Are Tires Covered Under Warranty?
Some Tires are Covered Under Warranty. However, not all Tire Warranties or Tire Protection Programs are the same. There are some key factors to know about Tire Warranty Programs and what they cover. Since we never tire of talking Tires, let's discuss!
Warranty Type: Most New Tires, at purchase, come with a
Manufacturer's Tire Warranty. The manufacturer's warranty covers Tire Defects in the materials and workmanship when they are produced at the factory. They don't generally cover Tire Wear, Road Hazard or Tire Ware caused by Alignment issues. These Tire Warranties require proof of having a Wheel Alignment done at the time of installation. As Newport NH's Tire Professionals, we have the equipment to Mount & Balance your New Tires as well as Perform Wheel Alignments!
Tire Protection Programs:These types of Tire Protection Warranty Programs are sold by the Auto Repair Shop in conjunction with the purchase of the New Tires. Any Auto Repair Shop that offers a Tire Protection Program has their own program coverage so what you get will vary from shop to shop.
Let's breakdown the most common Manufacturer's Tire Warranty Coverage:
Tire Treadwear Warranty (Mileage Warranty): This guarantees you'll get a certain number of miles of use on the Tire before the tread wears out and the Tires Need Replacement. If your Tires Wear Prematurely, the manufacturer will generally give you a prorated refund.
Workmanship & Materials Warranty: This covers any defects caused during the manufacturing process or by defective materials.
