How do I know if a tire recall applies to my vehicle?

In New Hampshire, there is a Tire Failure Law that requires tire manufacturers to notify vehicle owners when there is a tire recall. In order to know if a tire recall applies to your vehicle, you need to check with the tire manufacturer. Many manufacturers post their recalls online on their websites and also notify vehicle owners by sending a notification in the mail. When a tire recall is issued, the manufacturer is required to provide details on the recalling tire model, its date of production, its size and the defect that caused the recall. Knowing this information can help you figure out if a tire recall applies to your vehicle. You can then take this information and contact the tire manufacturer to check if the recalled tire matches the tire on your vehicle. In addition, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) also provides a publicly searchable database of tire recalls. You can visit NHTSA’s website to search for tire recalls, using the tire’s model number and other information, to find out if a tire recall applies to your vehicle. It is important to keep a watchful eye for tire recalls that could affect your vehicle, as recalled tires can present a safety hazard and may lead to tire failure. Taking the time to check for tire recalls can help you keep yourself and your passengers safe.
