run flat DODGE JOURNEY 2019 Vehicle Warranty

TO PROLONG TIRE LIFE DURING A SYSTEM ALERT
The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire can be driven at low or zero air
pressure (refer to your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for these limitations). To
help prolong the life of a tire operating under low-inflation conditions,
drive at a speed as far below 50 mph (80 kph) as possible. Also, drive the
shortest distance possible before obtaining tire service. Taking these
precautions will increase the chance that your tire will be repairable.
SERVICE AFTER A SYSTEM ALERT
To obtain service after operating under low-inflation conditions, contact
your Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility. Trained service
personnel will inspect your tires to determine if they are in need of repair
or replacement. To locate the nearest authorized Goodyear or Dunlop
Run-Flat service facility, call 1-800- GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .
WARNING!
Because of the unique characteristics of Run-Flat tires, the wheels
on which they are mounted and your vehicle’s tire pressure
monitoring system, all tire service work other than routine inflation
maintenance and external inspections must be performed by service
personnel at a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility.
Do not attempt to mount or demount Run-Flat tires yourself; serious
injury or death could result. Only specially trained persons should
mount, demount and repair Run-Flat tires, and more than 40 psi
(270 kPa) may be required to seat beads. A safety cage and clip-on
extension air hose must be used if more than 40 psi (270 kPa) is need
to seat beads.
TIRE REPAIR
Like any other Goodyear or Dunlop speed-rated, high-performance tire,
the Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire may be repaired to correct a
puncture in the tread, but PROPER MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES
MUST BE USED. Contact a Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat service facility
for information on proper repairs. For the location of the nearest facility,
call 1-800-GOODYEAR 1-800-466-3932 .

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.

2. If Hankook Temporary Tire fails as a result of defect in materialsand/or workmanship during the first 50% of usable treadwear, the tire
will be replaced with a new, comparable tire at no charge including
mounting charge. No adjustment will be made for tires that are worn
more than 50%.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY
NON ADJUSTABLE CONDITIONS
1. Irregular wear or tire damage due to:
•Road hazards such as punctures, cuts, snags, scuffs, carcass bruises
or impact breaks.
• Fire, wreck or collision
• Improper inflation, overloading, high speed spinning, improper
mounting or demounting, running flat, off-road use, racing, vandal-
ism, willful damage or abuse.
• Misalignment, wheel imbalance, defective brakes or shock absorber,
use of tire chains.
• Any tire which has failed as a result of adding materials (e.g. tire
fillers, sealant, or balancing substances).
• Mechanical failure or design of vehicle.
2. Tires fitted to anything other than the original vehicles.
3. Tire worn beyond tread wear indicator (2/32 nds inch or 1.6 mm tread remaining).
4. Tire presented by other than the actual owner-user.
5. Tire branded “NA” (meaning no adjustment) or “blem” (meaning blemished).
6. Loss of time inconvenience, loss of use of the vehicle or consequential damage.
7. Ride disturbance caused by damaged wheels or after free-replacement conditions.
8. Tire with weather cracking which was purchased more than four years prior to presentation for adjustment.

and beads. Do not exceed the maximum recommended pressure to
seat beads on rim. Use remote control inflation equipment and
inflation cage.
NOTE:
• Never inflate over 40 psi to seat beads.
• Mount radial ply tires only on rims designated by wheel manufacturer
as suitable for radial tire.
• Only specially trained persons shall mount tires.
• AIR PRESSURE
Check the pressure in your tires, including your spare, at least
monthly, and always before and during extended driving. Check tires
cold (at least 3 hours after the vehicle has been stopped and before it
is driven more than 1.6 kilometers or 1 mile). Do not reduce pressure
when tires are hot, use an accurate air pressure gauge to check
pressure and maintain it at the level recommended on the vehicle tire
placard or in the Owner ’s Manual. Under inflation produces extreme
flexing of sidewalls and builds up heat to the point that premature tire
failure may occur. Over inflation can cause the tires to be more
susceptible to impact damage. Cold tire pressures, however, should
never be higher than the limit molded on the sidewall.
• LOAD LIMITS
Never exceed the load-carrying limits molded onto the sidewall of
your tires or the maximum vehicle load limit as shown on the vehicle
tire placard, whichever is less. Overloading builds up excessive heat in
the tire and leads to early and/or sudden failure.
• HAZARDS
Avoid running over objects (e.g., chuckholes, rocks, curbs, metal, glass,
etc.) which may possibly cause internal tire damage. Continued use of
a tire that has suffered internal damage (which may not be externally
visible) can lead to dangerous tire failure. Determination of suspected
internal damage requires demounting the tire from its rim and
examination by trained tire personnel.

