ADDITIONAL PRODUCT SPECIFIC LIMITED WARRANTY CRITERIA
Wheels: The above warranty shall be void if the product is used with improper tire sizes, inflation pressures, or exceeded load
ratings. The above warranty shall be void if the product is not properly maintained in accordance with the Accuride Rim/Wheel
Safety & Service Manual. The above warranty also does not cover defects resulting from corrosion (except as noted above), other
non‐Accuride components, accident, excessive speed or other abnormal or severe operating conditions.
ACCU‐ARMOR® and ACCU‐SHIELD®: AWES does not cover the following conditions: (i) Any damage in the areas of the mounting
surfaces, such as the area under the mounting nuts, the area in contact with hubs or drums and the area in contact with other
wheels in dual position, (ii) Any damage due to cleaning, including damage from the use of abrasives, abrasive brushes, steel wool,
scouring pads or strong chemicals, and (iii) Any damage to the wheel finish due to removal, misuse, or chipping, whether by contact
with road obstacles such as stones, gravel, curbs, barriers, signs, or otherwise. ACCU‐SHIELD® products are not covered for
corrosion. AWES recommends cleaning wheels with mild soap and water.
Standard Brake Drums, Spoke Wheels, Disc Wheel Hubs, Automatic Slack Adjusters, and Hardware: The above warranty shall be
void if (i) any goods have exceeded AWES’ acceptable wear limits or have been subjected to accidents or abnormal conditions of use,
temperature, moisture, dirt or corrosive matter, or (ii) the product fails as the result of another manufacturer’s product. The TRU‐
SET™ disc wheel hub requires the use of a seller‐approved hubcap and lubricant.

REMEDIES AND LIMITATIONS OF REMEDIES
In the event of any material breach of the above limited warranties, AWES agrees to repair or replace, at its sole option, without
charge any and all of its warrantable product that fail during normal use and service due to defects in material and/or workmanship,
all subject to the original purchaser providing written notice of the alleged breach within 30 days of failure. Time is of the essence
herein, and original purchaser’s failure to provide written notice to AWES within the required time of any alleged breach of the
foregoing warranty will release and discharge AWES from any obligation or liability for that breach of warranty. In no event will
AWES be liable for any other costs associated with the replacement or repair of product covered under this warranty, including

replacement is a fulfillment of all AWES obligations. AWES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL
DAMAGES OF ANY KIND. FURTHER, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE SHALL AWES BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES BEYOND THE PRICE OF THE
GOODS PURCHASED BY THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, IN TORT OR UNDER ANY WARRANTY OR OTHER USE.
AWES reserves the right to request product return as a condition of reimbursement. Return expense may be paid by AWES or may
be reimbursed to the original purchaser if product is found to be warrantable. No goods are to be returned to AWES without a
Returned Goods Authorization (RGA). If AWES determines that any of the returned goods are non‐warrantable, AWES reserves the
right to charge the original purchaser for the recovery of all transportation costs and expenses incurred in examining, processing and
handling such goods. Any controversy or claim that customer may wish to bring that is arising out of or related to this limited
warranty or breach hereof must be commenced in writing within 30 days of notification of warrantable status.
Any product deemed non‐warrantable is the property of the original purchaser and can be returned to the original purchaser upon
its request and at its sole cost and expense. Should the non‐warrantable item(s) not be reclaimed, AWES will disposition the product
no sooner than 30 days after original purchaser notification has been made.
