Warranty Policy

Goodyear provides a limited warranty for all Goodyear branded passenger tyres and light trucktyres purchased from its authorised retailers for use in Sri Lanka.

Warranty Period:
From the assembly line to the road, Goodyear is focused on providing the best quality products for a confident drive with complete peace of mind. That’s why we back our tyres with a limited warranty for the usable tread life of the tire (remaining tread depth of 1.6mm or more) or 5 years from the date of manufacture, whichever expires earlier.

STEPS TO APPLY FOR A CLAIM OR AN ADJUSTMENT

Step 1 – Go back to the store of purchase and let them verify whether the tyre is claimable

Step 2 – If need be, the store of purchase may request and make an appointment with Goodyear Authorized Distributor to further inspect the affected tyres to determine whether tyre is claimable.

In the event that the tyres are found to have manufacturing defects, the customer will be compensated with a Pro-rated adjustment:

• A pro-rated adjustment with partial refund voucher will be extended to customers with proof of purchase (original invoice is to be submitted).
• To qualify for the adjustment, the remaining tread depth must be more than 1.6mm average across the surface of the tyre.
• Adjustment is granted for the affected tyre only.
• The adjustment will be based on the original invoice price or Goodyear’s recommended retail price, whichever is lower.
• GST will not be refunded.
• The affected tyre must be retained by the store of purchase.

Example of pro-rated adjustment calculation:

• Tire original (new) tread depth is 8.0mm
• Remaining tread depth is at 4mm (average across the surface of the affected tyre)
• (4mm – 1.6mm) / 8mm = 30%
• Goodyear’s recommended retail price or the original invoice price for the tire is $100 before GST.
• The refund is to be used to offset the purchase of new tyre/tyres from the store of purchase.
