Both Technician A and Technician B are correct in their statements.
Technician A is correct in stating that tires older than 6 years should be inspected by a qualified technician, even if there is no obvious damage. This is because tires degrade over time, and the integrity of the tire may be compromised, leading to potential safety issues. Regular inspection of older tires is important to ensure their continued performance and safety.
Technician B is also correct in stating that the DOT certification label may be required for warranty purposes. The DOT certification label is a mark that indicates that the tire meets certain safety standards set by the Department of Transportation. Some tire manufacturers require the presence of the DOT certification label in order to honor warranty claims. It is important to check the specific warranty terms and conditions to understand whether the label is required.
