What’s wrong with it?

VISUAL DETERMINATION AS TO WHEN TO REPLACE WOULD BE MORE DIFFICULT AND TIRES DO NOT CONFORM TO FMVSS 119.

TIRES DO NOT HAVE TREADWEAR INDICATOR MOLDED IN THE TIRE TO ENABLE A PERSON TO VISUALLY DETERMINE WHEN TIRE IS WORN DOWN TO ONE-SIXTEENTH OF AN INCH AND MUST BE REPLACED.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Which tires, by their DOT codes: the range is in the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site, not in this file. Check the code on your tire’s sidewall against it.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
