Evergreen / Jinyu recall: Tires
What is wrong
Shandong Jinyu Industrial Co. LTD, (Shandong) is recalling certain Jinyu YS78 and Evergreen ES89 AT tires, size LT225/75R16, manufactured April 1, 2011, to August 31, 2014 (DOT date codes 1611 through 4314). The affected tires may not be able to properly dissipate heat, and as a result, the tire belts may separate.
What could happen
If the tire belts separate, the tire may suddenly lose air, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will cover the cost of replacement tire and mount the new tire(s) for free. The recall began on July 29, 2015. Owners may contact Shandong customer service at 1-786-521-1296.
