What is covered and for how long?

NO-CHARGE REPLACEMENT

FORTUNE tires covered by this warranty that become unserviceable due to Road Hazard, or a defect in workmanship or material during the first 2/32nds of usable tread depth will be replaced with a comparable new FORTUNE tire without charge. (Note: This road hazard coverage does not apply to ST01 or FST02 tires or tires used in commercial service, including ride-sharing, taxi, or delivery vehicles) The cost of any other service charges, including mounting and balancing, alignment, disposal fees, or applicable taxes are payable by you.

PRORATED REPLACEMENT

Tires worn beyond the first 2/32nds of usable tread that become unserviceable due to defects in workmanship or material will be replaced on a prorated basis. You are responsible for the cost of mounting and balancing, along with other service charges, disposal fees, or applicable taxes.

HOW PRORATED CHARGES ARE CALCULATED

The replacement price is determined by multiplying the dealer’s current FORTUNE replacement tire price by the percentage of tread worn from the original tread. Additionally, you are responsible for covering the expenses related to mounting, balancing and other service charges, disposal fees, or applicable taxes.

WHAT IS A COMPARABLE TIRE?

A “comparable” new FORTUNE tire may either be the same line of tire or, if the tire is not available, a tire of the same basic construction and quality with a different sidewall or tread design. If a higher-priced tire is accepted as replacement, the difference in price will be at an additional charge to you. Any replacement tire provided pursuant to this warranty will be covered by the FORTUNE passenger car and light truck warranty in effect at the time of replacement.

What is not covered by this warranty?

1. Any tire marked or labeled “Non-adjustable (N/A)”, or “Blemished (Blem)”, or previously adjusted/replaced under warranty.

2. Normal wear or damage from road hazards: Including punctures, cuts, snags or impact breaks–but only after the first 2/32″ of tread wear (covered earlier; see warranty terms). Also excludes damage from wrecks, collisions, fire, or vandalism.

3. Misuse or poor maintenance: Irregular wear or damage caused by under/overinflation, overloading, misapplication (e.g., tire spinning or racing), tire chains, improper mounting/demounting, or vehicle issues like misalignment, imbalance, bad shocks, or brakes.

4. Ride issues (vibrations/shakes): After the first 1/32″ (0.8 mm) of tread wear, or if caused by damaged wheels. (Note: We define “ride disturbance” as vehicle shakes or bounces from unbalanced tire/wheel setups or out-of-round tires. Claims limited to 1-2 tires per vehicle; 3+ denied.)

5. Service and labor costs: Mounting, balancing, alignment, disposal fees, or taxes–you pay these.

6. Age-related cracking: Ozone or weather cracks on tires over 4 years old from manufacture date (check DOT code on sidewall).

7. Modifications or transfers: Tires altered (e.g., added materials), regrooved or moved to another vehicle.

8. Indirect or consequential damages: Lost time, use of the vehicle, inconvenience, towing, or any incidental or consequential damages (e.g., repairs to the vehicle or other property resulting from tire failure).

9. Special uses: Tires used in commercial service (e.g., taxi, delivery, or ride-sharing vehicles); racing or competitive events; or off-road racing.

10. Location limits: Tires used or bought outside of the U.S. or Canada, or from unauthorized sellers.

11. Unauthorized purchases: Tires bought from unauthorized dealers or sellers.

When does the warranty end?

When a FORTUNE brand Passenger Car or Light Truck Tire has delivered its full original tread life down to 2/32nds (1.6mm) remaining at any given spot in the tread area, or five (5) years from the new tire purchase date
or seven (7) years from the date of original tire manufacture, whichever comes first. For ST Trailer tires, warranty ends after the tire has delivered its full original tread life down to 2/32nds (1.6mm) remaining at any given spot in the tread area, or three (3) years from the tire purchase date or five (5) years from the date of manufacturer, whichever comes first.

How do you obtain an adjustment?

A. Present the tire to an authorized FORTUNE dealer; and

B. Present proof of purchase (if applicable) to the dealer.

Proper Tire Inflation and Tire Safety

WARNING

DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT FROM:

A. Tire failure due to underinflation, overinflation and/or overloading.

B. Explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only specially trained persons should mount tires.

Proper inflation is critical—inflation pressure enables a tire to support
the load and to control the vehicle. Therefore proper inflation is critical. With the right amount of inflation pressure, the vehicle and the tires will achieve their optimum performance. In addition to tire safety, this means your tires will wear longer and improve vehicle fuel consumption. Note that some vehicles may have different cold inflation pressures for tires on the front and rear axles. The recommended inflation pressures for tires are typically measured in pounds per square inch (psi) and are indicated on the vehicle tire placard, certification label or in the owner’s manual. Underinflation causes excessive heat build-up and internal structural damage that may lead to a tire failure, even at a later date. Overinflation makes it more likely for tires to be cut, punctured or broken by sudden impact. These situations can cause a tire failure, including tread/belt separation, even at a later date, which could lead to an accident and serious personal injury or death.

Tire mounting instructions:

1. Only specially trained persons should mount tires. For detailed instructions on mounting passenger and light truck tires, refer to the USTMA wall chart “Demounting and Mounting Procedures for Passenger and Light Truck Tires.” Read and understand the procedures and safety warnings before proceeding. Follow installation safety procedures for mounting and inflating tires.

2. Always lubricate both beads and rim flanges with approved rubber lubricant.

3. Always match rim diameter with the tire diameter. Mount the tire only on the proper size rim. i.e.: Never mount a 16″ tire on a 16.5″ rim, it can cause severe injury or death.

4. Never inflate a tire that is lying on the floor or other flat surface. Always use a tire mounting machine with a hold down device, safety cage or bolted to the vehicle axle. Use a clip-on air chuck and in-line air valve of gauge.

5. Never stand, lean or reach over the tire and rim assembly when inflating.

6. Never inflate above 40 psi to seat beads.

7. After beads are seated, inflate to or adjust to the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended cold inflation pressure.
