NHTSA recall campaign
13T011000
What was wrong
Defect
Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations LLC (Bridgestone) is recalling certain Firestone HP3000 315/80R22.5 18 ply tires manufactured January 2012 through August 2013 and sold to customers in Guam. The affected tires may lose pressure from a crack at the inner liner splice. Such a crack could penetrate into the sidewall, resulting in a bulge on the sidewall.
Risk
A sidewall bulge may result in a tire deflation and subsequent tire failure which increases the risk of a crash.
Manufacturer remedy
The recall began January 21, 2014. Owners may contact Bridgestone at 1-617-633-3026.
