What this means for you
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: This is a vehicle tire defect that violates federal safety standards (FMVSS 119) and directly causes loss of tire pressure, increasing crash risk. However, the source does not report any actual injuries, deaths, or property damage from this defect, placing it in the High category as a risk-of-harm product without reported incident.
