All invoices for tyre maintenance must be retained by the purchaser as proof.
- The vehicle's tyre pressure must be checked regularly according to the vehicle manufacturer specifications. Use of over or under inflated tyres will void the TyreLife Mileage Warranty and Protection Plan.

- Incorrect usage, vandalism, damage caused by an accident, mechanical defects and/or driver abuse.
- Damage resulting from improper installation, wheel misalignment, or tyre/wheel assembly imbalance.
- Damage resulting from consumer damage, such as improper tyre and vehicle maintenance or tyre misuse.

MILEAGE WARRANTY SPECIFIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS
- The mileage warranty is only valid provided four (4) or more tyres are purchased simultaneously and are at all times fitted to the same vehicle.
- It is compulsory that wheel alignment is conducted at the time of fitment.
MILEAGE WARRANTY ENTITLEMENT
Should the tyre/s not achieve the specified mileage, providing the warranty terms and conditions have been met, a qualifying claim should be submitted to an authorised distributor/dealer for assessment.
An adjustment will be made on the replacement cost of the next purchase of an equivalent new tyre of the same brand and for the same vehicle. The replacement cost adjustment will be determined by dividing the current selling price of the replacement tyre (excluding any levies, VAT, fitment or balancing) by the warranted mileage i.e. specified kms and multiplying the result by the number of kilometres not achieved. This rand value will be deducted from the price of the new tyre.
The original purchaser must present supporting documentation including original tyre invoice and tyre maintenance invoices as stipulated in the terms and conditions.
Compensation for unachieved kilometres will be calculated based on the current selling price and a pro rata discount will be awarded on the next Cooper or Mickey Thompson tyre purchase. The cost of fitting, balancing, alignment and other services on original and replacement tyres are for the purchaser's account.
Consumers must not drive with less than the legal tread limit (as specified in the National Roads Act of 1996).
TYRELIFE PROTECTION PLAN SPECIFIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS
- This protection plan applies for (1) one year from the invoice date of the tyres. Tyres registered prior to 28 February 2023 will be covered for (2) two years on the Protection Plan.
- Vehicles used in all/any commercial applications are not covered on the Protection Plan.
- While off-road use is covered on the Protection Plan, this is subject to adhering to the vehicle manufacturers recommended load ratings.
- The cover is only valid for the replacement of a tyre that has suffered irreparable damage. No other resultant damage from the event to any persons or property including third parties are the responsibility of TyreLife Solutions.
- This tyre Protection Plan is void if the tyres have not been adequately maintained as per the General Terms and Conditions.
TYRELIFE PROTECTION PLAN CLAIM PROCEDURE
- The purchaser must submit a claim at a Cooper or Mickey Thompson Dealer
- The dealer will inspect the tyre for the cause of the damage and consider whether the damage is irreparable.

- The damaged tyre must be replaced with a new equivalent Cooper or Mickey Thompson tyre.
- The compensation that the purchaser receives is calculated by measuring the remaining tread that cannot now be used.
- The cost of fitting, balancing, alignment and VAT on the replacement tyre/s is for the purchaser's account.
- TyreLife Solutions shall advise the dealer within 7 days of receipt of the completed claim submission of the acceptance or rejection of the claim.
