You are eligible for the benefits set forth below if you are the owner of any Vogue Custom Built Radial Tyres bearing our name and serial numbers (“Tyres”).  These benefits are available only for Tyres that were purchased and primarily used by you in the 50 states of the United States and have been used exclusively on the passenger car, light truck, van or recreational vehicle (which may include any of those which is rented or leased) on which they were originally installed. 

1.         Limited Warranty.  Vogue warrants exclusively to you that the Tyres will be free from defects in materials and workmanship.  If any Tyre becomes unusable during the first 50% (for a passenger vehicle) or 25% (for an SUV/light truck) of the Tyre’s original tread life, as measured by the depth of tread remaining, due to any breach of this limited warranty, we will replace the Tyre with a comparable new Vogue Tyre.  If any Tyre is usable but causes ride complaints during the first 10% of the Tyre’s original tread life due to any breach of this limited warranty, we will replace the Tyre with a comparable new Vogue Tyre.  If any Tyre is usable but becomes defective for cosmetic reasons during the first 25% of the Tyre’s original tread life due to any breach of this limited warranty, we will replace the Tyre with a comparable new Vogue Tyre.  If any Tyre becomes unusable after the first 50% (for a passenger vehicle) or 25% (for an SUV/light truck) of the Tyre’s original tread life due to any breach of this limited warranty, we will give you a credit against the purchase price of a comparable new Vogue Tyre based on the depth of the Tyre’s tread then remaining.  This paragraph sets forth our entire and exclusive obligations for any breach of this limited warranty.  Such obligations will be subject to paragraph 4 below.

2.         Credit for Mileage Expectancy.  Every new Tyre is built to deliver an expected tread life (until worn to tread depth indicators 2/32) of at least 80,000 miles for “S” speed rated passenger Tyres, 60,000 miles for “H” speed rated passenger Tyres or 40,000 miles for SUV/light truck Tyres on the original vehicle.  If a Tyre wears down to its tread depth indicators evenly across the tread surface before delivering the expected miles, we will give you a credit against the purchase of a comparable new Vogue Tyre based on the mileage not received (determined by the odometer reading). 

3.         Road Hazard Assistance.  If any Tyre is damaged beyond repair due to a road hazard, we will give you a credit against the purchase of a comparable Vogue Tyre, based on either the applicable minimal mileage amount set forth in paragraph 2 above not yet received or the percentage of the original tread depth remaining to the 2/32 indicators, whichever is more advantageous to you. 

4.         Road Service Assistance.  If any passenger or SUV/light truck (White with Gold Stripe) Tyre with a Puncture Control Pad loses air for any reason, to the extent that it cannot be driven to a nearby service station for repair, we will, in addition to any remedies provided above:

(a)        Pay for your road service, from the nearest service point, to replace the Tyre with a spare tire; or  

(b)        Pay for the cost to repair the flat Tyre ($10.00 maximum).

5.         Causes Not Covered.  Vogue’s obligations under paragraphs 1-2 above do not cover or apply to unusability, defects or wear caused by use of improper rim widths, improper inflation, misalignment, overloading (use with a lesser maximum load-carrying capacity than recommended by the vehicle manufacturer), the mechanical condition of the vehicle, racing, chain damage, fire, theft, highway conditions, wreck collision, willful abuse, repairable punctures, faulty installment other than by Vogue personnel or other conditions beyond Vogue’s control.  Also not covered is ozone or weather cracking on the Tyres more than five years after the original user’s purchase date.  We recommend using a soft brush with a non-abrasive cleaner such as Vogue Whitewall Cleaner for cleaning.  The use of harsh or abrasive cleaning agents, chemicals containing bleach, wire brushes, steel wool or other such implements may damage the Tyre sidewall and will negate our obligations under paragraphs 1 and 2.  We reserve the right to not deem worn for purposes of the above provisions tread which, in our opinion, has been prematurely worn due to abusive use and/or service conditions. 

6.         Requirements.  To have any Tyre replaced or receive a credit in accordance with the above provisions, you must present the affected Tyre and a signed, duly filled out Vogue Claim Form at a Vogue dealer or service store.  You may identify such a dealer or store and obtain such form by contacting Vogue at its address or number set forth below.  A minimum charge of $10.00 will be made for all Tyre replacements.  You will be required to pay for any services and applicable sales or other taxes.