IV. 30-DAY SATISFACTION GUARANTEED TRIAL WARRANTY
Kumho Tire’s 30-Day Satisfaction Guaranteed Trial Warranty covers a
complete set of four (4) Road Venture AT51 and Solus TA71 tires. If for
whatever reason you aren’t completely satisfied with your eligible tires,
simply return them to the dealer where they were purchased for
replacement.
Limitations and Requirements
•This trial warranty only applies to the original purchaser of a set of
four eligible (4) tires returned within 30 days from the date of purchase
and is non-transferable; any return of less than a full set of tires will not
be accepted. Original purchaser must present their original sales
receipt/invoice to their selling dealer at the time of replacement.
• Tires must be returned undamaged. Tires exhibiting road hazard,
mounting damage, vehicle mechanical-related problems, repairs, im-
proper inflation, vandalism, run flat, racing or any tires removed from
the original vehicle are excluded from this trial warranty.
• Original purchaser pays the amounts due on a new replacement tire,
less the amount of credit, including applicable taxes, mounting and
balancing charges and/or the cost of other services ordered.
• Tires measuring more than 1/32 of tread wear from original tread
depth are excluded from trial warranty.
NEW ON REAR/ROTATION RECOMMENDATION
1. Replacement of two tires: Kumho Tire recommends replacing all four tires at the same time. However, when only two tires are replaced, the
new tires should be put on the rear. The newer tires, with deeper tread,
may provide better grip and water evacuation in wet driving condi-
tions.
2. Tire Rotations: Owners must continue to rotate tires in accordance to their vehicle owner ’s manual or every 5,000 miles. Side-to-side rota-
tion on new on rear; two-tire replacements fitments will be accept-
able.

Even a MICHELIN® PAX® System Tire or Self-Supporting Zero Pressure
(ZP) tire can build up excessive heat when run underinflated for an
extended period of time. The length of time and distance a PAX System
Tire/Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tire will perform at low or zero
air pressure will depend upon the severity of the event causing air loss,
ambient temperature, speed at which the tire is operated, and the
conditions under which the tire is operated (i.e. hard braking, cornering
and other sharp maneuvers will greatly reduce the length of time the tire
can perform at low or zero air pressure.) Continuous use of an underin-
flated tire may lead to sudden tire destruction. If a tire at low or zero
pressure begins to vibrate or cause difficulty in vehicle handling, remove
the tire immediately and replace with the temporary spare. If Michelin®
PAX System Tire/Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires are supplied as
original equipment, refer to the vehicle owner ’s manual for complete
details on the low tire pressure warning system designed to alert you in
the event of a low pressure condition.
NOTE:MICHELIN® SELF-SUPPORTING ZERO PRESSURE (ZP)
TIRES ARE TO BE USED ONLY IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN OPERA-
TIONAL, MICHELIN® APPROVED, LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING
SYSTEM. Otherwise, all provisions of the limited warranty are void. For
a list of approved systems, see your participating Michelin® tire retailer,
or call toll free:1-800-847-3435
NOTE: Some MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires can
only be mounted on special SH-M (Symmetric Hump - Modified) wheels.
These tires bear the special SH-M designation, molded into the sidewall
of the tire, next to the ZP designation. DO NOT MOUNT A TIRE WITH
THE SH-M DESIGNATION ON THE SIDEWALL ON A STANDARD
WHEEL. DOING SO VOIDS THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND COULD
CAUSE THE TIRE TO BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT LOW OR ZERO
PRESSURE, RESULTING IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
NOTE: MICHELIN® PAX® SYSTEM TIRES ARE TO BE USED ONLY
IN CONJUNCTION WITH AN OPERATIONAL, TIRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS), APPROVED BY THE VEHICLE
MANUFACTURER FOR USE WITH THE PAX SYSTEM. Otherwise, all
provisions of the limited warranty are void. For a list of approved
systems, see your authorized PAX System retailer, or call toll free:

