My Continental tires cracked at 10k km, how can I claim the warranty?

When Continental tires crack prematurely at 10,000 km, the most effective approach is to file a warranty claim with clear evidence through the proper channels. Here are practical steps:

• Photos and video of the damage: document the tire cracks from multiple angles, including the DOT number (manufacturing code on the sidewall).

• Proof of purchase: keep the invoice or receipt showing the purchase date and exact model. The warranty usually covers manufacturing defects for several years or up to a mileage limit.

• Official point of sale: go to the shop, dealer, or workshop where you bought them. Ask to open a warranty case and request written proof of your claim.

• Authorized distributor: if you didn’t buy from an official point of sale, locate a distributor at https://www.continental-tires.com/car → Dealer Locator.

👉 Register your case on Xolvie, where your experience will be documented and you can get additional support until Continental honors the warranty or compensates you.
