OFFICIAL NHTSA RECALL

14T016000

Tires:sidewall

Reported Nov 19, 2014 · China Manufacturers Alliance, LLC

Summary

China Manufacturers Alliance, LLC (CMA) is recalling certain Bluestar LQ225 size 8-14.5 low platform trailer tires manufactured February 24, 2013, to August 9, 2014. The affected tires can develop a sidewall blister on the upper section of the sidewall. This blister may pop while the vehicle is in operation. Thus, these tires fail to conform to the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No. 119, "New Pneumatic Tires for Vehicles Other Than Passenger Cars."

Consequence

If the sidewall blister pops, rapid air pressure loss could cause loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy

CMA will notify owners, and distributors to send the tires back for full reimbursement, free of charge. The recall began December 12, 2014. Owners may contact CMA customer service at 1-626-301-9575.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
