2018 DODGE DURANGO SRT air condition

SAFETY WARNING:
Ignoring any of the safety and information contained in this limited
warranty and Adjustment Policy may result in tire failure, causing
serious injury or death.
•Tire failure due to underinflation/overloading.Follow vehicle own-
er ’s manual or tire placard in vehicle for proper inflation and loading.
•Explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper tire mounting.Ti re
mounting / demounting can be dangerous. It should be performed
only by a trained tire specialist using proper tools and procedures.
Prior to tire mounting/demounting, the Rubber Manufacturers Asso-
ciation (RMA) wall charts and manuals should be read to obtain the
proper procedures. The failure to follow these procedures may result
in faulty positioning of the tire and/or rim, which may cause the
assembly to burst with force sufficient to cause injury or death.
•Tire failure due to damage.Inspect your tires frequently for scrapes,
bulges, separations, cuts, snags and other damage from road hazards.
Damage from impact can occur to the inner portions of your tire
without being visible to the outside. If you suspect a tire has been
damaged from striking anything unusual in the road, you must have
the tire removed from the rim and inspected both inside and out by a
trained tire specialist. Air loss or unusual tire wear can also be warning
signs that a tire may have internal damage. If you notice these
conditions, have your tire inspected by a trained individual.
•Tire failure due to excessive tire spinning.Avoid tire spinning. The
centrifugal force generated by a free-spinning tire/rim assembly may
cause a sudden tire explosion resulting in vehicle damage and/or
serious injury or death. Never exceed 35 mph (55 km/h) as indicated
on your speedometer when your vehicle is stuck in snow, mud, or
sand and your tire(s) is/are spinning. Use a gentle backward and
forward rocking motion to free your vehicle for continued driving.
Never stand or permit anyone else to stand near or behind a tire
spinning while attempting to push a vehicle that is stuck.

similar performance attributes with a different sidewall or tread configu-
ration. If a higher priced tire is accepted as replacement, the difference in
price will be at an additional charge to you. Any replacement tire
provided pursuant to this warranty will be covered by the 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 manufac-
ture will be used to determine eligibility.)
LIMITATIONS
This limited warranty is applicable only in the United States and Canada.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY?

•Goodyear does not warrant or give credit in any adjustment transac-
tion for any kind of material added to a tire (e.g., tire fillers, sealants,
balancing substances) after the tire leaves a factory producing Good-
year or Dunlop tires, nor will it adjust any tire that has failed as a result
of adding such material.
•Irregular wear or damage due to mechanical condition of the vehicle,
improper inflation, overloading, high speed spin-up, misapplication,
misuse, negligence, racing, use of tire chains, improper mounting or
demounting, improper repair, wreck, collision or fire.

WHAT ARE YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS?
No Representative or Dealer has authority to make any representation,
promise or agreement on behalf of Goodyear, except as stated herein. Any
tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail in service or otherwise
become unserviceable due to conditions beyond the control of the
manufacturer. Under no circumstances is this warranty a representation
that a tire failure cannot occur.

is important for proper tire load distribution and function. The maximum
load capacity stamped on the sidewalls of P-Metric & European Metric
tires is reduced by 10% when used on a light truck, utility vehicle or
trailer. Never fit P-Metric or European Metric tires to light trucks that
specify LT-type replacement tires.
DON’T SPIN YOUR TIRES EXCESSIVELY
Avoid excessive tire spinning when your vehicle is stuck in snow, ice,
mud or sand. The centrifugal forces generated by a free-spinning
tire/wheel assembly may cause sudden tire explosion, resulting in
vehicle damage and/or serious personal injury to you or a bystander.
Never exceed 35 mph / 55 kph, as indicated on your speedometer. Use a
gentle backward and forward rocking motion to free your vehicle for
continued driving. Never stand near or behind a tire spinning at high
speeds, for example, while attempting to push a vehicle that is stuck or
when an on-the-car spin balance machine is in use.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR WEAR
Always remove tires from service when they reach two thirty-seconds of
an inch (2/32) remaining tread depth. All new tires have tread wear
indicators which appear as smooth banks in the tread grooves when they
wear to the two thirty seconds of an inch (2/32) level. Many wet weather
accidents result from skidding on bald or nearly bald tires. Excessively
worn tires are also more susceptible to penetrations.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR DAMAGE
Frequent (at least monthly) inspection of your tires for signs of damage
and their general condition is important for safety. If you have any
questions, have your tire Dealer inspect them. Impacts, penetrations,
cracks, knots, bulges or air loss always require tire removal and expert
inspection. Never perform a temporary repair or use an inner tube as a
substitute for a proper repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
PROPER TIRE REPAIR
NOTE:Goodyear does not warrant any inspection or repair process.
The repair is entirely the responsibility of the repairer and should be
made in accordance with established Rubber Manufacturers Association
(RMA) procedures.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Alert
Refer to your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for more information on what to
do if the tire pressure warning system activates.
THE CONVENIENCE (TEMPORARY) SPARE
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare is designed, built and tested to the
high engineering standards set by North America’s leading car manufac-
turers and to Goodyear ’s own high standards of quality control. It is
designed to take up a minimum of storage space and, at the same time,
fulfill the function of a spare tire when needed. The spare is kept in its
storage space, fully inflated at 60 psi. To be sure it is always ready for use,
the air pressure should be checked on a regular basis.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare can be used in combination with the
original tires on your vehicle. You can expect a tire tread life of up to 3,000
miles (4,800 kilometers), depending on road conditions and your driving
habits. To conserve tire tread life, return the spare to the storage area as
soon as it is convenient to have the standard tire repaired or replaced.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare weighs less than a standard tire so
it’s easier to handle. It also helps reduce the total car weight, which
contributes to fuel economy. The wheels used with the Convenience
(Temporary) Spare are specifically designed for use with high pressure
spares and should never be used with any other type tire.
DON’T ATTEMPT TO MOUNT YOUR OWN TIRES
Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly
due to improper mounting procedures. Follow tire manufacturer ’s
instructions and match tire diameter to rim diameter. Mount light truck
radials on rims approved for radial service. Do not apply bead sealer.
This can inhibit bead seating. Lubricate beads and tire rim (including
tube or flap) contact surfaces. Lock assembly on mounting machine or
place in safety cage. STAND BACK and never exceed 40 psi to seat beads.
Never use a volatile substance or a rubber “donut” (also known as a bead
expander or “O-Ring”) to aid bead seating. Only specially trained
persons should mount tires.

