no later than April 30th of the following year. Michelin® winter tires require
documentation of the timing of the installation and removal of the tires each winter to
maintain coverage under the limited warranty for treadwear.
An important reminder:
No tire manufacturer can guarantee you a certain number of miles from a given tire.
D r

iving habits, driving conditions, road conditions, and vehicle maintenance all play a
part in the tread life of a tire. If a tire does not reach the warranted mileage, and the
owner of the tires has complied with the terms and conditions of the warranty, Michelin®
will replace the tires as described under “How Replacement Charges are calculated”.
Temporary Spares
Michelin® temporary spare tires are covered by this warranty for six years from the date
o f

purchase or until the first 2/32 of an inch (1.6 mm) of the original tread is worn off.
D a

te of purchase is documented by new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no
proof of purchase is available, coverage will be based on date of manufacture. At that
time, all warranties, express or implied, expire.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:
• R oad hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact damage or puncture)
•
Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance or improper repair
•
Misapplication, improper maintenance, racing, underinflation, overinflation or other
a
buse
• U neven or rapid wear which is caused by mechanical irregularity in the vehicle such as
w
heel misalignment, (a measured tread difference of 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) or
m o

re across the tread on the same tire)
• A ccident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or vandalism
•
Use in commercial applications for tread wear; by this warranty for six years
•
Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake lock
•
The addition of liquid, solid or gaseous materials other than air, nitrogen or carbon
d
ioxide (for example, waterbase sealers or balancing substances)
• C osmetic ozone or weather cracking
•
Use of Michelin® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires without a properly operating
l
ow air pressure warning system
HOW REPLACEMENT CHARGES ARE CALCULATED
Passenger and Light Truck Tires
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition covered by this workmanship and
ma

terials limited warranty will be replaced with a comparable new Michelin® tire, free of
charge, when 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) or less of the original tread is worn, (or 25%
o r

less, whichever is more beneficial to the user) and within 12 months of the date of
p u

rchase. Mounting and balancing of the tire is included. You pay the cost of any other

MICHELIN®
122
service charges and applicable taxes. When more than 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of
or
iginal tread has been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is more beneficial to the
user) or after 12 months from the date of purchase, you must pay the cost of a
c o

mparable new Michelin® passenger or light truck replacement tire on a pro rata basis.
The retailer will determine the charge by multiplying the percentage of the original usable
tread worn, by the current selling price at the adjustment location or the price in the
current Michelin® Base Price List, whichever is lower. This list is based on a
predetermined price intended to fairly represent the actual selling price of the tire. You
pay the cost of mounting, balancing and any other service charges and applicable taxes.
Treadwear
A tire meeting the conditions for prorated replacement, which wears evenly across the
t r

ead, down to the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch tread remaining) within six
years of the date of purchase, and before delivering the warranted miles of service, will
be replaced with a comparable new Michelin® tire based on mileage received. The
participating Michelin® tire retailer will determine the charge by multiplying the percent
of mileage received by the current actual selling price at the adjustment location or the
price of the tire in the current Michelin® Base Price List, whichever is lower. This list is
based on a predetermined price intended to fairly represent the actual selling price of
the tire. You pay the cost of mounting, balancing and any other dealer services and
applicable taxes. Tires which wear out evenly before delivering the warranted mileage
will be replaced on a pro rata basis only if:
1. Y ou are the original purchaser of the tires, you own the vehicle on which they were
o
riginally installed, and the tires have been used only on that vehicle.
2. T he tires have been rotated and inspected by a participating Michelin® tire retailer
e
very 7,500 miles, and the attached Mounting and Rotation Service Record has been
f u

lly completed and signed.
3. T he completed Service Record form, Original Owner/Tire Installation Information
f
orm, and the Original Invoice are presented to a participating Michelin® tire retailer
at the time of adjustment claim.
4. T he tires have not become unserviceable due to a condition listed under WHAT IS
N
OT COVERED.

