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 seek-
ing remedies under Title I of the Federal Magnuson-
Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. §2301, et. seq. If
you choose to seek remedies other than those cre-
ated by Title I 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 mecha-
nisms such as BBB AUTO LINE must be used be-
fore you may use state-operated complaint resolu-
tion 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 ac-
cordance with those states’ laws, Nissan requires
the prior use of BBB AUTO LINE in good faith be-
fore you resort to such other processes, file a
lawsuit, or seek other remedies provided by state
law. Please see theSupplement to 2011 Nissan
Warranty Information Booklet & 2011 Nissan Own-
er’s Manual for additional information. BBB AUTO LINE may not be available in all states. We,
Nissan, would be pleased to provide you with informa-
tion about the availability of BBB AUTO LINE in your
state, or call the BBB AUTO LINE number listed above.
For additional information on the Auto Line program,
please refer particularly to the information on your state
in the
Supplement to 2011 Nissan Warranty Informa-
tion Booklet, and 2011 Nissan Owner’s Manual.

ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT PASSENGER
AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES INCLUDING
RFT TIRES WITH RUN-FLAT
TECHNOLOGY ELIGIBILITY
This Limited Warranty covers BRIDGESTONE and FIR-
ESTONE brand passenger and light truck tires, includ-
ing RFT and temporary spare tires, originally installed by
the vehicle manufacturer on a new vehicle. You are
covered under the terms of this Limited Warranty if the
tire was produced after July 4, 2004 (DOT serial 2704
or later) and has been used only on the vehicle on which
it was originally installed in non-commercial service.
WHAT IS WARRANTED AND FOR HOW
LONG
Before wearing down to 2/32 inch (1.6 mm) remaining
original tread depth (i.e. worn down to the top of the
built-in indicators in the tread grooves) and within 6
years from the date of purchase (proof of purchase date
required; without proof of purchase date, then within 6
years from the date of tire manufacture) , for any reason
other than those excluded in the section entitled “What
This Limited Warranty Does Not Cover,” any eligible tire
that becomes unusable for any reason within the manu-
facturer’s control will be replaced with an equivalent
new tire on the basis set forth in this Limited Warranty.
WHAT THE WARRANTY DOES NOT
COVER
This Limited Warranty does not cover the following:1. Tire damage or irregular wear due to: A. Road hazards, including, without limitation:
Puncture, cut, impact break, stone drill, bruise,
bulge, snag, etc.

out limitation: Improper inflation pressure, over-
loading, tire/wheel spinning, use of an improper
wheel, tire chain damage, misuse, misapplica-
tion, negligence, tire alteration, or for racing or
competition purposes.
C. Insufficient or improper maintenance, in-
cluding, without limitation: Failure to rotate tires
as recommended in this manual, wheel mis-
alignment, worn suspension components, im-
proper tire mounting or demounting, tire/wheel
assembly imbalance, or other vehicle condi-
tions, defects, or characteristics.
D. Contamination or degradation by petro-
leum products or other chemicals, fire or other
externally generated heat, or water or other
material trapped inside the tire during mounting
or inflation.
E. Improper repair. Improper repair voids this
Limited Warranty.
F. For RFT tires only, improper run-flat or
low tire pressure operation, including, with-
out limitation: Exceeding speed, distance, or
other run-flat/lowpressure operation limitations. 2. Rapid tread wear or wear-out. Original equipment

