the “usable tread,” which is defined as the original tread worn
down to the level of the treadwear indicators – 2/32nds of an inch (1.6
mm) of tread remaining, whichever occurs first. The date of purchase
is documented by a new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no
proof of purchase is available, the date of manufacture as molded on
the sidewall, will be used.
Uneven wear is defined as a tread depth difference of 2/32nds of an
inch or more on the same tire.
THE UNIROYAL LIMITED WARRANTY –
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Workmanship and Materials
Uniroyal
®
passenger and light truck tires, used in normal service on the
vehicle on which they were originally fitted and in accordance with
the maintenance recommendations and safety warnings contained in
the owner’s manual section of this booklet, are covered by this limited
warranty against defects in workmanship and materials for the life of the
original usable tread, or six years from date of purchase, whichever comes
first. At that time, all warranties, express or implied, expire.
Treadwear – Mileage Warranty Coverage for Uniroyal
®
Passenger and Light Truck Tires
Some Uniroyal
®
Tiger Paw
®
and Laredo
®
tires are covered by a
manufacturer’s limited warranty for treadwear, for six years from the
date of purchase. For the mileage warranty associated with a
specific tire line, please see your Uniroyal Tire Dealer or visit us at
www.uniroyaltires.com/care. Some vehicles come from the vehicle
manufacturer with “split fitments”– meaning different size tires on
the front and rear axles. Because these tires cannot be rotated as
recommended by Uniroyal, the mileage warranty on each rear tire will
cover half the number of miles as the standard mileage warranty for
that particular tire design.
An important reminder:
No tire manufacturer can guarantee you a certain number of miles from a
given tire. Driving habits, driving conditions, road conditions, and vehicle
maintenance all play a part in the tread life of a tire. If a tire does not
reach the warranty mileage, and the owner of the tires has complied with
the terms and conditions of the warranty, Uniroyal will replace the tires
as described under “HOW REPLACEMENT CHARGES ARE CALCULATED”.
