Ford Tire Warranty: Flat Tire? No Problem
Learn about the Ford tire warranty, covering repairs and replacements for flat tires and more, keeping you worry-free on the road.
Your tires are the foundation of your vehicle’s safety, performance, and comfort.
While Ford vehicles are known for their toughness and reliability, tires inevitably face wear and tear from daily driving. Whether it’s a sharp object on the road, a pothole, or general wear, understanding your Ford tire warranty is crucial for peace of mind.
At Granger Ford, we’re committed to helping you protect your tires and your wallet by offering comprehensive protection plans, including the Ford Protect TireCARE.
Every new Ford vehicle comes with a standard tire warranty, but it’s important to know what’s covered and what isn’t. Here’s an overview of the basics:
Key Features | Details |
Limited Warranty Coverage | Ford’s standard tire warranty covers defects in materials or workmanship. If a tire fails due to a manufacturing defect, it may be eligible for repair or replacement. |
Coverage Period | Coverage typically lasts between 12 and 36 months depending on the tire brand and model. |
Treadwear Protection | Some tire manufacturers offer treadwear warranties, guaranteeing a specific mileage threshold before wear becomes significant. If your tire wears prematurely, you may qualify for a prorated replacement. |
What’s Not Covered | The standard tire warranty does not cover damage from road hazards (potholes, nails), uneven wear due to alignment issues, or normal wear and tear. |
Ford’s standard tire warranty gives you protection against manufacturing defects, but for additional coverage, especially for road hazards, Ford Protect TireCARE is an excellent option.
Even with proper care, your tires might face various issues over time. Some of the most common tire problems include:
