Home › Cars & vehicles › Michelin North America, Inc. — Missing DOT…
Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
Tires that are missing a DOT symbol may be used in inappropriate applications, increasing the risk of a crash.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
Michelin will inspect and replace the tires, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 26, 2026. Owners may contact Michelin's customer service at 1-888-971-3801.
