3. HOW A PRO RATA PRICE IS CALCULATED The replacement tire price will be determined by multiplying the percentage of the useable tread worn by the Dealers Selling Price (excluding all applicable taxes) at the time of the adjustment or the Continental/General Tire brand current published Adjustment Base Price, whichever is lower. The usable tread is the original tread down to the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch or 1.6 mm of tread remaining). The Adjustment Base Price is intended to fairly represent a Dealers Selling Price for the same or comparable tire. 4. WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE ADJUSTMENT POLICY A. THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS ARE NOT COVERED: • Repairs: CTNA does not warrant any repaired tire. • Road Hazard: Any tire with road hazard damage, except for those conditions and certain tire lines that fall within the terms of coverage of the Road Hazard Coverage set forth in Section 4. This includes, but is not limited to: cuts, snags, punctures, bruises, and impact breaks. • Ride Vibration: Any ride/vibration complaint after the first 2/32nds (1.6mm) of an inch of treadwear or 12 months of service, whichever comes first. • Improper operation or maintenance: This includes, but is not limited to, effects caused by: ș Improper tire inflation and/or improper load/speed practices: These practices can cause excessive operational temperatures and stresses that exceed the tires's capabilities. ș Improper or insufficient tire rotation: Any tire with premature or irregular wear caused by failing to follow the recommended tire rotation pattern and/or mileage intervals. ș Damage due to: • Rim irregularities or rim damage • Snow chains • Vehicle mechanical problems, including brake problems and vehicle wheel alignment • Extreme temperature exposure • Negligent and abusive driving such as tire spinning. • Improper tire storage • Automotive accident • Chemical corrosion or fire • Misuse or misapplication • Improper Mounting or Demounting: • Alterations, such as adding a white inlay on blackwall, tread regrooving, tire truing or siping, or adding sealant materials to the tire. • Weather checking/cracking: not covered after 48 months from the date of manufacture. 7
