NO ROAD HAZARD COVERAGE
Many dealers sell or provide their own warranty coverage for road hazards and/or repairs. Cooper Tire does not provide this coverage.
Check with your dealer to determine if Road Hazard/Repair coverage is available from them.
REPLACEMENT WARRANTY
If you receive a replacement tire under the terms of this Warranty, the replacement tire will be covered by the Warranty then currently
given by Cooper for the replacement tire.
WHERE TO GO FOR WARRANTY REPLACEMENT
See your Cooper dealer–listed in the yellow pages under Tire Dealers–Retail. In the event you are unable to locate a Cooper
dealer, you can obtain assistance by contacting the Consumer Relations Department, telephone number 1-800-822-8686.

CONDITIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail in service or otherwise become unserviceable due to conditions beyond the
control of the manufacturer. Nothing in this Warranty is intended to be a representation by Cooper that tire failure cannot occur.
TIRE SERVICE LIFE
Cooper recommends that all passenger and light truck tires, including full-size spare tires, that are beyond 10 years from their date
of manufacture, be replaced with new tires. Tires that are 10 or more years old should be replaced even if the tires appear to be
undamaged and have not reached their tread wear limits. In some cases, a vehicle manufacturer may make a recommendation for
tire replacement earlier than 10 years for their products based upon their understanding of the specific vehicle characteristics and
application. If so, you should follow those vehicle manufacturer's specific recommendations for their vehicle.
USED TIRES
Never purchase used tires! Previous usage may have damaged internal components. This damage may lead to sudden tire failure.
COOPER DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY STEMMING FROM THE USE OF A USED TIRE FOR LOSS OF TIME, OR USE,
INCONVENIENCE, OR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
Some states do not allow exclusion of incidental or consequential damages. As a result, this limitation or exclusion may not
apply to you.
CONSUMER RIGHTS
This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
OWNER’S OBLIGATION
When making a claim, you must return the tire to be replaced to your Cooper dealer.
Proper vehicle and tire care is necessary to obtain the expected wear from a tire. It is your obligation to properly maintain your
tires and the vehicle upon which they are mounted, including: (A) operating your tires at the inflation pressures recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer, (B) keeping your tire/wheel assemblies in balance, (C) proper wheel alignment, and (D) rotation.
You must check your tire’s inflation pressure at least monthly and before long trips.
We recommend that you have your Cooper dealer inspect your tires any time you notice irregular or uneven tread wear and rotate
them, if necessary. Also, they should be inspected by your dealer any time your vehicle is brought in for service.