HOW TO READ A TIRE D.O.T. SERIAL NUMBER
D.O.T. stands for Department of Transportation and the number is on the
lower sidewall of each tire to show that the tire meets or exceeds the
Department of Transportation safety standards.
TIRE SERVICE LIFE
Tires are designed and built to provide many thousands of miles of
excellent service. For maximum benefit, tires must be maintained prop-
erly to avoid tire damage that may result in removal from service before
the tread is worn down to minimum depth.
It is not practical to accurately predict the service life of any specific tire
in chronological time since service conditions vary widely. The service-
ability of a tire over time is a function of the storage and service
conditions (inflation pressure, load, speed, road hazard injury, etc.) to
which a tire is subjected. Consumers should not rely solely on the
appearance of the tire, but should be aware of any change in dynamic
performance such as increased air loss, noise or vibration, which could be
a sign to remove the tire. Therefore, it is essential to have tires, including
spares, inspected regularly (at least monthly) for proper inflation pres-
sure, damage and treadwear.
Check your vehicle’s owner ’s manual (or your vehicle) to determine if
it is equipped with run-flat (extended mobility) tires. If your vehicle is
equipped with run-flat tires, the following applies:
GOODYEAR DUNLOP TIRES
134

TO PROLONG TIRE LIFE DURING A SYSTEM ALERT
The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire can be driven at low or zero air
pressure (refer to your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for these limitations). To
help prolong the life of a tire operating under low-inflation conditions,
drive at a speed as far below 50 mph (80 kph) as possible. Also, drive the
shortest distance possible before obtaining tire service. Taking these
precautions will increase the chance that your tire will be repairable.
SERVICE AFTER A SYSTEM ALERT
To obtain service after operating under low-inflation conditions, contact
your Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility. Trained service
personnel will inspect your tires to determine if they are in need of repair
or replacement. To locate the nearest authorized Goodyear or Dunlop
Run-Flat service facility, call 1-800- GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .
WARNING!
Because of the unique characteristics of Run-Flat tires, the wheels
on which they are mounted and your vehicle’s tire pressure
monitoring system, all tire service work other than routine inflation
maintenance and external inspections must be performed by service
personnel at a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility.
Do not attempt to mount or demount Run-Flat tires yourself; serious
injury or death could result. Only specially trained persons should
mount, demount and repair Run-Flat tires, and more than 40 psi
(270 kPa) may be required to seat beads. A safety cage and clip-on
extension air hose must be used if more than 40 psi (270 kPa) is need
to seat beads.
TIRE REPAIR
Like any other Goodyear or Dunlop speed-rated, high-performance tire,
the Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire may be repaired to correct a
puncture in the tread, but PROPER MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES
MUST BE USED. Contact a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility
for information on proper repairs. For the location of the nearest facility,
call 1-800-GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .

•WORN TIRES
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced by trained
personnel when 2/32 nds inch (1.6 mm) of tread depth remain, as
indicated by treadwear indicators molded into the tread grooves. Use
of worn-out tires (less than 2/32 nds of an inch remaining tread depth)
increases the probability of tire failure. In most states, it is illegal to
drive with less than 2/32 nds of an inch of remaining tread depth.
•SPEED LIMITS
Operating your vehicle in excess of lawful speed limits or the
maximum speeds justified by driving conditions can be dangerous.
Excessive speed creates heat buildup in a tire, leading to possible tire
failure.
•SPEED-RATED TIRES
Speed-rated tires are identified by letters S, T, H, V, W, or Z as either
part of the size designation (e.g., HR), or part of the service description
adjacent to the size designation (e.g., 94H) and indicates the maximum
speed capability of the tire when properly loaded and inflated.
However, even when properly loaded and inflated, driving for pro-
longed periods at high speeds can cause tire damage and possible tire
failure which could lead to an accident. Original equipment speed-
rated tires must be replaced with tires of the same or higher speed
rating if the speed capability of the vehicle is to be maintained.
Consult your Hankook dealer for the tires best suited to your vehicle
driving habit. Repairing of speed-rated tires must be done in accor-
dance with RMA repair procedures and is limited to one 1/4diameter
repair in the tread area.
•TIRE ROTATION
Rotate your tires for longer tire life. Front and rear tires perform
different jobs and can wear differently. Consult your vehicle Owner ’s
Manual for mileage recommendations and rotation patterns.
