What This Recall Means

Component

TIRES:TREAD/BELT

What Happened
Your vehicle's tires may have Firestone Wilderness AT or Radial ATX/Radial ATX II tires, size P235/75R15, made in Decatur, Illinois. These tires can separate from the tread if driven at low pressure, high speed, and in hot weather.
Risk if Unfixed
If the tire tread separates, you could lose control of your vehicle, leading to a crash that could cause injury or death.

Is YOUR vehicle affected?

This page lists the models and model years named in NHTSA campaign #00T005000. Matching a model and year on this list does not prove an individual vehicle is affected — some vehicles in an affected model year are never part of the recall population. The authoritative way to know is a VIN check against NHTSA's own records.
