TIRES

Life Of Tire
The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including,
bu
t not limited to:
• Driving style.
•
Tire pressure - Improper cold tire inflation pressures can cause
u
neven wear patterns to develop across the tire tread. These
abnormal wear patterns will reduce tread life, resulting in the need
for earlier tire replacement.
• Distance driven.
•
Performance tires, tires with a speed rating of V or higher, and
S
ummer tires typically have a reduced tread life. Rotation of these
tires per the vehicle scheduled maintenance is highly recom -
mended.
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to
l i

ght as possible. Protect tires from contact with oil, grease, and
gasoline.
Replacement Tires
The tires on your new vehicle provide a balance of many
ch
aracteristics. They should be inspected regularly for wear and
correct cold tire inflation pressures. FCA US LLC strongly
recommends that you use tires equivalent to the originals in size,
quality and performance when replacement is needed. Refer to the
paragraph on “Tread Wear Indicators” in this section. Refer to the Tire
and Loading Information placard or the Vehicle Certification Label for
the size designation of your tire. The Load Index and Speed Symbol
for your tire will be found on the original equipment tire sidewall.
See the Tire Sizing Chart example found in the “Tire Safety
In
formation” section of this manual for more information relating to
the Load Index and Speed Symbol of a tire.
WARNING!
Tires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years,
re
gardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning
can result in sudden tire failure. You could lose control and have a
collision resulting in serious injury or death.
