WARRANTY COVERAGE AT A GLANCE

3NISSAN’S COMMITMENT TO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
ASSISTANCE OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY
In our continuing effort to convey our commitment to
service and customer satisfaction, Nissan may occa-
sionally offer to pay or reimburse for part or all of the
cost of making certain, specific repairs beyond or out-
side of the terms of the warranty for some specific
vehicle models. (Some states refer to such programs
as “adjustment programs”). In such circumstances
Nissan mails notices to all known registered owners of
affected vehicles. You may additionally inquire of your
authorized Nissan Dealer or of Nissan directly at the
number listed below of the applicability of such pro-
grams to your vehicle.
Please also review the
"Supplement to the
2006 Nissan Warranty
Information Booklet &
2006 Nissan Owner's
Manual" for important
information concerning
consumer rights in your
state.
Nissan 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 dealer.
If your dealer is unable to assist you, you may call the
Nissan Consumer Affairs Department at 1-800-NISSAN-
1 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 Nissan should be
responsible for the repair. Your request will be individu-
ally investigated and you will be informed of Nissan’s
decision.

BRIDGESTONE/FIRESTONE TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

20DUNLOP PASSENGER TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
WHAT ARE YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS?
Some states and provinces do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the
above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. No
representative or dealer has authority to make any repre-
sentation, promise, or agreement on behalf of Goodyear
Dunlop Tires North America, Ltd. (GDTNA), except as
stated herein.
Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail in service
or otherwise become unserviceable due to conditions
beyond the control of the manufacturer. Under no circum-
stances is this warranty a representation that a tire failure
cannot occur.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may
also have other rights that vary from state to state and in
Canada province to province.
HOW DO YOU OBTAIN AN
ADJUSTMENT?
A. You must present the tire to be adjusted to an autho- rized Dunlop service facility. Tires replaced on an
adjustment basis become the property of Goodyear
Dunlop Tires North America, Ltd. or Goodyear Canada
Inc.
B. You must pay for taxes and any additional services you order at the time of adjustment.
C. You must submit your claim on a GDTNA claim form supplied by an authorized Dunlop service facility. The
form must be filled out completely and signed by you,
the owner of the tire presented for adjustment, or your
authorized agent.
TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
The easiest way to help ensure satisfactory mileage and
performance from your Dunlop tires is to give them a simple
but frequent inspection for proper inflation, even treadwear,
and the presence of any damage.
DO MAINTAIN PROPER INFLATION
PRESSURE IN YOUR TIRES
Proper inflation pressure is necessary for optimum tire per-
formance, safety and fuel economy. To maintain proper
inflation pressure, frequently check tires (when they are
cool) with an accurate tire pressure gauge.*
For example, it is difficult to tell just by looking at radial tires
whether they are underinflated.
Furthermore, when operating a vehicle equipped with
radial tires, it is difficult to notice when a tire has gone flat
or nearly flat since the “feel” of the vehicle does not change
significantly.
*Evidence of air loss or repeated underinflation
always requires expert inspection to determine the
source of leakage and tire removal to determine
repairability. To avoid injury, NEVER attempt to reinflate
a tire that has been run severely underinflated.
Progressive air loss may result from punctures, cuts, curb-
ing, impacts or partial bead unseating. Some fitment causes
for air loss are (1) incomplete bead seating, (2) bead
tearing caused by a machine tool due to insufficient lubri-
cation or improper adjustment, (3) leaking valve core or
rubber valve components. These should be replaced when
problems are detected and whenever tires are replaced.
Always maintain inflation pressure at the level rec-
ommended by the vehicle manufacturer as shown
on the vehicle placard or in the owner’s manual: Underinflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may
result in severe cracking, component separation or “blow-
out.” It reduces tire load capacity, allows excessive sidewall
flexing and increases rolling resistance, resulting in heat
and mechanical damage. Maintaining proper inflation pres-
sure is the single most important thing you can do to ensure
tire durability and maximum treadlife.
Overinflation increases stiffness, which may deteriorate
ride and generate unwanted vibration. Overinflation also
increases the chances of impact damage.
DON’T OVERLOAD YOUR VEHICLECheck your vehicle owner’s manual to determine the load
limits. Overloading your vehicle places stress on your tires
and other critical vehicle components. Overloading a ve-
hicle can cause poor handling, increased fuel consumption
and may cause tire failure.
Never fit your vehicle with new tires that have less load
capacity than shown on the vehicle tire placard and re-
member 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 percent 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 generated
by a free-spinning tire/wheel assembly may cause sudden

