Marangoni, Kwik-Fit offer free tyre damage insurance to UK drivers

ERJ staff report (DS)

London -- UK tyre retailer Kwik Fit has teamed up with Marangoni to offer peace of mind to motorists concerned about punctures or other damage to their tyres.

Britain's biggest tyre retailer has linked with Italian manufacturer Marangoni to bring a unique double offer for peace of mind motoring. All Marangoni tyres sold at Kwik Fit come with both free puncture repair and free road hazard guarantee. With this guarantee, any repairable punctures are free, including re-balancing, valves and nitrogen refill and any Marangoni tyre suffering accidental damage can be replaced free of charge. The amount payable reduces after 3 months and no payout will be made after 12 months, to take account of tyre wear.

David White, customer services director at Kwik-Fit says: “Our research shows just how many drivers are inconvenienced by punctures or tyre damage every year. Fortunately, in many instances these don't require a new tyre but can be simply and quickly repaired. However, even if drivers do need a new tyre, with our new Marangoni range they will be covered by the road hazard guarantee - so whether it's a pothole blow out or a slow puncture from a small nail, they can save additional cost.”
