Yokohama Tire Corporation has notified NHTSA it is voluntarily recalling nineteen sizes of commercial tires that were manufactured at Yokohama’s plant in West Point, Mississippi between January 12, 2020 and February 15, 2020. A total of 3154 tires are being recalled.
The recall, initiated in accordance with NHTSA regulations, was issued because the tires may have been manufactured with an out-of-specification compound. There is a possible risk of tire damage due to material detachment inside the tire. This could lead to a tire disablement and an increased risk of loss of vehicle control.