ELIGIBILITYYou are eligible for the benefits of this policy if you are the
owner or authorized agent of the owner of new Goodyear
highway auto and light truck tires bearing Department of
Transportation prescribed tire identification numbers, and
if your tires have been used only on the vehicle on which
they were originally installed according to the vehicle
manufacturer’s recommendations.
COVERAGE (REPLACEMENT FREE)Any new Goodyear highway radial auto tire or radial light
truck tire, except Unisteel radial light truck tires, covered by
this policy, that does not deliver satisfactory highway
service due to a workmanship or material related condition
(see Adjustment Policy Limitations) during the first 25% of
usable treadwear, or twelve months from date of purchase,
whichever comes first, will be replaced with a comparable
new Goodyear tire without charge. Mounting and balanc-
ing are included.
Any Goodyear temporary spare tire that does not deliver
satisfactory highway service due to a workmanship or
material related condition during the first 50% of usable
tread depth (1/32 of an inch) will be replaced with a
comparable new Goodyear temporary spare tire without
charge. Mounting is included. After the first 50% of usable
treadwear, you pay only an adjustment charge for the
treadwear received, plus any mounting charge.
COVERAGE (PRORATED ADJUSTMENT)Tires not eligible for no charge adjustment that do not
deliver satisfactory service due to a workmanship or mate-
rial related condition will be replaced with comparable new
Goodyear tires on a pro rata basis. The replacement price
will be calculated by multiplying the current Goodyear
“predetermined price for adjustment” or current advertised
price at adjustment location (whichever is lower) by the
percentage of usable original tread that has been worn off
at the time of the adjustment. You pay for mounting,
balancing, and an amount equal to the full current Federal
Excise Tax applicable to the comparable new replacement
tire.
The “predetermined price for adjustment,” available at all
Goodyear Auto Service Centers and participating dealers,
fairly represents the actual regular retail selling price of the
comparable tire at the time of adjustment. If a “predeter-
mined price for adjustment” is not available, adjustment will
be based on the price at which you are entitled to buy at the
time of adjustment.
A tire has delivered its full original tread life and this
warranty ends when the treadwear indicators become
visible, regardless of age or mileage. DEFINITION OF COMPARABLE TIRE
A “comparable” new Goodyear tire may either be the same
line of tire or, in the event the disabled tire is out of
production, the same basic construction and quality with
different sidewall or tread configuration.
If a higher priced tire is accepted as replacement, the
difference in price will be additional.
Any tire replacement under this warranty will be covered by
the Goodyear warranty in effect at time of replacement.
ADJUSTMENT POLICY LIMITATIONS
This limited warranty is applicable only in the United States
and Canada.
No representative or dealer has authority to make any
representation, promise, or agreement on behalf of
Goodyear, except as stated herein.
The following are not covered by this policy:
• Goodyear does not warrant and will not give credit in
any adjustment transaction for any kind of material
added to the tire after leaving a Goodyear factory, nor
will it adjust any tire which has failed as a result of
adding any such material. (Example: Tire fillers,
sealants, or balancing substances.)

