4INFINITI OWNER SATISFACTION AND ASSISTANCE
BBB AUTO LINE is an informal dispute
settlement mechanism operated to
comply with applicable Federal law and
regulations. In states where BBB AUTO
LINE is available, you are required to use
BBB AUTO LINE before exercising rights
or seeking remedies under Title 1 of the
Federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act,
15 U.S.C.§2301, et. seq. If you choose to
seek remedies other than those created by
Title 1 of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty
Act, (for example, under state law), that
Federal Act does not require you to first
use BBB AUTO LINE. The program is still
available to you, however, and may be
of considerable assistance. Some states
specify that informal dispute settlement
mechanisms such as BBB AUTO LINE must
be used before you may use state operated
complaint resolution processes, before you
may file a lawsuit under state law, and/or
before you may have certain other rights
or remedies available under state law. In
accordance with those states’ laws, Infiniti
requires the prior use of BBB AUTO LINE
in good faith before you resort to such
other processes, file a lawsuit, or seek other
remedies provided by state law. Please see
theSupplement to 2018 Infiniti Warranty
Information Booklet & 2018 Infiniti Owner’s
Manual for additional information. BBB AUTO LINE may not be available in
all states. We, Infiniti, can provide you with
information about the availability of BBB
AUTO LINE in your state, or call the BBB
AUTO LINE number listed above.
ELIGIBILITY: Generally, Infiniti vehicles less
than four years old from date delivered to the
first retail buyer or otherwise put into use, and
with fewer than 60,000 miles, are eligible
for the program. See Supplement to 2018
Infiniti Warranty Information Booklet & 2018
Infiniti Owner’s Manual for possible exceptions
applying in your state.
ASSISTANCE OUTSIDE OF
WARRANTY
In support of our commitment to the
“Total Ownership Experience,” Infiniti may
occasionally offer to pay or reimburse for part
or all of the cost of making certain, specific
repairs beyond or outside of the terms of the
warranty for some specific vehicle models.
(Some states refer to such programs as
“adjustment programs”). In such circumstances
Infiniti mails notices to all known registered
owners of affected vehicles. You may
additionally inquire of your authorized Infiniti
retailer or of Infiniti directly at the number
listed below of the applicability of such
programs to your vehicle.
Infiniti may occasionally offer special
assistance that may pay for part or all of
vehicle repairs beyond the expiration of
the limited warranty period on a case by
case basis. Should you experience unusual
difficulties with your vehicle please discuss the
situation with your retailer. If your retailer is
unable to assist you, you may call the Infiniti
Consumer Affairs Department at 1-800- 662-
6200 to discuss your concern. You will need to
provide the Model, Model Year, VIN (Vehicle
Identification Number), mileage, maintenance
history, a detailed explanation of the concern,
and why you believe that Infiniti should be
responsible for the repair. Your request will
be individually investigated and you will be
informed of Infiniti‘s decision.
Please also review the Supplement to 2018
Infiniti Warranty Information Booklet & 2018
Owner’s Manual for important information
concerning consumer rights in your state.

SAFETY WARNINGS
Property damage, serious injury or death may
result from:
•TIRE FAILURE DUE TO
UNDERINFLATION/ OVERLOADING/
MISAPPLICATION.
Follow the vehicle Owner’s Manual or tire
placard in vehicle.
• TIRE FAILURE DUE TO IMPACT DAMAGE/
IMPROPER MAINTENANCE.
Tires should be inspected regularly by a
qualified technician for signs of damage,
such as punctures or impacts.
• TIRE FAILURE DUE TO IMPROPER
REPAIRS.
See Rubber Manufacturer’s Association
(RMA) established repair procedures at www.
rma.org and/or go to www.goodyear.com for
information on proper repair procedures.
• EXPLOSION OF TIRE/RIM ASSEMBLY
DUE TO IMPROPER MOUNTING.
Only specially-trained persons should mount
tires. When mounting tires, use safety cage
and clip-on extension air hose to inflate.
• FAILURE TO MOUNT RADIAL TIRES ON
APPROVED RIMS.
• FAILURE TO DEFLATE SINGLE OR DUAL
ASSEMBLIES COMPLETELY BEFORE
DEMOUNTING.
• TIRE SPINNING.
On slippery surfaces such as snow, mud, ice,
etc., do not spin tires in excess of 35 mph (55
kph), as indicated on the speedometer. •
EXCESSIVE WHEEL SPINNING.
This can also result in tire disintegration or
axle failure.
WARNING: Vehicle handling, traction, ride
comfort and other performance parameters
may be significantly affected by a change in
tire size or type. Before replacing tires, always
consult and follow the vehicle Owner’s Manual
because some vehicle manufacturers prohibit
changing tire size. When selecting tires that
are different from the original equipment size
make certain: (1) The tires have adequate
load carrying capacity based on the vehicle
placard, (2) The tires have sufficient inflation
pressure to carry the load and (3) There is
proper clearance with no interference points
between the tire and vehicle. The consumer
must be aware to always drive safely and obey
all traffic laws. Avoid sudden, sharp turns or
lane changes. Failure to follow any of these
warnings may result in loss of control of the
vehicle, leading to an accident and serious
injury or death.
TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE
GUIDE
The easiest way to help ensure satisfactory
mileage and performance from your Goodyear
or Dunlop tires is to give them a simple but
frequent (at least monthly) inspection for
proper inflation, even treadwear, and the
presence of any damage.
GOODYEAR/DUNLOP TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
(Continued on next page)

40CONTINENTAL/GENERAL TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
(B) Pro Rata Replacement Policy:
Passenger/Light Truck Tires
After the "Free Replacement Policy"
expires (set forth in section 2A), and
the tire is still within 72 months from
the date of purchase*, you will pay, on
a pro rata basis, for a comparable**
new Continental or General brand
replacement tire. A tire is eligible for an
adjustment on a pro rata basis until the
tread is worn down to the tread wear
indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread
remaining). The tire tread is worn out at
this point and this Policy ends regardless
of time period. Owner pays all applicable
taxes (including F.E.T.), mounting and
balancing charges.
Serva-Spare Tires
After the “Free Replacement Policy”
expires (set forth in section 2A), no
adjustment will be made.
3. HOW A PRO RATA PRICE IS
CALCULATED
The replacement tire price will be determined
by multiplying the percentage of the usable
tread worn by the Retailers Selling Price
(excluding all applicable taxes) at the time of
the adjustment or the Continental/General
brand current published Adjustment Base Price, whichever is lower. The usable tread
is the original tread down to the tread wear
indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread
remaining). The Adjustment Base Price is
intended to fairly represent a Retailer ’s Selling
Price for the same or comparable tire.
4. WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE
ADJUSTMENT POLICY
a.
The following conditions are not covered:
Road Hazard: Cuts, snags, punctures, bruises
or impact breaks and any damage caused
by puncture or tire repair. Ride/Vibration:
After “Free Replacement Policy” (set forth in
section 2A) expires.
Tire Damage or Failure Resulting From
Improper Operation or Maintenance: Load,
speed, and inflation practices causing
excessive operational temperatures to
exceed the tire capabilities.
Tire damage (including irregular treadwear)
or failure resulting from: improper mounting
or demounting, damaged rim, wheel
alignment, tire trueing, chain damage, brakes
or any similar mechanical problem, extreme
temperature exposure, misuse, negligence,
and abusive driving such as tire spinning,
racing or accident damage. Tire failure
resulting from intentional alterations: such
as adding a white inlay on a blackwall or
sealant materials. Age Conditions: Weather checking/cracking
coverage is for a maximum period of 48
months from the date of purchase.

they were originally installed are not covered
under this Policy.
Company does not offer tread wearout
coverage up to a predetermined mileage
under this Policy. Tire(s) used in racing
related activities or competitive events are
not covered by this Policy.
