⚠️ What's wrong
Vehicle description: light duty pickup trucks equipped with dunlop tires, size LT215/85R16. These tires are experiencing deflation as a result of stress splits or cracks occurring from the point of attachment of the sidewall to the square bead wire bundle, with resulting damage to the tire ply.
💥 The risk
Tire deflation could occur in loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace these tires.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