PASSENGER TIRES AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES LIMITED WARRANTY
Toyo Tire (U.S.A.) Corporation warrants Toyo brand pas-
senger tires and light truck tires mounted on vehicles as
original equipment for adjustable conditions as follows:
1. What is covered by the warranty:
Toyo brand passenger and light truck tires are war-
ranted for adjustable conditions other than those listed
under “What Is Not Covered” for the new original
usable tread down to the treadwear indicators (2/32nd"
tread remaining) or for 60 months from the date of
manufacture, whichever comes first. The DOT serial
number on the sidewall of the tire will be used to
determine date of manufacture. This time limit does not
apply to Toyo temporary spare tires. Presence of a
manufacturing anomaly is not necessarily required to
qualify for adjustment. (A) When less than 25% of the original usable tread of
a radial tire, or less than 50% of the original usable
tread of a temporary spare tire has been worn, the
tire will be replaced with a new Toyo tire free of
charge, including mounting and balancing. (Adjust-
ments for ride disturbances or vibration, which can-
not be corrected by balancing are only adjustable in
the first 25% of usable tread.) Service charges or
any applicable taxes are payable by you.
(B) When more than 25% of the original usable tread
of a radial tire, or more than 50% of the original
usable tread of a temporary spare tire has been
worn the user must pay for the cost of a replace-
ment tire based on the amount of tread used. This is calculated by dividing the number of 32nds of an
inch used by the original usable tread depth and
multiplying by the actual current dealer selling
price. Service charges or any applicable taxes are
payable by you.
2. What is not covered by the warranty: (A) Mileage is not warranted.
(B) Damage due to road hazards whether repairable or not (such as cuts, snags, bruises, impact or punc-
tures, improper tire chains) .
(C) Irregular tread wear or rapid tread wear due to failure to rotate the tires at recommended intervals,
or from vehicle misalignment.
(D) Damage resulting from improper repair materials or procedures.
(E) Damage from incorrect mounting or dismounting of the tire, incorrect wheel size, or failure to balance
the tires.
(F) Damage or uneven tread wear from incorrect infla- tion, overloading, fire, theft, defective mechanical
conditions such as brakes, shocks, rims, wreck or
collision, and willful damage or abuse.
(G) Damage, corrosion, or rubber deterioration due to the use of oil-based chemicals, water-based seal-
ers, balancing substances, or flammable gases.
(H) Ride, balance, or vibration complaints after the first 25% of tread wear.
(I) Minor surface blemishes due to weathering and normal wear and tear which do not affect the
serviceability of the tire. (J) Any tire which has been run to destruction while flat.
(K) Tires used in commercial service.
(L) Claims after 5 years from the date the tire was
manufactured.
(M) Tires on vehicles normally operated outside the United States.
(N) Claims made by anyone other than the original retail purchaser of the vehicle.
(O) Tires with the D.O.T. identification number removed or rendered illegible, or branded "used".
(P) Any claim where the tire is not presented and available for Toyo's inspection.
(Q) Any tire for which mileage and tire rotation records are not available or verifiable.
(R) Any tires worn beyond the wear bars (less than 2/ 32" remaining tread) .
(S) Temporary spare tires used at speeds over 50 miles per hour.
(T) Dealer service charges are not covered for routine or required maintenance of the tires such as align-
ments or rotation.
CONSUMER’S OBLIGATION
The consumer is responsible for proper tire care and
maintenance:
(1) Tires must be rotated every 7,500 miles or sooner if upon inspection, irregular or erratic tread wear is begin-
ning to appear. Keep a record of the rotation.
(2) The consumer must maintain the recommended air
TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
(Continued on page 31)

TREAD WEAR INDICATORS (WEAR BARS): Tires
contain Tread Wear Indicators (Wear Bars) in the grooves
of the tire tread which show up when only
2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) of tread is remaining.
At this stage, your tires must be replaced. Tires
worn beyond this stage are dangerous.
HAZARDSObjects 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 Manufacturers
Association (RMA). Follow these mounting recom-
mendations. Your tires should be mounted on wheels of
correct size and type and which are in good, clean condi- tion. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may cause tire dam-
age. 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, mismatched 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 (6mm) in diameter can usually be repaired by following
the Rubber Manufacturer's Association (RMA) Passenger
and Light Truck Repair procedures. Contact the manufac-
turer 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 ratings 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 (6mm), 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 BALANCINGWheel 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 alignment or balance.
These conditions not only shorten the life of your tires, but
adversely affect the handling characteristics of your vehicle
which could be dangerous. If you detect irregular wear or
vibration, have your alignment and balance checked imme-
diately. Tires which have been run underinflated will show
more wear on the shoulders than in the center of the tread.
