With the festive season just around the corner, many holidaymakers are expected to use SA roads to get to various destinations. When you are in the market for buying new tyres, do you ever think to check the expiry date?
Tyres do, in fact, have a five-year warranty expiry date, but most vehicle owners probably don’t know this fact and wouldn’t even consider it to be an issue, says Vishal Premlall, national director of the Tyres Equipment Parts Association .
If you can’t resolve the issue, the next step is to approach the Retail Motor Industry or Tepa for assistance. He advises that the evidence needed is the dated invoice of the sale of the tyre and the tyre manufacturing-date code. They need to bear in mind that without adequate quality control, the tyre may be unsafe to use. Then, in addition, the running-cost calculation of second-hand tyres usually works out to be more expensive than new tyres.
