Vredestein Tires Limited Warranty

LIMITED WARRANTY

This limited warranty (“Warranty”) only applies to the original retail purchaser, from an authorized Vredestein dealer located in the 50

United States or the District of Columbia or any province or territory of Canada, of a new replacement Vredestein-brand passenger or

light truck tire of certain tread design patterns listed below that was installed on a vehicle used for personal, family or household

purposes, and was never installed or used on any vehicle other than the vehicle on which it was originally installed. Additionally, to be

eligible for coverage under this Warranty, the tire must be the size, load index, and speed rating equivalent to or greater than that

specified by the manufacturer of the vehicle on which it was installed. Proof of purchase is required for any applicable coverage under

the Warranty. Warranty exclusions are set forth below, including in the section “Exclusions from the Warranty”; these exclusions apply

to all coverages included in the Warranty.

If the tread wears out (i.e., the tread becomes worn to 2/32” (1.59mm) shown by the tread wear indicators molded into the tread

grooves) on any of a set of four Vredestein tires in the above patterns installed on the same vehicle before the accompanying miles

(km) is reached, you will be given a credit toward an equivalent new Vredestein tire equal to the pro-rated cost of the new tire for the

difference between the miles (km) warranted and the number of miles that the original tire was used (i.e. credit = [miles warranted –

actual miles traveled] / miles warranted x current selling price of an equivalent new Vredestein tire).

To be eligible for this coverage, you must rotate the tires every 6,000 miles (9,956 km) in accordance with prescribed rotation patterns

or more frequently as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer, and you must provide evidence of rotation and maintenance

including alignment upon request. Some vehicles come from the vehicle manufacturer with “split fitments”– meaning different size

tires on the front and rear axles. As these tires cannot be rotated as recommended by Vredestein, the mileage warranty on each rear

tire will cover half the number of miles as the standard mileage warranty for that tire design.

VORTI+, ULTRAC VORTI R+, PINZA AT P-METRIC, PINZA HT P-METRIC, SNOWTRAC 5, WINTRAC, WINTRAC PRO TREAD PATTERN

DESIGN ONLY)

You will be given an equivalent new tire, free of charge, if any tire within a set of four Quatrac 5, Quatrac, Quatrac Pro, HiTrac, Hypertrac,

Ultrac Vorti+, Ultrac Vorti R+, Pinza AT P-Metric, Pinza HT P-Metric, Snowtrac 5, Wintrac, or Wintrac Pro tires installed on the same

vehicle suffers non-repairable damage from puncture, snag, cut, bruise or impact break caused by road hazards (for example, nails,

glass, potholes, and other debris) while driving on maintained roads before the earlier of the loss of the first 2/32”

(1.59 mm) of tread depth or one (1) year from the date of purchase.

THIS IS NOT A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY THAT A TIRE CANNOT OR WILL NOT SUFFER NON-REPAIRABLE DAMAGE OR

FAIL IN SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, DUE TO PUNCTURE, SNAG, CUT, BRUISE, OR IMPACT BREAK CAUSED BY

ROAD HAZARDS. TIRES CAN AND DO SUFFER NON-REPAIRABLE DAMAGE AND FAIL IN SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT

LIMITATION, DUE TO PUNCTURE, SNAG, CUT, BRUISE, OR IMPACT BREAK CAUSED BY ROAD HAZARDS, AS WELL AS OTHER

FACTORS. YOU REMAIN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROPER USE, MAINTENANCE, AND REMOVAL FROM SERVICE OF YOUR TIRES.

STANDARD COVERAGE (ALL TREAD PATTERN DESIGNS)

If your Vredestein-brand passenger or light truck tire becomes unserviceable as a result of any issues with materials or workmanship

within the manufacturer’s control within one (1) year from the date of purchase and before the loss of the first 2/32” (1.59 mm) of tread

depth, Vredestein will give you an equivalent new tire free of charge. If your Vredestein-brand passenger or light truck tire becomes

unserviceable as a result of any issues with materials or workmanship within the manufacturer’s control after one (1) year from the date

of purchase or after the loss of the first 2/32” (1.59 mm) of tread depth, but there remains at least 2/32” (1.59 mm) of tread depth on the

tire, Vredestein will give you a prorated credit towards an equivalent new Vredestein tire equal to the cost of the new tire times the

percentage of the original usable tread depth that remains on the tire at the time it becomes unserviceable (i.e. credit = [original tread

depth – remaining tread depth] / [original tread depth – 2/32” (1.59 mm)] x cost of the new tire).

