What was wrong
Defect
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company (Goodyear) is recalling certain Fortera HL P255/65R18 109S tires manufactured November 30, 2014, to January 10, 2015. The affected tires experienced cracking of the tread during tire endurance testing inspection. Thus, these tires fail to comply with requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 139, "New pneumatic radial tires for light vehicles."
Risk
If the tires experience tread cracking, it may result in a loss of tire pressure and possible tire failure, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Manufacturer remedy
Those tires installed as original equipment on certain 2015 Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, and GMC Acadia are being replaced free of charge by General Motors under safety recall 15V-044. GM will notify the affected vehicle owners. Replacement equipment tires are being replaced free of charged by Goodyear. Goodyear will notify all owners for which it has registration information. The recall began February 26, 2014. GM vehicle owners may contact GM at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 15025/15067. Owners of replacement equipment tires may contact Goodyear at 1-800-592-3267.
