5 Years MAXAM OTR Tyre Limited Warranty, Same with Michelin, Bridgestone
The following warranty contains certain rights and obligations that pertain to MAXAM branded Off-The-Road (OTR), Industrial, Construction, Bias Agricultural, large Mining tyres and Forestry tires. Please review these rights and obligations carefully.
Maxam OTR Tyre Warranty Definition
This Limited Warranty covers all MAXAM branded Off-The-Road (OTR), Industrial, Construction, large Mining tires, Bias Agricultural and Forestry tires as designated in MAXAM OTR and AG product listings (price books, catalogs and leaflets). This does not apply to used, DA, or “NA” (not adjustable) tires.
Maxam OTR Tyre Warranty Eligibility
Every tire bearing the name MAXAM and with a complete serial number moulded in the sidewall is warranted to be free from manufacturing defects within the manufacturer’s control. If an examination by an authorized MAXAM representative shows that any such tire failed as a result of manufacturing defects, it will, at the option of MAXAM, either be repaired at no charge, or a credit will be issued toward the purchase price of a replacement tire, being a comparable MAXAM OTR product. This credit will be determined by applying the lesser of the percentage of remaining tread depth (RTD%) and the maximum age based credit shown in the following chart. The replacement percentage will be multiplied by the original purchase price of the tire (excluding any taxes or duties) to determine the amount of credit to be applied. Customer is responsible for the disposal of all adjusted tires. This warranty coverage is for tires used within published designed specifications for MAXAM tires. To be eligible for warranty, the tire must have at least 5/32nds (4mm) of remaining tread. The customer will make any claimed tire available for inspection or will coordinate with MAXAM for return shipment to MAXAM upon request. If return shipment is requested, MAXAM will bear all shipping costs and provide Return Goods Authorization and arrange pickup. Any use outside such specifications automatically voids this warranty. Please consult MAXAM technical leaflets, etc. for design specifications.
Maxam OTR Tyre Warranty Time Period
This warranty applies for a maximum period of FIVE YEARS (60 months) from date of tire purchase, which is same years with world two toppest OTR brands Michelin and Bridgestone. If no invoice or documentation of the tire purchase can be provided, the date of tire manufacture will be used. The date of manufacture can be determined by the first six digits in the serial number code.

Maxam OTR Tyre Warranty Limitations
This Limited Warranty is applicable to the original purchaser and is not assignable to subsequent purchasers. No MAXAM dealer, agent, or representative has the authority to make or imply any representation, promise or agreement which in any way varies or extends the terms of this warranty. Any tire, no matter how well manufactured, may fail in service or become unserviceable due to conditions beyond the control of the manufacturer.
This Limited Warranty is under no circumstances a representation that a tire failure cannot occur. This limited warranty gives you specific rights and you may also have other rights which may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. To the extent that the provisions of any applicable legislation expressly replace, eliminate, amend or prohibit any term or terms contained herein, such term or terms shall be accordingly replaced, eliminated, amended or extended, as the case may be, in accordance with such legislation.
