mileage NISSAN 370Z ROADSTER 2012 Z34 Warranty Booklet

WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY
(1)Mileage is not warranted.
(2) Damage due to road hazards, whether repair- able or not (such as cut, snag, bruise, impact
break, bulge, puncture, improper use of tire
chains, stone drill, chip, scale) . These types of
damages or air loss always require tire re-
moval and inspection by a qualified tire
professional.
(3) Irregular tread wear or rapid tread wear due to failure to rotate the tires at recommended in-
tervals or from vehicle misalignment.
(4) Damage resulting from improper repair materi- als or procedures such as rope type plugs.
Toyo does not warrant any inspection or repair
process. The repair is entirely the responsibil-
ity of the repairer and should be made in ac-
cordance with procedures as specified by the
Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) .
(5) Damage from incorrect mounting or dismount- ing of the tire, incorrect wheel size, water or
other material trapped inside the tire during
mounting or failure to balance the tires. (6) Damage or uneven tread wear from incorrect
inflation, overloading, fire, theft, defective me-
chanical conditions such as brakes, shocks,
rims, wreck or collision, misuse,
misapplication, negligence, willful damage or
abuse, vandalism, tire alteration, tire spinning,
racing or competition purposes.
(7) Damage, corrosion or rubber deterioration due to the use of oil-based chemicals, water-
based sealers, balancing substances, or flam-
mable gases.
(8) Uniformity problems such as ride, balance and vibration complaints after the first 25% of
tread wear.
(9) Replacement of four (4) or more tires from the same vehicle will not be accepted for ride dis-
turbance complaints i.e. vibration, out of
round, out of balance, pulling, noise, due to
the unlikely event of multiple tires with unifor-
mity problems.
(10) Claims for weather/ozone cracking after 5 years from the date of manufacture.
(11) Any tire which has been run with low air pres- sure or while flat.
(12) Tires used in commercial service.
(13) Tires on vehicles regularly operated outside the United States. (14) Claims made by anyone other than the original
retail purchaser of the vehicle.
(15) Tires with the D.O.T. identification number re- moved or rendered illegible.
(16) Any tire not presented and available for Toyo’s inspection.
(17) Any tire for which mileage and tire rotation records are not available or verifiable.
(18) Any tires worn beyond the wear bars (less than 2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining) .
(19) Tires not supplied as original equipment on new vehicles (refer to Owner’s Manual for
coverage) .
(20) “T” Type temporary spare tires used at speeds over 50 miles per hour, exhibiting such
damage.
(21) Dealer service charges are not covered for routine or required maintenance of the tires
such as alignments, rotation or balancing.
(22) The cost of applicable federal, state and local taxes and fees.
(23) Retreaded passenger and light truck tires are not warranted.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING
Wheel alignment and balancing are important for safety
and maximum mileage from your tires. Check how your
tires are wearing at least once a month. If your tires are
wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire
wearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect
excessive vibration, your vehicle may be out of align-
ment or balance. These conditions not only shorten the
life of your tires, but adversely affect the handling char-
acteristics of your vehicle which could be dangerous. If
you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your align-
ment and balance checked immediately. Tires which
have been run underinflated will show more wear on the
shoulders than in the center of the tread.
HARD BRAKING
You must inspect your tires after any hard braking cir-
cumstances or after tires have slid on the pavement.
This can cause a flat spot in a section of the tire tread.
TIRE SPINNING
Never spin your tires above a speedometer reading of
35 mph (55 km/h) if your vehicle becomes stuck. The
centrifugal force generated by the free spinning
tire/wheel assembly may cause a sudden tire explosion,
resulting in vehicle damage and/or serious personal
injury or death. Never allow anyone to stand near or
behind a tire spinning at high speed while attempting to
push a vehicle that is stuck. When in mud, sand, snow,
ice or other slippery conditions, do not indulge in exces-
sive wheel spin. In such conditions, with automatic
transmission vehicles, by accelerating the engine ex-
cessively, it is possible to spin one of the drive tiresbeyond its speed capability. This is also true when
balancing a drive tire/wheel assembly using the engine
of the vehicle to spin the wheel.
TIRE TREAD
Tires must be replaced when the depth of the tread
reaches 2/32 inch (1.6 mm) . Tires are manufactured
with tread wear indicators molded into the tire grooves
which indicate tread wearout. As tires approximate 2/32
inch (1.6 mm) wearout, the tread gauge becomes thin-
ner and more vulnerable to the effects of road hazards.
Also, worn tires are more subject to hydroplaning, which
can cause loss of control. Therefore, visual tire inspec-
tion becomes more crucial as the tires wear out.
WORN TIRES
Never drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced by
trained personnel when 2/32nds of an inch tread depth
remains, as indicated by the tread wear indicators
molded into the tread grooves. In most states, it is illegal
to drive with less than 2/32nds of an inch of tread
remaining.
TIRE MIXING
For best performance select tires similar in size and load
rating to the original equipment tires. It is recommended
that the same size and type of tire be used on all four
wheel positions. In certain tires, casing ply material and
ply construction may vary as indicated on the sidewall of
the tire. When changing or replacing tires, it is preferred
that all four tires are the same construction type (i.e.,
High Performance, All Season, Mud & Snow) and con-
struction (Radial or Bias Ply) . Before mixing tires ofdifferent types on a vehicle in any configuration, be sure
to check the vehicle OWNER’S MANUAL for its recom-
mendations.
Tires which meet the Rubber Manufacturer’s Associa-
tion (RMA) definition of mud and snow tires are marked
M/S, M+S, M&S. On such tires, this designation is
molded into the sidewall. Tires without this notation are
not recommended for mud and/or snow driving.
If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tires
equivalent in size and load rating to the original equip-
ment tires. Always fit performance snow tires in sets of
four (4) for optimum mud & snow traction and mainte-
nance of vehicle handling characteristics. If you do not,
it may adversely affect the safety and handling of your
vehicle. It is also important to check the vehicle OWN-
ER’S MANUAL before mixing or matching tires on
4-wheel drive vehicles as this may require special pre-
cautions.
Please refer to your OWNER’S MANUAL for more
information on tire replacement precautions.
TIRE ROTATION
Tires on your Nissan vehicle should be rotated every
7,500 miles or as irregular wear develops. If irregular
wear becomes apparent or if the wear rate on the tires is
perceptibly uneven, the tires should be rotated in such a
way to alleviate the problem. Check your vehicle for any
mechanical problems and correct if necessary. Any
rotation pattern or procedure may be followed including
those indicated in the OWNER’S MANUAL. Some tires
have arrows on the sidewall showing the direction in

IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION1

TIRE STORAGE
All tires should be stored in a cool dry place indoors so
that there is no danger of water collecting inside them.
When tires are stored they should be stored in a cool
place away from sources of heat and ozone such as hot
pipes and electric generators. Be sure that surfaces on
which tires are stored are clean and free from grease,
gasoline or other substances which could deteriorate
the rubber. (Tires exposed to these materials during
storage or driving could be subject to sudden failure.)
To Avoid Damage to your Tires and Possible
Accident:
●Check tire pressure at least once a month when
tires are cold and before long trips.
● Do not underinflate/overinflate.
● Do not overload.
● Drive at moderate speeds, observe legal limits.
● Avoid driving over potholes, obstacles, curbs or
edges of pavement.
● Avoid excessive wheel spinning.
● If you see any damage to a tire, replace with
spare and see the tire manufacturer’s dealer or
your Nissan dealership.

passenger tire care, safety and mileage performance is
