Tire failure - Report to NHTSA & Safety recalls

Recommended Posts

Couple of related items.

When you buy new tires, either on a new coach or directly from a tire dealer. You need to complete a tire registration form and mail it off. If you don't do this you may not get notified if there is a recall on your tires.

Do you have defective tires? How would you know your tires should be recalled?

If you have a failure you should file a complaint with NHTSA (not NTSB who do trains & planes)). This agency of US DOT is the one responsible for investigating vehicle component failures and if the part is found defective then they can force the company to do a recall. BUT there will never be a reacll if there is no investigation and no investigation if no complaints are filed.

When to file a complaint with NHTSA
