TIRES:TREAD/BELT

Issued by BRIDGESTONE/FIRESTONE NORTH AMERICA TIRE · Reported May 31, 2006 · 10 vehicles affected

What's wrong

CERTAIN FIRESTONE DESTINATION A/T P265/75R16 PASSENGER TIRES MANUFACTURED BETWEEN JANUARY 29 AND FEBRUARY 4, 2006. DUE TO AN IMPROPER MACHINE SETUP, THE TIRES MAY HAVE BEEN PRODUCED WITH A DAMAGED INNERLINER WHICH COULD RESULT IN A SMALL AREA ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE TO HAVE NO INNERLINER COVERAGE.

Consequence

TIRES BUILT UNDER SUCH CONDITIONS MAY EXPERIENCE AIR PERMEATION INTO THE BODY OF THE TIRE. OVER TIME, THIS MAY LEAD TO TREAD SEPARATION AND AIR LOSS, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy

FIRESTONE WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND REPLACE THE TIRES FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING JUNE 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FIRESTONE AT 1-800-367-3872.
