Goodyear Cooper tires’ recalled for incorrect tire identification number

Akron, OH – Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is recalling certain Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT tires, size LT275/65R18. The tire identification number is missing the 4-digit week and year code mark. As such, these tires fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Number 574, “Tire Identification & Recordkeeping.” The inability to determine the production date of a tire can result in prolonged usage of a tire that should be replaced or unknowingly using a tire that has been recalled. Both situations increase the risk of a crash.

This recall potentially affects 170 vehicles. Dealers will replace the tires. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed May 31. Owners may contact Goodyear customer service at 800-592-3267.
