2016 INFINITI QX80 Warranty Information Booklet

WHAT IS COVERED?
Infiniti2warrants your Genuine Infiniti Replacement
Battery as described below except as stated under
“What is not covered?”
This warranty covers defects in materials and workman-
ship.
HOW LONG IS THE WARRANTY AND WHAT
WILL INFINITI DO
If your battery becomes unserviceable within the first
24 months of service Infiniti will replace your battery,
including labor, without charge, p roviding the battery
was originally installed in your vehicle by an authorized
Infiniti retailer.
If the battery becomes unserviceable after 24 months of
use, Infiniti will provide a replacement battery at a re-
duced price, charging only for the portion of the life of
the battery actually used. This is called a “pro-rata ad-
justment”. You will be responsible for all labor charges
for the replacement of the battery.
This warranty and the “pro-rata adjustment” end
84 months after the date of the battery’s purchase or
installation, whichever is earlier.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This warranty does not cover:
1. Damage or failure resulting from: ●Accident, theft, fire or freezing.
● Misuse of the battery or vehicle in which it is
installed, including the use in applications for
which the battery was not designed. Proper use
is described in the vehicle’s Owner’s Manual.
● Improper installation or battery charging.
● Vehicle electrical malfunctions not covered by
your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
● Modification or improper repair of the vehicle or
a part of the vehicle.
● Use of parts not equivalent in quality or design
to parts supplied by Infiniti or Infiniti.
● Environmental conditions, including, but not
limited to flood, and salt spray or salt water.
2. Normal maintenance service and recharging of dis- charged batteries.
3. Batteries in service more than 84 months.
4.
Salvage Title. This warranty does not cover damage, failure, or corrosion to any Genuine Infiniti battery
installed in the vehicle, if the vehicle is issued a
“salvage” or similar title unless state law expressly
states otherwise. (This exclusion does not extend to a
new Genuine Infiniti battery installed in the vehicle
after the issuance of a “salvage” or similar title).
WHATYOUMUSTDO
In order to obtain warranty service, you must deliver the
warranted battery or the vehicle in which the battery is
installed to an authorized Infiniti retailer in the U.S. or
Canada at your expense, with proof of purchase (parts
invoice or service repair order from an authorized Infiniti
retailer). The names and addresses of authorized Infiniti
retailers are listed in telephone directories or Infiniti.com.
If the “pro-rata adjustment” applies, you must pay for
the portion of the 84 month warrantable life that you
actually used. The amount you pay is computed in two
steps. First, the client pay percentage is determined
from the chart shown below based upon the months of
actual battery service.
Months
In ServiceClient Pay
Percentage
0–24 0%
25–32 25%
33–50 50%
51–84 75%
Second, the current suggested retail price of the new
battery is multiplied by the client pay percentage. For
example, should the battery fail after 40 months of
service you would pay 50% of the suggested retail price
of the new battery.

HIGHWAY AUTO AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRE
REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT POLICY
(EXCLUDES GOODYEAR UNISTEEL® RADIAL
LIGHT TRUCK TIRES)
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
You are eligible for the benefits of this Limited Warranty
if you meet all the following criteria:
You are the owner or authorized agent of the owner
of new Goodyear or Dunlop highway auto or light
truck tires supplied as Original Equipment on your
vehicle.
Your tires bear Department of Transportation pre-
scribed tire identification numbers.
Your tires have been used only on the vehicle on
which they were originally installed according to the
vehicle manufacturer or Goodyear’s recommenda-
tions.
Your tires were purchased on or after September 1,
2012.
Light truck tires are defined as all tires identified with
the “LT” designation in the sidewall stamping.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG?
FREE TIRE REPLACEMENT
Any new Goodyear or Dunlop highway radial auto or
radial light truck tire, covered by this policy, removed
from service due to a covered warranty condition during
the first 2/32” of usable treadwear or twelve months
from date of purchase, whichever comes first, will be
replaced with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop
tire at no charge, including mounting and balancing.
(Without proof of purchase the date of manufacture will
be used to determine eligibility.) ALL OTHER HIGHWAY AUTO OR LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
Any new Goodyear or Dunlop highway auto or light truck
tire, other than radial auto, radial light truck tires, re-
moved from service due to a covered warranty condition
during the first 1/32” of usable treadwear will be re-
placed with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop tire
at no charge, including mounting and balancing.
TEMPORARY SPARE TIRES
Any Goodyear or Dunlop temporary spare tire removed
from service due to a covered warranty condition during
the first 50% of usable treadwear (1/32”) will be re-
placed with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop tem-
porary spare tire at no charge, including mounting.
PRORATED ADJUSTMENT
Tires not eligible for free replacement that are removed
from service due to a covered warranty condition will be
replaced with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop
tire on a prorated basis for up to six (6) years from the
date of original new tire purchase or when the treadwear
indicators become
visible (wornto 2/32”), whichever
occurs first. (Without proof of purchase the date of
manufacture will be used to determine eligibility.)
HOW WILL PRORATED CHARGES BE
CALCULATED?
Replacement price will be calculated by multiplying the
tire’s advertised retail selling price at the time of adjust-
ment by the percentage of usable original tread that has
been worn off. You pay for mounting and balancing, and
an amount equal to the current Federal Excise Tax (F.E.T.
– U.S. only) any other applicable taxes and government-
mandated charges.
EXAMPLE: If your disabled tire had an original 8/32” of
usable treadwear and is worn to 4/32” usable tread remaining, you have used 50%, and therefore must pay
50% of the advertised retail selling price of the compa-
rable tire.
In addition, you must pay an amount equal to the full
current Federal Excise Tax (U.S. only) or any other appli-
cable taxes and government-mandated charges for the
comparable new replacement tire at the time of adjust-
ment. If the price of the new comparable tire is $80, the
cost to you would be $40 plus F.E.T. (U.S. only) plus any
other applicable taxes and government-mandated
charges.
WHAT IS A COMPARABLE TIRE?
A “comparable” new Goodyear or Dunlop tire will be the
same brand tire and may either be the same line of tire
or, in the event that the tire is not available, the same
brand tire with the same basic construction and quality
with a different sidewall or tread configuration. If a
higher priced tire is accepted as replacement, the differ-
ence in price will be at an additional charge to you.
Any replacement tire provided pursuant to this warranty
will be covered by the Goodyear or Dunlop warranty in
effect at the time of replacement.
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
A tire has delivered its full original tread life and the
coverage of this limited warranty ends when the tread-
wear indicators become visible (worn to 2/32”), or six
(6) years from the date of new tire purchase, whichever
occurs first. (Without proof of purchase the date of
manufacture will be used to determine eligibility.)

SAFETY WARNINGS
Property damage, serious injury or death may result
from:
TIRE FAILURE DUE TO UNDERINFLATION/
OVERLOADING / MISAPPLICATION.
Follow the vehicle Owner’s Manual or tire placard in
vehicle.
TIRE FAILURE DUE TO IMPACT DAMAGE /
IMPROPER MAINTENANCE.
Tires should be inspected regularly by a qualified
technician for signs of damage, such as punctures or
impacts.
TIRE FAILURE DUE TO IMPROPER REPAIRS.
See Rubber Manufacturer’s Association (RMA) es-
tablished repair procedures at www.rma.org and/or
go to www.goodyear.com for information on proper
repair procedures.
EXPLOSION OF TIRE/RIM ASSEMBLY DUE TO
IMPROPER MOUNTING.
Only specially-trained persons should mount tires.
When mounting tires, use safety cage and clip-on
extension air hose to inflate.
FAILURE TO MOUNT RADIAL TIRES ON APPROVED
RIMS.
FAILURE TO DEFLATE SINGLE OR DUAL ASSEMBLIES
COMPLETELY BEFORE DEMOUNTING.
TIRE SPINNING.
On slippery surfaces such as snow, mud, ice, etc., do
not spin tires in excess of 35 mph (55 kph), as
indicated on the speedometer.
EXCESSIVE WHEEL SPINNING.
This can also result in tire disintegration or axle fail-
ure. WARNING: Vehicle handling, traction, ride comfort and
other performance parameters may be significantly af-
fected by a change in tire size or type. Before replacing
tires, always consult and follow the vehicle Owner’s
Manual because some vehicle
manufacturers prohibit
changing tire size. When selectin g tires that are different
from the original equipment size make certain: (1) The
tires have adequate load carrying capacity based on the
vehicle placard, (2) The tires have sufficient inflation
pressure to carry the load and (3) There is proper clear-
ance with no interference points between the tire and
vehicle. The consumer must be aware to always drive
safely and obey all traffic laws. Avoid sudden, sharp
turns or lane changes. Failure to follow any of these
warnings may result in loss of control of the vehicle,
leading to an accident and serious injury or death.
TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
The easiest way t o help ensure satisf actory mileage and
performance from your Goodyear or Dunlop tires is to
give them a simple but frequent (at least monthly) in-
spection for proper inflation, ev en treadwear, and the
presence of any damage.
DO MAINTAIN PROPE R INFLATIONPRESSURE
IN YOUR TIRES
Proper inflation pressure is necessary for optimum tire
performance, safety and fuel economy. Check inflation
pressures at least once a month and before long trips. Use
an accurate tire pressure gauge. Always check pressures
when the tires are cold (when the vehicle has been driven
less than one mile). If you must check inflation when the
tires are hot, add 4 psi (27 kPa) to the recommended cold inflation pressure. It is difficult to tell just by looking at
radial tires whether they are underinflated.*
Furthermore, when operating a vehicle equipped with
radial tires, it is difficult to notice when a tire has gone
flat or nearly flat since the “feel” of the vehicle does not
change significantly.
*Evidence of air loss or repeated underinflation always
requires expert inspection to determine the source of
leakage and tire r
emoval todetermine repairability. To
avoid injury, NEVER attempt to reinflate a tire that has
been run severely underinflated.
Progressive air loss may result f rom punctures, cuts, curb-
ing, impacts or partial bead unseating. Some fitment
causes for air loss are (1) incomplete bead seating, (2)
bead tearing caused by a machine tool due to insufficient
lubrication or improper adjustment, (3) leaking valve core
or rubber valve components should be replaced when
problems are detected and whenever tires are replaced.
Always maintain inflation pressure at the level recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer as shown on the
vehicle placard, vehicle certification label or in the ve-
hicle Owner’s Manual:
Underinflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may
result in severe cracking, component separation or “blow-
out.” It reduces tire load capacity, allows excessive side-
wall flexing and increases rolling resistance, resulting in
heat and mechanical damage. Maintaining proper infla-
tion pressure is the single most important thing you can do
to promote tire durabilityand maximize tread life.
Overinflation increases stiffness, which may deteriorate
ride and generate unwanted vibration. Overinflation
also increases the chances of impact damage.
