This Limited Warranty and Adjustment

North America, Inc. (the “Company”) and is
applicable for Continental/General-brand
original equipment tires and is a promise of
replacement under certain specified conditions.
This Policy applies to tires in normal service
displaying adjustable conditions (see Section
4) and does not require the existence of a
workmanship or material related condition
in order to qualify for adjustment. THIS
POLICY IS NOT A WARRANTY THAT
YOUR TIRE WILL NOT FAIL OR BECOME
UNSERVICEABLE IF NEGLECTED OR
MISTREATED.
1. ELIGIBILITY
a. This Policy applies to the owner of Passenger Car, Light Truck and Serva-Spare

tires, used on the vehicle on which they
were originally installed by the vehicle
manufacturer.
c. Tires branded “used” are not eligible under
this Policy.
2. WHAT IS THE ADJUSTMENT
POLICY AND FOR HOW LONG?
Limited warranty coverage is for a maximum
period of 72 months from the date of
purchase* , determined by the new vehicle
registration date or new vehicle sales invoice
showing date of purchase.

Spare tire, used in normal service, becomes
