However, if a warrantable tire is found defective, the company examines the product and facilitates you by making certain adjustments if the terms and conditions are applicable. i.e., the defect is due to material or workmanship.  

The adjustments allotted to customers directly depend on how much you have used the tire. Nankang makes the adjustments on a pro-rata basis considering the most recent purchase price of the product.

Period to claim the warranty

Your warranty expires once the timer reaches the time limit provided by the Nankang. There are two cases listed below, and whichever is reached first, will be implied in case of a warranty claim.

  • From the date you purchased the tire, you will have 5 years of warranty.
