SAFETY WARNING
Driving on Any Tire That Does Not Have the Correct
Inflation Pressure Is Dangerous
Any underinflated tire builds up excessive heat that may result in
sudden tire destruction. Refer to the tire placard on the vehicle (check
vehicle and/or vehicle owner’s manual for placard location) for the
recommended operating pressures. Do not exceed maximum pressure
indicated on the tire sidewall.
MICHELIN
11 7
Passenger and Light Truck Tire Limited Warranty
About This Warranty
As the original purchaser of a vehicle equipped with MICHELIN®
passenger or light truck tire, you are covered by all the benefits and
conditions (subject to the maintenance recommendations and safety
warnings) contained in this booklet. 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 booklet.
What Is Covered and for How Long?
MICHELIN passenger and light truck tires that are used in normal
service on the vehicle on which they were originally fitted are covered
as follows:
Workmanship and Materials
If there is a defect in workmanship and materials during the life of the\
original usable tread, or six (6) years from date of purchase (whichever
comes first), your tire may be replaced on a pro rata basis under this
warranty. After six (6) years or the wear of the original usable tread,
whichever occurs first, all warranties, expressed or implied, expire.
The “date of purchase” refers to the date on your sales invoice. I\
f you
cannot find your sales invoice, the date will be calculated based on the
date of manufacture which is molded on the sidewall of your tire.
The “life of the usable tread” refers to the original tread worn d\
own
evenly across the face of the tread to the level of the treadwear
indicators, which is 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of tread remaining.
Uneven wear is defined as a tread groove difference of 2/32nds of an
inch or more across the face of the tread on the same tire.
NITTO TIRE
149
The original usable tread is determined by measuring the depth on
the tread of an identical model of a new Nitto brand tire to the top of \
the treadwear indicator bars (note: the original usable tread depth will
vary by tire model).
The prorated cost of a replacement tire is determined as follows:
[(Original usable tread worn) ÷ (Original usable tread)]
x (Actual current dealer selling price).
A comparable Nitto brand tire is the same tire, or a tire of the
same basic construction and quality, as the original tire, as determined
by Nitto.
HOW TO MAKE A CLAIM
To make a claim under this Limited Warranty, you must: 1.
Present your vehicle with the subject tire(s), to an authorized
Nitto dealer.
2.
Complete and sign the Nitto Limited Warranty Claim form
provided by the dealer.
3.
Keep a copy of the Claim form for your records, and leave the
subject tire with the dealer.
Your claim will be administered in accordance with the limited warranty
that was in effect when you purchased the vehicle new.
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also
have other rights which vary from state to state.
LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
NITTO DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR
A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL
AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (e.g., loss of time, loss of
use of vehicle, towing charges, road services, cost of rental car,
inconveniences, etc.).
NITTO TIRE
159
IDENTIFYING DAMAGED TIRES•
If your tire strikes a road hazard at any speed, internal tire damage
could result, which may lead to sudden tire failure and loss of
vehicle control. Tire failure may even occur miles after the initial
impact. Impact damage from such hazards may not be visible on
the outside of the tire. Have your Nitto dealer dismount the tire and
inspect it for damage. A tire may not have visible signs of damage
on the tire surface or the interior.
•
If the impact was sufficient to bend the wheel flange, internal
tire damage may have occurred, compromising the safety and
integrity of the tire. Such impact damage may result in a sudden
tire failure many weeks or months later. Tire replacement is highly
recommended as a safety precaution.
•
Indications of impact damage include, but are not limited to, a
bubble or a blister on the outside of the tire.
•
Have your dealer inspect your tires if you see anything unusual
or if cuts, cracks, splitting, or bruises in the tread and sidewall
areas are visible. Bumps or bulges may indicate a serious and
dangerous separation within the tire body. Have your tire inspected
by a qualified tire service person. It may be necessary to have the
tire removed from the wheel for a complete inspection.
•
Inspect your tires for adequate tread depth. When the tire is worn
to the built-in indicators at 2/32” (1.6 mm) or less tread groove
depth, the tire is worn out and must be replaced. Never drive on
tires to the point that the tire cord or the fabric is exposed.
•
Inspect your tires for uneven wear. Wear on one side of the tread
or flat spots in the tread may indicate alignment or other problems
with the tires or the vehicle. Consult your authorized Nitto dealer.
PIRELLI

