FALKEN TIRE PHILIPPINES, through its exclusive distributor JM Far East, Inc., has rolled out a new warranty program to provide Falken users additional peace of mind. Road Hazard Ready (RHR) covers eligible passenger, SUV/4×4, and van/light truck tires purchased from April 20 onward for protection that “goes beyond the usual factory warranty.”

In a release, Falken Tire Philippines said that RHR is designed to cover “unrepairable damage caused by road hazards — the kind most drivers encounter sooner or later.” These include deep punctures that can no longer be repaired or vulcanized, cuts on the tread or sidewall that expose internal cords, impact damage from potholes and uneven pavement, sidewall damage from road contact, and run-flat damage (subject to inspection).

Falken will provide a one-to-one replacement “using the same tire or the closest available equivalent.” Coverage runs for 12 months from purchase, or until the tire reaches 5-mm tread depth, whichever comes first. The program applies to select Falken PLT tires that are brand-new and unused, distributed locally by JM Far East, and purchased through authorized dealers or official online stores. At least two tires of the same size and same vehicle application must be purchased in a single transaction. Eligible tire products include Sincera, Ziex, Azenis FK510 series, Azenis FK520L, Wildpeak, and Linam. Track-focused models like Azenis RT660 and RT615K+ are not part of the program.

To activate coverage, buyers need to register within seven days from date of purchase through the official RHR portal. For more information, visit https://www.jmfareastinc.com/product_cat/falken.
