10 2014 NEW ELECTRIC VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY

Treadwear – Mileage Warranty Coverage for MI-
CHELIN® Passenger and Light Truck Tires
MICHELIN® passenger and light truck tires are cov-
ered by a manufacturer’s limited warranty for treadwear.
For the mileage warranty associated with a specific tire
line, please see your Michelin tire retailer or visit us at
www.michelinman.com/promise. Some vehicles come
from the vehicle manufacturer with “split fitments” –
meaning different size tires on the front and rear axles.
Because these tires cannot be rotated as recom-
mended by Michelin, the mileage warranty on each rear
tire will cover half the number of miles as the standard
mileage warranty for that particular tire design. Michelin
Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires have the same
mileage warranty as the standard tire line of which they
are a part, up to but not exceeding 30,000 miles.
DOT-approved competition tires (e.g., MICHELIN® Pi-
lot® Sport Cup tires) are excluded from any mileage
warranty. MICHELIN® Winter tires must be used during
winter months only, defined as a period beginning on or
after September 1st of a given year and ending no later
than April 30th of the following year. MICHELIN winter
tires require documentation of the timing of the installa-
tion and removal of the tires each winter to maintain
coverage under the limited warranty for treadwear.
An important reminder:
No tire manufacturer can guarantee you a certain num-
ber of miles from a given tire. Driving habits, driving
conditions, road conditions, and vehicle maintenance all
play a part in the tread life of a tire. If a tire does not reach
the warranted mileage, and the owner of the tires has
complied with the terms and conditions of the warranty,
Michelin will replace the tires as described under “How
Replacement Charges are calculated”.Temporary Spares
MICHELIN® temporary spare tires are covered by this
warranty for 6 years from the date of purchase or until
the first 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of the original tread
is worn off. Date of purchase is documented by new
vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no proof of
purchase is available, coverage will be based on date of
manufacture. At that time, all warranties, express or
implied, expire.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires which become unserviceable due to:Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact
damage, or puncture);
Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance,
or improper repair;
Misapplication, improper maintenance, racing, un-
derinflation, overinflation or other abuse;
Uneven or rapid wear which is caused by mechani-
cal irregularity in the vehicle such as wheel misalign-
ment (a measured tread difference of 2/32nds of an
inch (1.6 mm) or more across the tread on the same
tire);
Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or
vandalism;
Use in commercial applications for treadwear; by
this warranty for 6 years;
Flat spotting caused by improper storage or brake-
lock;
The addition of liquid, solid or gaseous materials
other than air, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide (e.g. wa-
terbase sealers or balancing substances) .
Cosmetic ozone or weather cracking;
Use of MICHELIN Self-Supporting Zero Pressure
(AP) tires without a properly operating low air pres-
sure warning system.
HOW REPLACEMENT CHARGES ARE
CALCULATED
Passenger and Light Truck Tires
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition
covered by this workmanship and materials limited war-
ranty will be replaced with a comparable new MI-
CHELIN® tire, free of charge, when 2/32nds of an inch
(1.6 mm) or less of the original tread is worn, (or 25% or
less, whichever is more beneficial to the user) and within
12 months of the date of purchase. Mounting and
balancing of the tire is included.
You pay the cost of any other service charges and
applicable taxes.
When more than 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of original
tread has been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is
more beneficial to the user) or after 12 months from the
date of purchase, you must pay the cost of a compa-
rable new MICHELIN® passenger or light truck re-
placement tire on a pro rata basis. The retailer will
determine the charge by multiplying the percentage of
the original usable tread worn, by the current selling
price at the adjustment location or the price in the
current MICHELIN® Base Price List, whichever is
lower. This list is based on a predetermined price in-
tended to fairly represent the actual selling price of the
tire.

16 MICHELIN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

At this stage, your tires must be replaced. Tires
worn beyond this stage are dangerous.

manufacturers/warrantors.
HAZARDS
Objects in the road that threaten a tire should be safely
avoided. These objects are potholes, glass, metal,
rocks, wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contact
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
You may not always recall hitting an object that can
damage or injure your tires. If while driving your vehicle
experiences any unusual vibrations, ride disturbance or
noise and/or you suspect that possible damage to the
tires or vehicle has occurred,DO NOT JAM OR LOCK
YOUR BRAKES! Rather reduce your speed and drive
with caution until you can safely pull off the road. Stop
and inspect the tires. If the tire is underinflated or
damaged, deflate, remove the tire and rim assembly and
replace it with your spare. If you cannot detect a cause,
have the vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tire
dealer to have the vehicle inspected.
REPAIRING, MOUNTING AND
DEMOUNTING OF TIRES
Do not attempt to repair, mount or demount a tire
yourself. Tire changing can be dangerous and must be
done by professionally trained persons using proper
tools and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manu-
facturers Association (RMA) . Follow these mounting
recommendations. Your tires should be mounted on
wheels of correct size and type and which are in good, clean condition. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may
cause tire damage. The inside of the tire must be free
from foreign materials.
Have your dealer check the
wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched
tires and rims can explode during mounting. Also, mis-
matched tires and rims can result in dangerous tire
failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the
wrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim -
scrap it. It may be damaged internally (which is not
externally visible) by being dangerously stretched and
could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are
mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed.
Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels de-
signed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels which have safety
humps or ledges.
Never perform a temporary repair, use an innertube or
inject sealant as a permanent substitute for a proper
repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps.
This will keep valve cores clean and clear and guard
against leakage.
REPAIRS - WHENEVER POSSIBLE, SEE A TIRE
DEALER AT ONCE. Some tire manufacturers do not
warrant any inspection or repair process. The repair is
entirely the responsibility of the repairer. Punctures in
the tread of a passenger tire which do not exceed 1/4 of
an inch (6 mm) in diameter can usually be repaired by
following the Rubber Manufacturer’s Association
(RMA) Passenger and Light Truck Repair procedures.
Contact the manufacturer of your tires for its position
and assistance as to the acceptable location for a proper repair and the repair of speed rated tires.
Do not
use plug repairs. They may cause further damage
to the tire. They are not always air tight and the
plug may fail. Do not exceed posted speed limits on
any repaired tire. Certain tire manufacturers speed rat-
ings are voided if the tire is repaired.
Although a tire was properly repaired, internal structural
damage resulting from the puncture may have occurred.
Sometime later the damage may cause the tire to be
removed from service.
If the tire has a puncture in the tread which exceeds
1/4 inch (6 mm) , the tire must be replaced. If any tire has
sustained a puncture, have the tire inspected internally
by a tire dealer for possible damage that may have
occurred.
Improper mounting and inflation procedures can cause
an explosion of the tire/rim assembly. Only specially
trained persons should perform these tasks. Contact
your tire store or dealer for assistance.
CAUTION -Never, under any circumstance, intro-
duce a flammable substance into a tire.
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-
