FOR DAYTON TRUCK TIRES PRODUCED AFTER January 1, 1995

ELIGIBILITY
You are covered under the terms of this warranty: (a) if you are the authorized agent of the first retail purchaser of any new DAYTON truck tire manufactured after January 1, 1995 (DOT date after 0195) (exclusive of special casing warranty provisions) bearing the DAYTON name and Department of Transportation (DOT) assigned identification number, and (b) the tire is of a size equivalent to or greater than that specified for use by the vehicle manufacturer’s or Bridgestone/Firestone recommendations.

WHAT THIS WARRANTY COVERS AND FOR HOW LONG
If, before wearing down to 2/32nds of an inch of original tread depth (i.e., worn down to the top of the built -in indicators in the tread grooves), or 6 years from the date of manufacture (referenced by the last three digits of the DOT number), whichever occurs first, an examination by Bridgestone/Firestone shows that any tire covered by this warranty has become unusable for any reason within the manufacturer’s control, such tire will either be repaired at no charge or replaced with an equivalent new Dayton tire on the basis set forth below.

No- Charge Replacement:
If, within the first 10% of original usable tread depth wear or 12 months from date of purchase (proof of purchase required), whichever occurs first, a Dayton truck tire becomes unusable for conditions within the manufacturer’s control, the tire will, at Bridgestone/Firestone’s option, be replaced free of charge (Federal Excise Tax included). The cost of mounting, balancing, and other service charges, disposal fees, or applicable taxes are payable by you.

Pro- Rated Replacement:
If a Dayton truck tire is worn beyond the first 10% of original usable tread wear and becomes unusable for conditions within the manufacturer’s control, the tire will, at Bridgestone/Firestone’s option, be repaired or replaced with an equivalent new Dayton tire on a pro-rata basis. You will be charged for the tread wear pro-rated by multiplying the current dealer selling price of the tire (in effect at the time for adjustment) by the percentage of original tread depth that has been worn from the tire. The cost of mounting, balancing, full Federal Excise Tax, and other service charges, disposal fees, or applicable taxes are payable by you.

Any such claims submitted after the first 1/32” of wear will be rejected.
6. All tube-type tires should be used with proper size Firestone tubes exclusively.
7. Warranties apply to original usable tread depth and do not extend to retreaded tires.
