Replacement Price
Radial passenger and light truck tires adjusted under this Limited 
Warranty will be replaced free of charge during the first 25% of tread 
wear or within 12 months from the date of purchase (proof of purchase 
date required; without proof of purchase date, then within 12 months 
from the date of tire manufacture), whichever occurs first. During the 
free replacement period, mounting and balancing are included free  
of charge.
To determine the replacement price after the free tire replacement 
period, the percent of used tread wear is multiplied by the current 
selling price for the replacement tire(s). The appropriate taxes, 
mounting, balancing, disposal fee, and other service charges may be 
added to the adjustment replacement price.
In Canada, the tire will be adjusted at dealerships (subject to dealer 
discretion) at a predetermined “Adjustment Price.” 
Replacement Warranty
If you receive a replacement tire under this Limited Warranty, it will be 
covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, if any, given on that tire at  
that time.
 
Where To Go
 
Tire adjustments under this Limited Warranty will only be made at an 
authorized Bridgestone Firestone retailer. Consult a phone directory

your tires regularly inspected and rotated per the recommendations 
outlined in the sections of this manual entitled “Tire Damage, 
Inspection and Service Life” and “Radial Tire Rotation” and to furnish 
proof of same in order to receive an adjustment. Such proof should 
show the date, mileage, and servicing location. A sales receipt

condition during the first 2/32” (inch) treadwear or 12 months from 
date of purchase, whichever comes first, will be replaced with a 
comparable new Goodyear tire without charge. You pay only for 
the mounting and balancing. (Without proof of purchase, date of 
manufacture will be used to determine eligibility.)
2.
 Prorated Tire Replacement  – Tires worn beyond the first 2/32” 
(inch) treadwear that become unserviceable due to a covered

maximum 1/4” (inch) puncture in the repairable area of the original 
tread will qualify for a one-time credit during the life of the original 
tread within four (4) years from the date of the casing DOT serial 
number or proof of purchase, if available. Sealant credit is based 
on local currencies in the country where the adjustment takes 
place, $50.00 for both the U.S. and Canada.
4.
 TIRES WITH DURASEAL TECHNOLOGY — SEALANT 
CREDIT DURING FIRST RETREAD* – Failure of the DuraSeal 
Technology to seal a maximum 1/4” (inch) puncture in the 
repairable area of the tread will qualify for a one-time credit 
through 100% of the first retread up to four (4) years from the date 
of the casing DOT serial number or proof of purchase, if available. 
Sealant credit is based on local currencies in the country where 
the adjustment takes place, $25.00 for both the U.S. and Canada. 
All punctures must be repaired at time of retreading for this 
Limited Warranty to be honored. If a sealant credit was issued 
during the original tread life, no other requests for credit will  
be honored. 
 
*All claim forms submitted for sealant credit must be verified by an 
authorized Goodyear representative.
How Will The Prorated Charges Be Calculated?
The replacement price will be calculated by multiplying the current 
Goodyear advertised selling price, at the adjustment location, by the 
percentage of usable original tread that has been worn off at the time 
of adjustment. You pay for mounting, balancing, an amount equal to 
the full current Federal Excise Tax (FET – U.S. only) and any other 
applicable taxes for the comparable new Goodyear replacement tire as 
well as any government-mandated charges.
Example:
If your disabled tire had an original 16/32” (inch) of usable tread depth 
and is worn to 8/32” (inch) of usable tread remaining, you have used 
50% and therefore must pay 50% of the advertised selling price of 
a comparable tire, plus an amount equal to the full current Federal 
Excise Tax (U.S. only) applicable to the comparable new replacement
