BFGoodrich recalling commercial tires

Updated Aug 11, 2015

BFGoodrich Monday announced it is recalling approximately 129,000 tires that were sold in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. The company says more 80 percent of the affected tires were sold in the U.S.

This recall, which has been reported to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), includes eight specific commercial light truck tire sizes that were produced under the following three product names: BFGoodrich Commercial T/A All-Season, BFGoodrich Commercial T/A All-Season 2 and BFGoodrich Rugged Terrain T/A.

BFGoodrich has observed that a limited number of these tires experienced a rapid loss of air pressure due to a rupture of the sidewall in the bead area under severe usage conditions. This can result in a potential risk of loss of vehicle control or vehicle crash. At this time, there have been no injuries or fatalities reported.
