Mitas has announced a significant upgrade of warranty conditions on its premium radial agricultural tyres. All Mitas Premium tyres manufactured and/or sold after January 2014 in Europe now have six years’ warranty coverage from the date of production, a free 24-month replacement tyre policy and three years’ field hazard qualifying period.
Through upgraded warranty conditions, Mitas supports the launch of Mitas Premium as a substitution of Continental-branded agricultural tyres on the replacement market that begins in January 2016. The tyres bear the same premium quality and the same or improved technical specifications as the original Continental tyres. This allows Mitas to significantly improve the warranty conditions.
“The warranty conditions on Mitas Premium tyres reflect our confidence in the product quality, offering the best overall warranty on the agricultural market,” Mitas’ marketing and sales director, Andrew Mabin, said. “New warranty conditions of Mitas Premium are providing our customers with complete peace of mind and confidence in the tyre and support service behind the product.”
Mitas Premium tyres switched Continental-branded agricultural tyres on Original Equipment in 2015, and the process of brand change continues also on the replacement market. From 2016, Mitas Premium tyres are available on the replacement market as well. Mitas continues to support the premium quality of its tyres by improving the following warranty conditions:
- warranty coverage is now for a maximum period of six years from the date of production;
- a tyre will be replaced free of charge if it suffers a failure due to a manufacturing fault during 24 months from the date of production or has less than 25 per cent of tread wear (whichever comes first); and
- if a tyre running under normal agricultural service conditions becomes completely unserviceable and non-repairable due to field hazards, the customer will receive replacement credit toward the purchase of a replacement Mitas tyre. Where appropriate all compensation will be individually determined upon thorough evaluation by Mitas’ claim technicians. The field hazard qualifying period is three years following the purchase of the tyre or machine.
Detailed terms and conditions will be available at local Mitas dealers.
