Issue

In certain tires, irregularities in the manufacturing process may lead to cracking of the inner liner, which could result in a sidewall bulge. Continued operation in this state could result in a slow inflation pressure leak, which could affect vehicle handling and increase the risk of tire failure. This could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Retailers will replace affected tires.
