CONFIDENCE WARRANTY POLICY

All tires sold by AP Blue Whale Corp/ North Trend Marketing Corp/ Solid Trend Trade Sales Inc., are free from all manufacturing defects. Our warranty policy covers the (7) year warranty from date of purchase or the tread life of the tire whichever comes first.

ELIGIBILITY FOR CONFIDENCE WARRANTY

This Limited Warranty applies only if all of the following conditions are met:

• You are the original purchaser of a CST brand radial passenger/ ultra-light truck tire;
• The tire was originally purchased from an authorized dealer/distributor of AP Blue Whale Corp. or Solid Trend Trade Sales Inc.
• The tire has been used only on the vehicle on which it was originally installed.
• The tire has the appropriate size and load range for the vehicle according to the vehicle manufacturer's recommendation;
• A claim under this Limited Warranty may be made by presenting to the CST authorized dealer/distributor the original proof of purchase for the tires

LIMITED WARRANTY ON MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP

Should a radial passenger/ ultra-light truck tire be determined unserviceable by an authorized dealer/distributor due to a condition other than one listed in the "WHAT IS NOT COVERED" section of this policy, the tire will be replaced with the same or comparable radial passenger/light truck tire at no charge (other than labor and taxes) during the first 10% of tread wear.

After the first 10% of tread wear, should a CST radial passenger/light truck tire be determined unserviceable by an authorized dealer/distributor due to a condition other than those listed in the "WHAT IS NOT COVERED" section of this policy, you will receive a replacement pro-rated credit toward the purchase of a comparable new CST tire equal to the percentage of usable tread remaining. Usable tread does not include the last 1.6mm of tread depth, since tires worn beyond the last 1.6mm are considered unsafe by the law of the Philippines. You are required to pay all labor costs incurred in mounting and balancing the tire to all applicable taxes.

YOUR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS CONFIDENCE WARRANTY

In order to claim under this Confidence Warranty, the tires must be properly installed, air pressure should be checked at regular intervals and the tires must be rotated, balanced, and the alignment checked every 5,000 to 7,500 kilometers. Charges for required maintenance are your responsibility. Service records for all such required maintenance must be kept and presented upon any claim under this Limited Warranty.

IMPORTANT NOTE

LIMITATION OF WARRANTY AND LIABILITY

Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail in service or otherwise become unserviceable due to conditions beyond the control of the manufacturer. This warranty is not intended as a representation that a tire failure cannot occur.

Full and/or prorated replacement of a CST radial passenger tire constitutes the sole and exclusive remedy available to you in the event of breach of any warranty or of any agreement between you and AP Blue Whale Corp/ Solid Trend Trade Sales Inc. or its authorized dealer/ distributor.

In no event shall CST or its authorized dealer/distributor be liable for any incidental, indirect, special or consequential damages or liabilities (including, but not limited to, incidental or consequential damages for loss of time, inconvenience, loss of use of vehicle, towing, road service, or any other consequential or incidental loss) in connection with the purchase, use or operation of the tire, whether due to a breach of warranty, breach of contract or otherwise. This warranty is limited to the replacement of the determined unserviceable tire and does not in any way cover property damage or physical injury caused by accidents or unforeseen events involving tire failure.
