Whether you need actual paperwork or not that is what I was told by friends, the warranty paperwork did state that I needed to provide it, as does the link from the Michelin site. I thought it also had to be an authorized Michelin service provider but it looks like it may have been removed. My problem, I rotated my own tires and they never had vibrations and all four wore perfectly even, just too quick.

TEADWEAR

2.)The tires have been rotated and inspected every 6,000-8,000
miles (10,000-12,000 km), or as specified by your vehicle manufacturer,
whichever rotation period is less, and the attached Mounting and Rotation
Service Record has been fully completed and signed.
3.)The completed Service Record form, Original Owner/Tire
Installation Information form, and the original Invoice are presented to a
participating Michelin tire retailer at the time of adjustment claim, and


HOW DO I GET A REPLACEMENT?

7.For treadwear replacement claims, documents showing that your tires
have been rotated and inspected every 6,000-8,000 miles (10,00
0-12,000 km) or as specified by your vehicle manufacturer, whichever
rotation period is less, and the attached Mounting and Rotation Service
Record has been fully completed and signed

You just have to find a dealer willing to do the paperwork, but since you already bought a new set of tires it is going to be hard. Michelin gives dealers a credit on account for the pro rated amount, dealers will apply that to a new set of tires, very few if any will turn that into actual cash for you.

I have the Michelins on my 2011 F-250 diesel, 275 60 20 LTX AT2. I have 62000 on them but they are done. Rotated 2 times. They have been great for me.

I am not looking to do anything now since this is all water under the bridge. I have a close relationship with the dealership's service and parts departments as well as the tire shop that also sells Michelins and neither of them said they could do anything without paperwork. I never expected cash, just pro-rated towards a new set, I guess they didn't want to do paperwork.

We must drive our trucks a little differently.