20 BRIDGESTONE FIRESTONE TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
Page 29 of 61

Always maintain inflation pressure at the level
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer as
shown on the vehicle placard, vehicle certifica-
tion label or in the vehicle owner’s manual:
Underinflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may
result in severe cracking, component separation or
“blowout.” It reduces tire load capacity, allows exces-
sive sidewall flexing and increases rolling resistance,
resulting in heat and mechanical damage. Maintaining
proper inflation pressure is the single most important
thing you can do to promote tire durability and maximize
tread life.
Overinflation increases stiffness, which may deteriorate
ride and generate unwanted vibration. Overinflation also
increases the chances of impact damage.
DON’T OVERLOAD YOUR VEHICLE OR
TIRES
Check your vehicle owner’s manual to determine the
load limits. Overloading your vehicle places stress on
your tires and other critical vehicle components. Over-
loading a vehicle can cause poor handling, increased
fuel consumption and may cause tire failure. Overload-
ing your tires can result in severe cracking, component
separation orblowout.
Never fit your vehicle with new tires that have less load
capacity than shown on the vehicle tire placard and
remember that optimum rim width is important for
proper tire load distribution and function.
The maximum load capacity stamped on the sidewalls of
P-Metric tires is reduced by 10% when used on a light
truck, utility vehicle or trailer. Never fit P-Metric tires to
light trucks that specify LT-type replacement tires.
DON’T SPIN YOUR TIRES
EXCESSIVELY
Avoid excessive tire spinning when your vehicle is stuck
in snow, ice, mud or sand. The centrifugal forces gen-
erated by a free-spinning tire/wheel assembly may
cause sudden tire explosion resulting in vehicle damage
and/or serious personal injury to you or a bystander.
Never exceed 35 mph/55 km/h, as indicated on your
speedometer. Use a gentle backward and forward rock-
ing motion to free your vehicle for continued driving.
Never stand near or behind a tire spinning at high
speeds. For example, while attempting to push a vehicle
that is stuck or when an on-the-car spin balance ma-
chine is in use.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR WEAR
Always remove tires from service when they reach two
thirty-seconds of an inch (2/32) remaining tread depth.
All new tires have treadwear indicators which appear as
smooth banks in the tread grooves when they wear to
the two thirty-seconds of an inch (2/32) level. Many wet
weather accidents result from skidding on bald or nearly
bald tires. Excessively worn tires are also more suscep-
tible to penetrations.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR DAMAGE
Frequent (at least monthly) inspection of your tires for
signs of damage and their general condition is important
for safety. If you have any questions, have your tire
Dealer inspect them. Impacts, penetrations, cracks,
knots, bulges or air loss always require tire removal and
expert inspection. Never perform a temporary repair or
use an inner tube as a substitute for a proper repair.
Only qualified persons should repair tires.
PROPER TIRE REPAIR NOTE:
Goodyear and Dunlop do not warrant any inspection or
repair process. The repair is entirely the responsibility of
the repairer and should be made in accordance with
established Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA)
procedures.
THE CONVENIENCE (TEMPORARY)
SPARE
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare is designed, built,
and tested to the high engineering standards set by North
America’s leading car manufacturers and to Goodyear
and Dunlop’s own high standards of quality control. It is
designed to take up a minimum of storage space and, at
the same time, fulfill the function of a spare tire when
needed. The spare is kept in its storage space, fully
inflated at 60 psi. To be sure it is always ready for use, the
air pressure should be checked on a regular basis.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare can be used in
combination with the original tires on your vehicle. You
can expect a tire tread life of up to 3,000 miles (4,800
kilometers) , depending on road conditions and your
driving habits. To conserve tire tread life, return the
spare to the storage area as soon as it is convenient to
have the standard tire repaired or replaced.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare weighs less than a
standard tire so it’s easier to handle. It also helps reduce
the total car weight which contributes to fuel economy.
The wheels used with the Convenience (Temporary)
Spare are specifically designed for use with high pres-
sure spares and should never be used with any other
type tire.

