warning DODGE DURANGO 2018 Vehicle Warranty

WARNING!
Goodyear and Dunlop Run-Flat tires are designed for use only on
certain original equipment wheels supplied with a properly
operating low tire pressure-monitoring system. If applied to a
vehicle without a properly operating low tire pressure monitoring
system, the tires may fail when operated in an underinflated
condition, resulting in loss of vehicle control and possible serious
injury or death. Application of these tires to a vehicle not equipped
with specified operational low tire pressure-monitoring system
constitutes improper and unsafe use of this product.

WARNING!
Property damage, serious personal injury or death may result if any
of the following safety precautions/recommendations are not
followed:
→Driving on any underinflated tire is dangerous and may result in
sudden tire destruction caused by excessive heat build-up. For
replacement tires, your tire retailer should provide you with the
proper inflation pressure. Otherwise, follow the air pressure
recommendation found within your vehicle’s owner manual or tire
placard in your vehicle. If your replacement tire size is different
from the original equipment tire size, ask your tire retailer for a
revised air pressure recommendation guide in order to adequately
support your vehicle’s GVWR.

KUMHO TIRES

WARNING!(Continued)
•Check the cold inflation pressure in all of your tires, including the
spare tire, at least once every week and always prior to long
distance trips. Failure to maintain the proper air inflation pressure
may result in improper vehicle handling, and may cause rapid and
irregular tire wear, reduction in tire durability, loss of vehicle
control, or sudden tire failure that may lead to property damage,
serious personal injury or death.
•Use an accurate tire gauge to check tire air pressures. Always
maintain the proper recommended air inflation pressure in all
tires. If there is an indication that one of your tires has lost four or
more pounds of air pressure, immediately look for signs of
penetration through the tire, valve leaks or wheel damage that may
account for the air loss. You should also have your tires inspected
by a tire retailer immediately.
•Air pressure should be checked when tires are cold (before they
have been driven), ideally in the early morning. Driving, regard-
less of distance, causes tires to heat up and simultaneously
increase air pressure.
•Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure for the tire.
•Never bleed air from hot tires as this may result in underinflation.
•→Inspect your tires daily. If you notice any damage to your tires
or wheels, replace them with a spare and immediately visit any tire
retailer for advice. Driving over potholes, curbs, wood debris,
metal, etc., can damage a tire and should be safely avoided. Contact
with such hazards requires an immediate and thorough tire
inspection by your tire retailer.
•Always examine your tires for penetrations, bulges, cracks, cuts,
and abnormal wear – particularly at the tire edges – which may be
caused by, for example, vehicle misalignment or tire underinfla-
tion. Failure to properly control a vehicle when one or more tires
are underinflated may result in an accident. Use of a damaged tire
may result in rapid air loss, including sudden tire failure.
•An explosion of the tire/rim assembly may occur due to improper
mounting. Only specially trained persons should mount tires.
•→Failure to store tires in accordance with the following recom-
mendations may result in damage to your tires, reduction in tire
durability, or sudden tire failure:

WARNING!(Continued)
•Tires should always be stored in a cool. dry, clean, indoor environ-
ment. Tires contain waxes and emollients to protect their outer
surfaces from ozone and weather cracking. As the tire rolls and
flexes, the waxes and emollients continually migrate to the tire’s
surface, replenishing this protection throughout the normal and
proper use of the tire. However, when tires sit outdoors and are
unused for an extended period of time, the tire surface becomes
dry, the tire may be susceptible to ozone and weather cracking, and
the casing becomes susceptible to flat spotting.
•Surfaces on which tires are stored must be free from grease,
gasoline, and other substances that could deteriorate the rubber.
•You should have a qualified technician check all tires where the
Kumho Tire U.S.A., Inc. warranty policy period has lapsed, even if
damage is not obvious.
•→Do not overload your tires. Driving on any overloaded tire is
extremely dangerous and may result in an accident causing prop-
erty damage, serious personal injury or death.
•The maximum load rating marked on the sidewall of any tire is
based on the maximum speed of operation. Tires that are loaded
beyond their maximum allowable loads for a particular applica-
tion will generate increased and excessive heat that may cause
sudden tire failure leading to property damage, serious personal
injury or death.

MICHELIN
Original Equipment Passenger & Light Truck Tire Owner ’s Manual &
Limited Warranty
MICHELIN® PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRE LIMITED
WARRANTY
ABOUT THIS WARRANTY
As the original purchaser of a MICHELIN® passenger or light truck tire,
you are covered by all the benefits and conditions (subject to the
maintenance recommendations and safety warnings) contained in this
booklet. To ensure your understanding of and compliance with the terms
and conditions of this warranty, please read it carefully. It is essential that
you also read and understand the safety and maintenance recommenda-
tions for tires contained in this booklet.
Limited Mileage Warranty:
MICHELIN passenger and light truck tires – replacement and original
equipment – are covered by a limited mileage warranty (hereafter
referred to as limited warranty for treadwear). For the mileage warranty
associated with each tire line, please see your Michelin tire retailer – or
visit us at
www.michelinman.com/promise.
Certain conditions and limitations apply. Mileage warranties vary by tire
line and certain exclusions may apply.
Self-Supporting Tires
Zero Pressure (ZP)
As the purchaser of a MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP)
passenger tire, mounted on a vehicle approved for ZP tires, equipped
with a properly operating low tire pressure warning system, you are
covered by this warranty. Please pay close attention to the Owner ’s
Manual part of this booklet since it provides specific safety and mainte-
nance information for your ZP tires.
MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires are part of a very
sophisticated system which is designed to provide a very simple benefit:
Peace of Mind. With these tires, you can maneuver the vehicle up to 50
miles (80 kilometers) at 55 mph (90 kph), unless otherwise specified in
MICHELIN
159

your vehicle owner ’s manual, even though the tire has lost all air! That
means time to exit from the highway and get to a place where the tire can
be inspected, replaced, or possibly returned to service. The distance that
can safely be travelled following an air loss incident will depend upon
the conditions under which the vehicle is operating, the degree of air loss,
the extent of the damage causing the air loss, the ambient temperature,
the load, and the operating speed of the vehicle. The fewer miles you
travel after an air loss incident, the greater the likelihood that the tire can
be re-inflated (or, if punctured, repaired) and returned to service.
Pax System
The MICHELIN® PAX® System is a very sophisticated system that
includes the tire, support ring and gel, pressure sensing device, and
wheel. In the event of a loss of tire air pressure, with this system you can
still carefully maneuver the vehicle at speeds up to 55 miles per hour, for
a distance of up to 125 miles, even though a tire has lost all air! That
means time to get off the highway and get to a place where the tire can
be inspected, replaced, or possibly repaired and returned to service.
That’s peace of mind!
