What was wrong

Defect

Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. (Sumitomo) is recalling certain Dunlop GPR-300F tires, size 110/70R17M/C 54H. The tires may have a defect that causes inner liner bulging and looseness at the tire breaker edge. As such, these tires fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 119, "New Pneumatic Tires- Other than Passenger Cars."

Risk

A defective tire may experience a sudden loss of air pressure and cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Dealers will replace the affected tires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on April 14, 2025. Owners may contact Sumitomo customer service at 1-800-845-8378.
