MICHELIN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY W A R R A N T Y ⅷ ⅷ Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, alteration or vandalism. Ozone cracking or weather cracking. Replacement Charges A tire that becomes unserviceable due to a condition covered by this warranty within 12 months of the date of purchase and when 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) or less of the original tread is worn (or 25 percent or less, whichever is most beneficial to the user) will be replaced with a comparable new Michelin tire free of charge. Mounting and balancing are included. The cost of applicable taxes and any other services is payable by the user. After 12 months from the date of purchase or when more than 2/32nds of an inch of original tread has been worn (or more than 25 percent, whichever is most beneficial to the user), the user must pay the cost of a comparable new Michelin replacement tire on a pro rata basis. This cost is determined by multiplying the percentage of the original usable tread worn by the current selling price of the replacement tire at the adjustment location or the price on the current Michelin Base Price List, whichever is lower.* This list is based on predetermined prices intended to fairly represent the actual selling price of Michelin tires. The cost of applicable taxes, mounting, balancing and any other services is payable by the user. Making a Claim To make a claim under the terms of this warranty, present the tire to a participating Michelin retailer. To locate a participating retailer, check the Yellow Pages under "Tire Dealers - Retail." The vehicle on which the tire was used should be available to the Michelin retailer for inspection. *In Canada, pro rata replacement cost is calculated by multiplying the percentage of original usable tread worn by the current Michelin suggested retail price. 67 Y o u r W a r r a n t i e s i n D e t a i l
