I EXPERIENCED TWO TREAD SEPARATIONS ON TOW MAX STR TRAILER TIRES, ST235 80R16 LOAD RANGE E. ONE FAILURE OCCURRED FIVE MINUTES AFTER ENTERING THE FREEWAY ON THE LEFT FORWARD TIRE. THIS TIRE WAS REMOVED AND THE SPARE WAS INSTALLED. APPROXIMATELY TWO HOURS ALTER AND 110 MILES DOWN THE ROAD I EXPERIENCED A VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL TREAD SEPARATION FAILURE ON THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. ALL TIRES ON THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN VISUALLY INSPECTED THAT MORNING AND SHOWED NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF DISTRESS, TIRE PRESSURE WAS VERIFIED COLD WITH A TIRE PRESSURE GATE TO BE 80 PSI. AFTER THE FIRST FAILURE THE REMAINING THREE TIRES WERE EXAMINED AND PRESSURE WAS VERIFIED, AT THIS TIME THE REMAINING TIRES ALSO SHOWED NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF DISTRESS. BOTH TREAD SEPARATIONS CAUSED EXTENSIVE VEHICLE DAMAGE. BOTH FAILURES OCCURRED WITH NO PRIOR WARNING OF AN ISSUE.

Heartland Recreational Vehicles, LLC (Heartland) is recalling certain trailers of various models and model years. Click on "All Products Associated With This Recall" for a complete list. The tire certification labels applied to the vehicles may contain inaccurate tire sizing and/or inflation information. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: An owner or operator could rely on the inaccurate information in inflating the tires which could cause under or over inflation which, in turn, could lead to a tire failure or crash.

Remedy: Heartland will notify owners, and dealers will send a replacement label with the correct information, free of charge. The recall began on September 29, 2015. Owners may contact Heartland customer service at 1-574-266-3988.
