Are Flat Tire Punctures Covered by Warranty?Updated 3 days ago

Overview

This article explains whether flat tire punctures are covered under the standard warranty policy. You will learn what is and isn’t included in your warranty and why certain exclusions apply.

Warranty Coverage Details

What the Warranty Covers

The standard warranty policy is designed to protect you against issues related to craftsmanship and manufacturing defects. This includes:

  • Problems caused by faulty materials
  • Issues resulting from errors in workmanship

What the Warranty Does Not Cover

Flat tire punctures, including those caused by nails, sharp objects, or other road hazards, are not covered under the normal warranty policy.

⚠️ Note: Flat tire punctures are considered unpredictable events and are treated as normal wear and tear or accidental damage, not as a result of a manufacturing or craftsmanship defect.

Why Flat Tire Punctures Are Excluded

  • Flat tire punctures can happen at any time and are usually caused by external factors beyond the manufacturer's control.
  • The warranty explicitly states that only craftsmanship-related issues are covered.
  • Since a flat tire is not due to a workmanship or material defect, it falls outside the warranty’s scope.

What To Do If You Have a Flat Tire

If you experience a flat tire due to a puncture:

  • Arrange for repair or replacement at your own expense.
  • Check if you have an Extended warranty protection plan that might cover punctures.
  • Review our warranty policy for complete details about coverage and exclusions.

💡 Tip: Consider purchasing a dedicated tire protection plan if you want coverage for punctures and other accidental damage.

Additional Information

A flat tire from a puncture is a common occurrence and is not considered a defect in the product. The warranty is intended to cover only issues that result from the way the product was made, not from external or accidental damage.
