"The recall, initiated in accordance with NHTSA regulations, was issued because the tires may have been manufactured with an improper compound in the sidewall," say Yokohama officials. "Reduced adhesion may cause carcass-ply separation, air leakage or rapid air loss. Loss of inflation pressure can reduce vehicle control and increase crash risk."

The company says those with questions or those who need assistance should contact Yokohama customer service by calling 1-800-722-9888, emailing [email protected] or visiting https://www.yokohamatire.com/owners-circle/recalls.
