What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a structural vehicle defect (tread separation) that increases the risk of a crash, but the source text does not report any deaths or serious injuries, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
