Subject:

GM DEALER'S RESPONSIBILITIES CONCERNING TIRE WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IRREGULAR/ PREMATURE WEAR

Models

Affected:

ALL MODELS

As in the past, tires continue to be warranted by the tire manufacturer against defects in material or workmanship..  Details of this limited warranty may
be found in each tire company warranty booklet, which is part of the glove box material.  The GM Warranty and Owner Assistance Booklet also now
states that the GM Dealer will assist the customer in obtaining a tire adjustment, if necessary.

Tire conditions caused by vehicle defects are warranted by General Motors.  This statement is now included in the GM Warranty And Owner Assistance
Booklet.  This applies during the basic coverage period, which is 12 months/12,000 miles, and should be applied to all past and current models.

Examples of tire conditions that fall within GM's responsibility may include tire damage during vehicle assembly, tire damage due to tire-to-vehicle
interference, and irregular/premature tire wear. Tire wear due to abusive driving is not covered by warranty.
