NHTSA recall campaign
14T016000
What was wrong
Defect
China Manufacturers Alliance, LLC (CMA) is recalling certain Bluestar LQ225 size 8-14.5 low platform trailer tires manufactured February 24, 2013, to August 9, 2014. The affected tires can develop a sidewall blister on the upper section of the sidewall. This blister may pop while the vehicle is in operation. Thus, these tires fail to conform to the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No. 119, "New Pneumatic Tires for Vehicles Other Than Passenger Cars."
Risk
If the sidewall blister pops, rapid air pressure loss could cause loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Manufacturer remedy
CMA will notify owners, and distributors to send the tires back for full reimbursement, free of charge. The recall began December 12, 2014. Owners may contact CMA customer service at 1-626-301-9575.
