I do not believe the warranty will cover tires . The best fix is a patch/plug .( patch plug all in one ) . Do note that the tire will no longer be speed rated . The best fix if you are planning on setting any land speed records is a new tire . If it were mine ,and a repairable puncture , I would get that fix .

They usually try to peddle you a tire and wheel warranty at the dealer when you buy a new car. Bumper to bumper warranties don’t cover wear items like tires, brakes and windshield wiper blades. Interesting Ms ... I did a short financing situation where they doubled the b2b ... I’ll have to check. But my FIRST AND ONLY dealership experience was not very positive

A repair is only as good as the materials and workmanship . A patch is considered better than a plug, but leaves the hole open , and moisture can get in between the plies and cause separations and problems over time, also you get get problems with separation with plugs . Popping out is just a bad job , and has been known to happen . A patch plug will seal the liner from the inside , and fill the hole to keep moisture out .

We bought the Mopar extended warranties on the last 4 vehicles we owned. I've had wheel bearings, intake manifold, radiator, rear hatch motor, starter, and a few other things replaced under the warranties. $100 deductible. Can't buy the parts for that price. As far as the tires, they are not covered. However, I have bought several tires at Discount Tire over the years and they patched a hole the wife had in her tire once. It was the original tire and not bought from them. They did it at no cost.
