WHO IS COVEREDThe owner of a BFGoodrich Passenger or Light Truck tire
which bears the BFGoodrich name and complete DOT
identifi cation number.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
BFGoodrich Passenger and Light Truck tires, used in normal
service on the vehicle on which they were originally fi tted
and in accordance with the maintenance recommendations
and safety warnings contained in the owner’s manual and
in the Important Tire Safety Information Section of this
booklet, are covered by this warranty against defects in
workmanship and material for the life of the original usable
tread, or 6 years from the date of purchase, whichever
comes fi rst. At that time, all warranties, express or implied,
are terminated. The usable tread is the original tread
down to the level of the tread wear indicators - 2/32nds
of an inch (1.6mm) of tread remaining. Date of purchase
is documented by new vehicle registration or tire sales
invoice. If no proof of purchase, coverage will be based
on date of manufacture.
WHAT IS NOT COVEREDTires which become unserviceable due to:
• Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact damage, puncture, whether repairable or not);
• Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance, or improper repair;
• Underinfl ation, overinfl ation, improper maintenance or other abuse;
• Mechanical irregularity in the vehicle such as wheel misalignment resulting in uneven or rapid wear;
• Accident, fi re, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or vandalism;
• Ozone or weather cracking.
WHAT BFGOODRICH WILL DO
PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition
covered by this warranty will be replaced with a comparable
new BFGoodrich tire, free of charge, when 2/32nds of an
inch (1.6mm) or less of the original tread is worn, (or 25%
or less, whichever is most benefi cial to the user) and within
12 months of the date of purchase. Mounting and balancing
of tires is included. The cost of any other service charges
and applicable taxes are payable by the user.
When more than 2/32nds of an inch of original tread has
been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is most benefi cial
to the user) or after 12 months from date of purchase, the
user must pay the cost of a comparable new BFGoodrich
passenger or light truck replacement tire on a pro rata basis.
The dealer shall determine the charge by multiplying the
percentage of the original usable tread worn by the current
actual selling price at the adjustment location or the price on
the current BFGoodrich Brand 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. The
cost of mounting, balancing and any other service charges
and applicable taxes are payable by the user.

IMPORTANT SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
INFORMATION!
Any tire, no matter how well constructed, can fail as a result
of punctures, impact damage, improper infl ation or other
conditions resulting from use. Tire failures may create a risk
of property damage or personal injury. To reduce the risk
of tire failure, we strongly recommend the following:
WARNING!
SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT FROM:
1. Tire failure due to underinfl ation, vehicle overloading,
or use in excess of legal speeds – follow owner’s
manual or tire information placard in your vehicle.
2. Explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting – only specially trained persons should

TO MAKE A CLAIM UNDER THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY
In the event that you make a claim under the terms of the
warranty, you must:
(1) P resent your tires, and your vehicle to an authorized Toyo
Dealer. (Call consumer relations at (800) 442-8696
or check dealer locator at http://www.toyo.com for the

for warranty processing.

service requirements or in obtaining tire warranty
service from the tire manufacturer.
The consumer is entitled to an adjustment in accordance with
the warranty that was in effect when the tire was installed
on the vehicle as original equipment. The adjustment
policy provides for replacement with a comparable new
Toyo tire if a Toyo tire becomes unserviceable due to an
adjustable condition verifi ed by Toyo’s inspection of the
tire. Free replacement or a pro-rated charge depends on the remaining usable tread when the tire is presented
for adjustment.

long an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation
of incidental or consequential damages, so the above
limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. No Toyo em-
ployee, representative or dealer has the authority to make
or imply any representation, promise or agreement which
in any way varies the terms of this warranty. This warranty
gives you specifi c legal rights and you may also have other
rights which vary from state to state.
Important: In accordance with Federal Law, this warranty
has been designated as a “Limited Warranty”.
Nothing in this warranty is intended to be
a
representation that tire failures cannot occur.
