TIRES:MARKINGS
Issued by Yokohama Off-Highway Tires America, Inc · Reported Oct 28, 2022 · 119 vehicles affected
What's wrong
Yokohama Off-Highway Tires America, Inc (YOHTA) is recalling certain Alliance High Speed Rib Implement Tire 12.5L-15 FI, 11L-15FI, Primex Highway R-550 Steer and Trailer 11-22.5, Alliance 317 Implement 10.5-20 IMP, and Alliance Stubble Proof 319 SPH 11L-15FI tires. The date code portion of the Tire Identification Number (TIN) states the incorrect manufacture date on the sidewall of the tire. As such, these tires fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 119, "New Pneumatic Tires, Other than Passenger Cars."
Consequence
The incorrect date code hinders drivers from accurately identifying the age of the tire and makes it difficult to determine if the tire is affected by a safety recall, which can increase the risk of a crash.
Remedy
YOHTA will replace the affected tires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 1, 2023. Owners may contact YOHTA's customer service at 1-800-343-3276.
