Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
Over cured tires may develop a break in the sidewall resulting in sudden air loss or a belt edge separation which could lead to a tread/belt loss. Either condition can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
