Issue

Certain tires may have been produced with an insufficient tire liner gauge thickness which could cause internal voids to develop in the tire, possibly resulting in sidewall failure and rapid air loss. This could cause the driver to lose vehicle control, which may result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Retailers will replace affected tires.