Other Warranties
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS THE ONLY EXPRESS WARRANTY
GIVEN BY PIRELLI. PIRELLI DOES NOT MAKE ANY OTHER
EXPRESS WARRANTY, AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES,
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED TO THE APPLICABLE DURATION OF
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. PIRELLI DOES NOT AUTHORIZE ANY
OTHER PERSON, INCLUDING AUTHORIZED PIRELLI DEALERS
OR VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS, OR VEHICLE DEALERS, TO
CHANGE THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR CREATE ANY OTHER
OBLIGATION IN CONNECTION WITH PIRELLI TIRES.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty
lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
What Is the Standard Limited Warranty Coverage?
If an eligible Pirelli tire becomes unserviceable due to workmanship
or material defects within the first year from the date of purchase
or within the first 2/32” of the original usable tread , whichever
occurs first, the tire will be replaced with an identical or comparable
Pirelli tire at no charge to the owner, including mounting and balancing
(subject to applicable limitations). Miscellaneous fees and taxes are
not covered under this Limited Warranty.
If a Pirelli tire becomes unserviceable due to workmanship or material
defects (other than ride-related complaints and Road Hazard) following
the initial warranty period above, the owner must pay the pro-rata
cost for a comparable Pirelli Replacement Tire. Owner is responsible
for mounting and balancing charges. An authorized Pirelli dealer will
determine the pro-rata cost by multiplying the percentage of
the original usable tread that has been worn by the current dealer
selling price.
When the treadwear indicators become visible (2/32” tread depth
remaining), regardless of age or mileage, the tire is considered to be \
100% worn and will not be covered by this Limited Warranty.

Limitations and Exclusions
All implied warranties, including any warranty of merchantability or
fitness for a particular purpose, are expressly limited to the duration of
this written warranty.
All obligations or liabilities for loss of time, inconvenience, loss of \
vehicle use or any other incidental or consequential damages are
hereby excluded. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an
implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages so the above limitations or exclusions may

operation. This must be done immediately after any known or
suspected contact with an object in the road, a pothole, road
irregularity or after severe braking. Refer these conditions to a
reputable tire service center for repair or replacement. Never drive
on a tire if such conditions appear.
Tire Loading
Never exceed the maximum vehicle load limit listed on the vehicle
placard, tire information label or in the owners manual. Be aware of the\
load carrying limits molded into the tire’s sidewall and do not exceed
those limits. Maximum load can only be carried at the maximum cold
inflation pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
Speed Limits
Regardless of the speed capability of your tires, never exceed lawful
speeds or speeds dictated by driving conditions.
Hazards
Objects in the road that could damage your tires should be safely
avoided. These objects include: potholes, glass, metal, rocks, wood
debris and the like. Unavoidable contact should prompt a thorough
tire inspection.
Air Pressure
Air pressure maintenance is critical to tire service life. Tire pressures
must be checked frequently when tires are cold (before operation, cool
to the touch) and no less than once per month and before extended
operation. Use a tire gauge to check pressure and maintain it per the
vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations (on vehicle placard or in
owner’s manual). Do not reduce pressure when tire is hot and do not
inflate a cold tire higher than limits molded on the tire’s sidewall. Do not
overlook spare tire inflation pressure.
Tire Tread
Tires must be replaced when the depth of the tread reaches 2/32
inch (1.6 mm). YOKOHAMA tires are manufactured with tread wear
indicators molded into the tire grooves which indicate tread wearout. As
tires wear down to 2/32 inch (1.6mm), and tread depth is reduced, tire
