The tires supplied with your vehicle are covered by General Motors against defects in material or workmanship under the bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage. Wear-out is not considered a defect, and it may occur before the vehicle warranty expires. In this case, the owner is responsible to purchase replacement tires, or seek coverage solely from the tire manufacturer. For vehicles within the bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage, defective tires will be replaced on a prorated adjustment basis according to the following mileage-based schedule:

Mileage Replacement Percentage Covered by GM

0-12,000 100%

12,001-36,000 Sliding scale starting at 67% at 12,001, proportionately falling (1.96%/1,000 miles) to 20% at 36,000 miles

36,001-50,000 20% (Buick and Cadillac Only)


36,001+ 0% (Chevrolet and GMC Only)


50,001+ 0% (Buick and Cadillac Only)

Awesome. That makes me feel a little better. Going to get it checked out in the morning.

Very strange. Very slow leak, only seems to come down when the car is stationary. Only lost 2 PSI over a 400 miles trip back to PA. Drops dramatically overnight.