PROVISIONS THAT APPLY TO ALL COVERAGES, TRIAL PERIODS, PROGRAMS, AND COMPONENTS OF THE WARRANTY

EXCLUSIONS FROM THE WARRANTY:

This Warranty does not cover the following tires or issues, all of which are expressly excluded from the Warranty:

• Any tires that become unserviceable due to:

o Conditions caused by road hazards, such as (i) impact break, (ii) cuts, (iii) punctures, or (iv) snags, except to the extent

covered by the Limited Road Hazard Replacement Program for the limited duration thereof, if applicable, and

subject to all limitations thereto and all other exclusions in the “Exclusions from the Warranty.”

• Ride disturbances after the first 2/32” (1.59mm) of treadwear or due to damaged wheels or any vehicle condition, or one (1) year

from the date of manufacture, whichever is first.

• Any tires that have had any material added to the tire after the tire leaves the manufacturer’s factory (e.g., tire fillers, sealants,

balancing substances, etc.).

• Any tires that are used not in full accordance with the intended use of the vehicle on which they were mounted and the

recommendations of the vehicle manufacturer.

• Any tires used outside of the United States or Canada.

• Any tires used in any commercial services (e.g., tires used for taxi service, delivery, etc.).

• Any tires stored improperly.

• Any tires installed on any vehicle other than the vehicle on which they were originally installed.

• Any tires that were acquired as used (e.g., tires purchased used, equipped on a pre-owned vehicle, etc.).

• Any tires that have been altered in any manner after leaving the manufacturer’s factory (e.g., additional siping, buffing, stud

pin holes, re-grooving, truing, etc.).

• Any tires worn to 2/32” (1.59mm) or less of remaining tread depth as shown by the tread wear indicators molded into the tread

grooves.

• Any tires with ozone or weather-cracking or weather-checking that are over four (4) years from the date of manufacture or

date of purchase.

• Any tires (8) years or older from the DOT date printed on the sidewall of the tire*

* While most tires will need to be replaced sooner, Vredestein recommends that any tire (including a spare tire) that was manufactured

more than eight (8) years previous (as determined by the DOT code stamped on the tire) be removed from service and replaced from

service with a new tire, even if the tire appears serviceable and even if it has not reached the legal treadwear limit. Any tire that should

otherwise be replaced based on wear, damage, or any other factor should not be kept in service regardless of the tire’s date of

manufacture. A stated removal period in no way reduces your responsibility to replace tires earlier as needed. If you have questions

about the condition or serviceability of your tire, have it inspected by a tire service professional. Also, vehicle manufacturers may

recommend a shorter chronological age at which a tire should be replaced based on their understanding of the specific vehicle

application. Vredestein recommends that you refer to the vehicle’s owners’ manual for guidance on the vehicle manufacturer’s

replacement recommendations. Vredestein recommends that any such vehicle manufacturer’s instruction or recommendation to

replace tires at an earlier chronological age be followed (but regardless of any such vehicle manufacturer’s instruction or

recommendation, any tire’s replacement period should not exceed 8 years from the tire’s date of manufacture).

This Warranty extends only to the original retail consumer. This Warranty is not transferrable. This Warranty does not extend

to purchasers who are not consumers (e.g., commercial entities).

There are no express warranties on Vredestein-brand tires other than this Warranty. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION AND LIMITATIONS

OF THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY AND ARE OTHERWISE FULLY DISCLAIMED. NO OTHER WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION

OF ANY KIND IS MADE BY VREDESTEIN OR SHALL BE IMPLIED BY LAW.

Some states and other jurisdictions do not allow limitation on how long an implied warranty last, so the above limitation may

not apply to you.

LIMITATION OF DAMAGES: IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE, INCLUDING FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY,

NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT, ON ANY PRODUCT LIABILITY AND/OR STRICT LIABILITY THEORY, OR ANY OTHER

THEORY OF LIABILITY, SHALL VREDESTEIN BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR ANY

INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, LOST PROFIT, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF GOODWILL OR

REPUTATION, PUNITIVE OR OTHER DAMAGE, COST (INCLUDING FOR REPLACEMENT TRANSPORTATION), EXPENSE, OR

LOSS OF ANY KIND.

Some states and other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the

above exclusion may not apply to you.

This Warranty does not cover taxes or the cost of any services that you incur for anyone to inspect, attempt to repair, or

remove any tires covered by this Warranty, or to replace, handle, mount, or balance replacement tires, or any other charges for

labor. Under all circumstances you will be responsible to pay those taxes and costs.

No representative or dealer has authority to make any representation, promise, or agreement on behalf of Vredestein, except

as stated in this Warranty. Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may become unserviceable, including fail in service, due

to conditions beyond the control of the manufacturer. Under no circumstances 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 or province to

province.

To make a claim under this Warranty, contact the dealer from which you purchased the tires. (If that dealer no longer exists,

or no longer handles Vredestein tires, contact Vredestein at the contact details set out below.) You may be required to sign a

claim form supplied by the dealer or Vredestein.

This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
