HIGHWAY AUTO AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRE REPLACEMENT
AND ADJUSTMENT POLICY (EXCLUDES GOODYEAR UN-
ISTEEL姞 RADIAL LIGHT TRUCK TIRES)
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
You are eligible for the benefits of this Limited Warranty
if you meet all the following criteria:
●
You are the owner or authorized agent of the owner of
new Goodyear or Dunlop highway auto or light truck
tires supplied as Original Equipment on your vehicle.
●
Your tires bear Department of Transportation pre-
scribed tire identification numbers.
●
Your tires have been used only on the vehicle on
which they were originally installed according to the
vehicle manufacturer or Goodyear’s recommenda-
tions.
●
Your tires were purchased on or after March 01,
2009.
Light truck tires are defined as all tires identified with
the “LT” designation in the sidewall stamping plus the
8-19.5 and 8R19.5 sizes which do not carry the “LT”
designation.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG?
FREE TIRE REPLACEMENT
Any new Goodyear or Dunlop highway radial auto or
radial light truck tire, covered by this policy, removed
from service due to a covered warranty condition during
the first 2/32” of usable treadwear or twelve months
from date of purchase, whichever comes first, will be
replaced with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop
tire at no charge, including mounting and balancing.
(Without proof of purchase the date of manufacture will
be used to determine eligibility.)
ALL OTHER HIGHWAY AUTO OR LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
Any new Goodyear or Dunlop highway auto or light truck
tire, other than radial auto, radial light truck tires, re-
moved from service due to a covered warranty condition
during the first 1/32” of usable treadwear will be re-
placed with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop tire
at no charge, including mounting and balancing.
TEMPORARY SPARE TIRES
Any Goodyear or Dunlop temporary spare tire removed
from service due to a covered warranty condition during
the first 50% of usable treadwear (1/32”) will be re-
placed with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop tem-
porary spare tire at no charge, including mounting.
PRORATED ADJUSTMENT
Tires not eligible for free replacement that are removed
from service due to a covered warranty condition will be
replaced with a comparable new Goodyear or Dunlop
tire on a prorated basis for up to six (6) years from the
date of original new tire purchase or when the treadwear
indicators become visible (worn to 2/32”), whichever
occurs first. (Without proof of purchase the date of
manufacture will be used to determine eligibility.)
HOW WILL PRORATED CHARGES BE CALCULATED?
Replacement price will be calculated by multiplying the
tire’s advertised retail selling price at the time of adjust-
ment by the percentage of usable original tread that has
been worn off. You pay for mounting and balancing, and
an amount equal to the current Federal Excise Tax (F.E.T.
– U.S. only) any other applicable taxes and government-
mandated charges.
EXAMPLE: If your disabled tire had an original 8/32” of
usable treadwear and is worn to 4/32” usable tread
remaining, you have used 50%, and therefore must pay
50% of the advertised retail selling price of the compa-
rable tire.
In addition, you must pay an amount equal to the full
current Federal Excise Tax (U.S. only) or any other appli-
cable taxes and government-mandated charges for the
comparable new replacement tire at the time of adjust-
ment. If the price of the new comparable tire is $80, the
cost to you would be $40 plus F.E.T. (U.S. only) plus any
other applicable taxes and government-mandated
charges.
WHAT IS A COMPARABLE TIRE?
A “comparable” new Goodyear or Dunlop tire will be the
same brand tire and may either be the same line of tire
or, in the event that the tire is not available, the same
brand tire with the same basic construction and quality
with a different sidewall or tread configuration. If a
higher priced tire is accepted as replacement, the differ-
ence in price will be at an additional charge to you.
Any replacement tire provided pursuant to this warranty
will be covered by the Goodyear or Dunlop warranty in
effect at the time of replacement.
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
A tire has delivered its full original tread life and the
coverage of this limited warranty ends when the tread-
wear indicators become visible (worn to 2/32”), or six
(6) years from the date of new tire purchase, whichever
occurs first. (Without proof of purchase the date of
manufacture will be used to determine eligibility.)
