FALKEN LIMITED WARRANTY
This limited warranty applies to Falken
brand Original Equipment Passenger Car,
Temporary Spare, and Light Truck steel
belted radial tires bearing the complete
description and serial number required by
the Department of Transportation (DOT).
This warranty is effective only to tires for
which claims are made within 6 (six)
years of the date of production, based on
the tire DOT serial number.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR
HOW LONG
Falken tires that are originally equipped
on this vehicle are warranted against any
defects in the materials and
workmanship for the usable life of the
original tread. The limited warranty
terminates at the flush appearance of
the tread wear indicators at 1.6mm
(2/32 of an inch) remaining tread depth.
Free Replacement
If a tire becomes unserviceable due to
such defect within the first 1.6mm
(2/32 of an inch) of tread wear, the tire
will be replaced free of charge with the
same or comparable Falken tire
(mounting and balancing labor covered).
Prorated Replacement
After the first 1.6mm (2/32 of an inch) of
wear, a prorated adjustment credit will
be given based on the percentage of
remaining usable tread depth, down to
the remaining 1.6mm (2/32 of an inch)
tread wear bar indicator (mounting and
balancing labor covered). No credit is
given if the tire is worn beyond the flush
appearance of the tread wear bar
indicator (less than 1.6mm (2/32 of an
inch) tread depth remaining).Out-of-Round / Out-of-Balance
Replacement
Tires that are deemed to be out-of-round
or out-of-balance will be accepted for
adjustment during the first 0.8mm
(1/32 of an inch) of the original tread
depth and will be replaced free of charge
with the same or similar Falken tires
(mounting and balancing labor covered).
A set of four (4) tires from the same
vehicle will not be accepted for
out-of-round or out-of-balance claims.