Page 30 of 61

DON’T ATTEMPT TO MOUNT YOUR
OWN TIRES
Serious injury or Death may result from explosion of tire/
rim assembly due to improper mounting procedures.
Follow tire manufacturer’s instructions and match tire
diameter to rim diameter. Mount light truck radials on
rims approved for radial service. Do not apply bead
sealer. This can inhibit bead seating. Lubricate beads
and tire rim (including tube or flap) contact surfaces.
Lock assembly on mounting machine or place in safety
cage. STAND BACK and never exceed 40 psi to seat
beads. Never use a volatile substance or a rubber
“donut” (also known as a bead expander or “O-Ring”) to
aid bead seating. Only specially-trained persons should
mount tires.
DON’T MIX TIRES OF DIFFERENT
SIZES AND TYPES ON THE SAME
AXLE
For optimum handling and control, Goodyear and Dun-
lop recommend fitment of four (4) tires of the same type
and size unless otherwise specified by the vehicle
manufacturer.
WARNING: Before you replace your tires, always con-
sult the vehicle owner’s manual and follow the vehicle
manufacturer’s replacement tire recommendations. Ve-
hicle handling may be significantly affected by a change
in tire size or type. When selecting tires that are different
than the Original Equipment size, see a professional
installer in order to make certain that proper clearance,
load carrying capacity and inflation pressure is selected.
Never exceed the maximum load capacity and inflationpressure listed on the sidewall of the tire. Always drive
safely and obey all traffic laws. Avoid sudden, sharp
turns or lane changes. Failure to follow this warning may
result in loss of control of the vehicle, leading to an
accident and serious injury or death.
When replacing tires, you must maintain the outside
diameter and load carrying capacity of the Original
Equipment tire. Inflation pressure may need to be ad-
justed to avoid overloading the tire. Consult the Tire &
Rim Association Load and Inflation Tables, ETRTO or
JATMA standards for correct load and inflation informa-
tion.
NEVER FIT TIRES TO A VEHICLE THAT
HAVE LESS LOAD CARRYING
CAPACITY THAN AS REQUIRED BY
THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT
MANUFACTURER
Examples: Many vehicles, such as large passenger
vans, require Load Range E tires as designated by the
vehicle manufacturer. Fitment of a tire, such as a Load
Range D, with less carrying capacity is not allowed.
In other cases, tires of the same size may carry different
load indexes in the service description. You must make
certain the replacement tires fitted to the vehicle have a
load carrying capacity equal to or greater than what the
Original Equipment manufacturer specifies.
FOLLOW THESE ADDITIONAL
GUIDELINES
Fit newest tires on rear axle. If radials and non-radials
must be fitted to the same vehicle, fit radials on rear axle.Never mix radials and non-radials on the same axle.
When fitting snow tires or all-season tires to perfor-
mance vehicles, always fit in sets of four. It is not
recommended to fit tires with different speed ratings. If
tires with different speed ratings are installed on a
vehicle, they should be installed with like pairs on the
same axle. The speed capability of the vehicle will
become limited to that of the lowest speed rated tires. It
is also recommended that the lower speed rated tires
be placed on the front axle regardless of which axle is
driven to help prevent potential oversteer.
Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tire combinations can
cause instability. When changing tire sizes, always con-
sult Dealer for optimum rim width and carefully checkvehicle/tire clearances.
RETREADED TIRES
Retreaded passenger and light truck tires are not war-
ranted by Goodyear and Dunlop for any reason. Good-
year and Dunlop speed ratings and U.S. Department of
Transportation test compliance certifications are voided
for retreaded tires.
DO MAINTAIN VEHICLE SUSPENSION,
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCE
AND ROTATE YOUR TIRES
Lack of rotation, worn suspension parts, underinflation/
overinflation, wheel imbalance and misalignment can
cause vibration or irregular tire wear. Rotate your tires
according to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions or at maximum intervals of 6,000 miles/10,000 km.

GENERAL TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
AND ADJUSTMENT POLICY
This Limited Warranty and Adjustment (the “Policy”) is
issued by Continental Tire North America, Inc. (the
“Company”) and is applicable for Continental and
General-brand original equipment tires and is a promise
of replacement under certain specified conditions. This
Policy applies to tires in normal service displaying ad-
justable conditions (see Section 4) and does not re-
quire the existence of a workmanship or material related
condition in order to qualify for adjustment. THIS
POLICY IS NOT A WARRANTY THAT YOUR TIRE
WILL NOT FAIL OR BECOME UNSERVICEABLE IF
NEGLECTED OR MISTREATED.
1. ELIGIBILITY
a. This Policy applies to the owner of Passenger Car,Light Truck and Serva-Spare tires bearing the Con-
tinental or General brand name and serial numbers,
and operated in normal service.
b. Eligible tires must be the original equipment tires, used on the vehicle on which they were originally
installed by the vehicle manufacturer.
c. Tires branded “used” are not eligible under this Policy.
2. WHAT IS THE ADJUSTMENT POLICY
AND FOR HOW LONG?
Limited warranty coverage is for a maximum period of
72 months from the date of purchase*, determined by
the new vehicle registration date or new vehicle sales
invoice showing date of purchase. If an eligible Passenger or Light Truck or Serva-Spare
tire, used in normal service, becomes unserviceable
from a condition other than those listed under Section 4,
during or after the time or treadwear periods shown
below, it will be replaced with a comparable** new
Continental or General brand tire according to
(A)and
(B) below.
(A) Free Replacement Policy:
Time* Treadwear
Passenger
Tire First 12 Months or First
2/32nds,
(whichever comes
first) .
Mounting & Balancing in-
cluded free of charge.
Owner pays all applicable
taxes.
Light Truck
Tire First 12 Months or First
2/32nds,
(whichever comes
first) .

