THIS PROGRAM IS PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE WITH YOUR ELIGIBLE TIRE PURCHASE. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO PURCHASE THIS PROGRAM AS A CONDITION TO THE PURCHASE OF ANY PRODUCT OR AS A CONDITION TO THE EXTENSION OF CREDIT.

TO SUBMIT A CLAIM, YOU MUST PRESENT YOUR ORIGINAL PURCHASE INVOICE (RECEIPT) SHOWING THE PURCHASE OF THE TIRE

This Tire Road Hazard Program (“Program”) is included with new tires you purchase from GoodSamTire.com and is administered by Sonsio Management, Inc. (“Program Administrator”).

The Seller of the tires covered by this complimentary Road Hazard Program is identified by name and address on the original tire purchase invoice, the “Original Purchase Invoice”, which is attached to and made a part of this Program terms and conditions statement.

WHAT IS COVERED: This Program covers only the tires (i) purchased by you, the Customer, from GoodSamTire.com (“Original Retailer”); (ii) which are installed on your recreational vehicle, travel trailer, or passenger vehicle; and (ii) that are listed clearly on the Original Purchase Invoice, identified by the brand, type, size, listed part/SKU number, and a unique road hazard registration number for each tire (“Eligible Tires”). This Program is limited to the repair or replacement of Eligible Tires damaged by a road hazard as described below.

TERM OF COVERAGE: This Program covers Eligible Tires for a term of 12 months from the date on your Original Purchase Invoice for the tires, or until any part of the tire tread that comes in contact with the road has a tread depth of 3/32” or less, or the tire is replaced, whichever occurs first (“Coverage Term”).

WHAT IS ROAD HAZARD DAMAGE? Road hazard damage is damage that occurs when a tire fails as a result of a puncture, bruise, or impact break incurred during the course of normal driving on a road maintained by state or local authority (including roads maintained by state or national park services, or improved campgrounds). Nails, glass and potholes are the most common examples of road hazards.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS? During the Coverage Term, when an eligible tire is damaged by a road hazard, this Program provides reimbursement as defined below for flat tire repair and/or tire replacement, up to the original purchase price of the tire or the replacement tire price, whichever is less, not to exceed the maximum limits set forth in the table below (“Benefit Limit”), plus ground shipping cost up to $50.00 if the replacement tire is purchased from GoodSamTire.com.

Flat Tire Repair Maximum = $50.00 per tire
Tire Replacement Maximum = $800.00 per tire

WHAT ARE THE LIMITATIONS?

• You must present your GoodSamTire.com Original Purchase Invoice which provides the following information:
• Your full name and address

• Program Administrator reserves the right to limit reimbursement to the generally accepted retail replacement costs.
• The benefits of this Program are secondary to any other coverage you may have purchased including motor club contracts and vehicle service contracts that provide tire and/or wheel coverage. When an Eligible Tire is damaged by a road hazard and another company provides any reimbursement for the tire, the maximum amount reimbursable under this Program will be less the amount of their reimbursement.

You are responsible for any additional charges including, but not limited to shop supplies. It is not necessary to contact the Program Administrator before having a flat tire repaired. The Program will remain in effect for the repaired tire for the remainder of the Term.

TIRE REPLACEMENT: If, during the Coverage Term, an Eligible Tire is damaged due to a covered road hazard, have the tire replaced by a tire service center with an exact make/model of tire if available. If not available, a comparable quality tire should be installed. Reimbursement for the replacement tire will not exceed the Benefit Limit.