For all types of tires, consult your vehicle tire placard or owner ’s manual
for recommended operating pressures. If the tires are purchased as
replacement tires, operating instructions for the low pressure warning
system will be provided by the manufacturer of that system. Recom-
mended operating pressures will be provided by a participating Michelin
tire retailer for self supporting ZP tires. Recommended operating pres-
sure for PAX System Tires will be provided by a PAX System retailer.
These inflation pressures must be maintained as a minimum. However,
do not exceed the maximum pressure rating indicated on the tire
sidewall.
CHECK THE COLD INFLATION PRESSURES IN ALL YOUR TIRES,
INCLUDING THE SPARE, AT LEAST ONCE EACH MONTH
Failure to maintain correct inflation may result in improper vehicle
handling and may cause rapid and irregular tire wear, sudden tire
destruction, loss of vehicle control and serious personal injury. Therefore,
inflation pressures should be checked at least once each month and
always prior to long distance trips. This applies to all tires, including
sealant types, and Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires which are as
susceptible to losing air pressure as any other type of tire if not properly
maintained.
UNDERINFLATION
It is impossible to determine whether tires are properly inflated by
simply looking at them. It is almost impossible to “feel or hear” when a
tire is being run underinflated or nearly flat. Tires must be checked
monthly with a tire pressure gauge.
Pressures should be checked when tires are cold, in other words, before
they have been driven on. Driving, even for a short distance, causes tires
to heat up and air pressure to increase.
Checking pressure when tires are hot:
If pressures are checked after tires have been driven for more than three
minutes or more than one mile, (2 km) the tires become hot and the
pressures will increase by approximately 4 psi. Therefore when the tire
pressure is adjusted under these conditions, it should be increased to a
gauge reading of 4 psi greater than the recommended cold inflation
pressure.
MICHELIN
169

5 PSI from the previous pressure check, have the tire inspected at once
by an authorized PAX System Retailer for PAX tires or a participating
Michelin tire retailer (or representative of your vehicle manufacturer if
your vehicle owner ’s manual so advises.) Failure to do so may cause
irreparable damage to the tire and result in sudden tire destruction and
personal injury.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEMS (TPMS):
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) that is designed to monitor the pressure of tires mounted on your
vehicle and sends a signal to the driver if a tire pressure falls below a
predetermined level. A TPMS should not replace monthly manual
pressure checks for all four (4) tires and the spare. We recommend that
you manually monitor and check tire pressure inflation with a pressure
gauge. Your tires should have the recommended pressure listed by your
vehicle’s manufacturer. This information can be found in the vehicle
owner ’s manual and often on a placard located in the vehicle’s door
jamb, inside the fuel hatch, or on the glove compartment door. If you
have a plus size fitment that requires a higher inflation pressure, your tire
pressure monitoring system will require re-calibration to new inflation
pressure. Refer to your tire dealer/installer of plus size tires for proper
inflation pressure.
We recommend checking air pressure once each month, and before a long
trip. Whether you have a full-sized or mini-spare, make sure that it is
properly inflated as well. If the TPMS generates improper monitoring or
signals we recommend that you consult your owner ’s manual provided
with your vehicle and follow-up with your vehicle’s manufacturer.
TIRE SPINNING
Do not spin wheels in excess of 35 mph (55 km/h) as indicated on the
speedometer. Excessive speed in a free-running, unloaded tire can cause
it to “explode” from centrifugal force. The energy released by such an
explosion is sufficient to cause serious physical injury or death. Never
allow anyone to stand near or behind the spinning tire.
When in mud, sand, snow, ice or other slippery conditions, do not engage
in excessive wheel spin. Accelerating the motor excessively, particularly
with automatic transmission vehicles, may cause a drive tire that has lost
traction to spin beyond its speed capability. This is also true when
balancing a drive tire/wheel assembly on the vehicle using the vehicle
engine to spin the tire/wheel assembly.