taxes. (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 com-
parable** new Continental or General brand
replacement tire. A tire is eligible for an ad-
justment 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.
*
At the time of claim, you need to present your
new vehicle registration or new vehicle sales
invoice showing date of purchase. If satisfac-
tory proof-of-purchase date is not provided,
the D.O.T. certification date of manufacture
(tire serial number) will be used.
**A “comparable” new Continental or Gen-
eral brand tire may be either the same tire
line or the same basic construction but with
a different sidewall or tread configuration. If
a higher-priced tire is accepted as
replacement, the owner will pay the differ-
ence in price. Any tire replaced under this
Policy will be covered by the current
Continental/ General Tire Limited Warranty
and Adjustment Policy
(Continued on next page)

3. HOW A PRO RATA PRICE IS
CALCULATED
The replacement tire price will be determined by multi-
plying the percentage of the usable tread worn by the
Dealers Selling Price (excluding all applicable taxes) at
the time of the adjustment or the Continental/General
brand current published Adjustment Base Price, which-
ever 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 Dealer’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.

PASSENGER TIRES AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES LIMITED WARRANTY
Toyo Tire (U.S.A.) Corporation warrants Toyo brand
passenger tires, light truck tires and “T” Type temporary
spare tires mounted on vehicles as original equipment
for adjustable conditions as follows:
Important:In accordance with Federal Law, this war-
ranty has been designated as a “Limited Warranty.”
Nothing in this limited warranty is intended to be a
representation that tire failures cannot occur:
WHAT IS COVERED BY THE LIMITED
WARRANTY
Toyo brand passenger tires, light truck tires and full size
spare tires are warranted for adjustable conditions for
the new, original usable tread until worn down to the
tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread
remaining) or for 60 months from the date of purchase
(as verified by a copy of the original new vehicle pur-
chase invoice) , whichever comes first. In the event the
original new vehicle purchase invoice is unavailable, the

See “What Is Not Covered” listed below. Presence of a
manufacturing anomaly is not necessarily required to
qualify for adjustment. (1) When 25% or less of the original usable tread
of a radial tire has been worn, the tire will be
replaced with a comparable new Toyo tire free
of charge, including mounting and balancing.
The original usable tread is the original tread
down to the level of the tread wear indicators
(2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining) . Ad-
justments for ride disturbances or vibration,
which cannot be corrected by balancing, are
only adjustable in the first 25% of usable tread
(a set of four tires will not be accepted for ride
disturbance) . Service charges or any applicable
taxes are payable by you.
(2) When more than 25% of the original usable tread of a radial tire has been worn, the user
must pay for the cost of a comparable new
Toyo replacement tire based on the amount of
tread used. This is calculated by dividing the
number of 32nds of an inch used by the origi-
nal usable tread depth and multiplying by the
actual current dealer selling price. The original
usable tread is the original tread down to the
level of the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of
an inch of tread remaining) . Service charges or
any applicable taxes are payable by you. (3) The tires must be used in normal highway ser-
vice on the vehicle they were originally installed,
used in non-commercial service and in accor-
dance with the maintenance recommendations
and safety warnings contained in the Owner’s
Manual and in the Important Tire Safety Infor-
mation section of this booklet.

comparable new Toyo tire free of charge.
Mounting and balancing, service charges or
any applicable taxes are payable by you.
(2) When more than 50% of the original usable tread has been worn, you must pay for the cost
of a comparable new Toyo replacement tire
based on the amount of tread used. Mounting
and balancing, service charges or any appli-
cable taxes are payable by you.