TIRE DISABLEMENT
SAFETY WARNING
Any tire may fail as a result of an improperly repaired puncture, impact damage, improper
in

flation, overloading or other conditions resulting from use or misuse. Tire failures, such
as a rapid air loss or a tread and belt detachment, may increase risk of injury or death
and/or property damage. To reduce the risk of a tire failure, Michelin® recommends you
thoroughly read and follow the recommendations in the Michelin® Owner’s Manual,
vehicle Owner’s Manual, tire placard information, and tire sidewall information regarding
safety warnings, proper tire use and maintenance.
CONTROLLABILITY
Controlling a vehicle when a tire failure occurs
If a tire failure occurs, you may hear a loud noise, feel a vibration, and/or the vehicle may
p u

ll toward the side of the failed tire. If possible, step on the accelerator momentarily to
maintain forward momentum and ensure vehicle control. It is most important that you

TEMPORARY TYPE SPARE TIRES
When using any temporary type spare tire, be sure to follow the vehicle manufacturer’s
in

structions.
READING THE DOT
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (prior to August 2000)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (1990-1999)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXXX (after July 2000)
THE DOT
The “DOT” symbol certifies tire manufacturer’s compliance with US Department of
Transportation tire safety standards. Next to the symbol is the tire identification or “serial
number”. The first two characters identify the plant where the tire was manufactured.
The next two characters reflect the tire size. The following one to four digits may be used
at the tire manufacturer’s option as a descriptive code. The last three characters are
numbers identifying the week and year of manufacture. (Example: “O25” means second
week of the year of decade, eg.: 1995, 1985, etc.) For the 1990-1999 decade
MICHELIN® brand tires are marked with a triangle pointing to the last three numeric
characters. Tires produced after July 2000 have an additional digit to identify a given
decade. For example, 2800 means the tire was produced during the 28th week of 2000;
0 2

01 during the 2nd week of 2001. If the last digits of your DOT number contains three
numeric characters and is not marked with a triangle, consult a qualified tire technician
to determine the year of manufacture.
SERVICE LIFE FOR PASSENGER CAR AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES INCLUDING SPARE
TIRES
The following recommendation applies to passenger car and light truck tires. Tires are
composed of various types of material and rubber compounds, having performance
properties essential to the proper functioning of the tire itself. These component
properties evolve over time. For each tire, this evolution depends upon many factors
such as weather, storage conditions, and conditions of use (load, speed, inflation
pressure, maintenance etc.) to which the tire is subjected throughout its life. This
service-related evolution varies widely so that accurately predicting the serviceable life
of any specific tire in advance is not possible.
That is why, in addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure maintenance by
c o

nsumers, it is recommended to have passenger car and light truck tires, including
spare tires, inspected regularly by a qualified tire specialist, such as a tire dealer, who
will assess the tire’s suitability for continued service. Tires which have been in use for five
years or more should continue to be inspected by a specialist at least annually.
Consumers are strongly encouraged to be aware not only of their tires’ visual condition
and inflation pressure but also of any change in dynamic performance such as increased
air loss, noise or vibration, which could be an indication that the tires need to be removed
from service to prevent tire failure. It is impossible to predict when tires should be

as measured from shoulder to shoulder on the claim tire, and compared to the
remaining tread depth of the opposite front/rear or left/right tire.
• C omplete and sign the Nexen Tire Claim Adjustment form provided by the dealer, keep
a
copy for your records and leave the tire with the dealer for warranty processing.

available, towing will be provided free of charge to the nearest Nexen Tire dealer or
authorized place of repair.
*Nexen Tire reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of all warranties at
a n

y time.
TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
Tire failure can result in serious damage and/or personal injury. To reduce the risk of tire
failure we recommend the following:
• M aintain proper inflation pressure and do not use at underinflation or overinflation.
P
ressure should be set at the level recommended by vehicle manufacturer.
• W heel alignment and balancing should be checked at regular intervals.
•
Do not overload. The maximum load carrying capacity is molded on the sidewall of the
t
ire.
• D o not spin your tires excessively and avoid driving over curbs, potholes, obstacles
a
nd edges of pavement.
• N ever drive on smooth (bald) tires. By law, tires must be replaced when 2/32 of an
i
nch of tread depth remained, as indicated by tread wear indicator molded in the tread
grooves.
• C heck your tires frequently for any scrapes, cuts, foreign objects, separations or
b
ulges. If damage is found, do not attempt to dismount a tire yourself. Change
damaged tire with the spare and contact a local authorized Nexen Tire dealer imme -
diately.
• D o not drive in excess of speed limits allowed by law or the maximum speed justified
b
y driving conditions.
• T o achieve proper even wear and gain maximum tread life, tire rotation at regular
i
ntervals is required.
