Zeetex recall: Tires
What is wrong
PT. Elangperdana Tyre Industry (EP Tyre) is recalling certain Zeetex AT 1000 and 126/123R Zeetex AT1000 tires. Please see the recall report for a complete list of affected tire sizes and DOT date codes. The sidewall may prematurely separate near the bead area of the tire. As such, these tires fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 139, "New Pneumatic Radial Tires for Light Vehicles."
What could happen
A sidewall separation may cause a tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

EP Tyre will provide a refund to owners who purchased the affected tires. Owner notification letters were mailed September 12, 2022. Owners may contact EP Tyre's customer service at +62 (21) 876-5105.
