CONSUMER ASSISTANCE Using Lift Kits • Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tire combinations can cause instability or loss of control. When changing tire sizes, always consult an installer for optimum rim width and carefully check vehicle/tire clearances. WARNING! Tires and the spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure. You could lose control and have an accident resulting in serious injury or death. • Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to the light as possible. • Protect tires from contact with oil, grease, and gasoline. NOTE: All tire warranties are made by the tire manufacturer. Tires are not covered under your Chrysler New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Check Your Tires For Damage • Frequent (at least monthly) inspection of your tires for signs of damage, uneven tread wear and their general condition is important for safety. Impacts, penetrations, cracks, knots, bulges or air loss always require tire removal and expert inspection. Tire Service Life • The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including, but not limited to, your driving style, tire pressure and distance driven. 84
