Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations LLC "Bridgestone" is recalling certain Firestone HP3000 315/80R22.5 18 ply tires manufactured January 2012 through August 2013 and sold to customers in Guam. The affected tires may lose pressure from a crack at the inner liner splice. Such a crack could penetrate into the sidewall, resulting in a bulge on the sidewall.
A sidewall bulge may result in a tire deflation and subsequent tire failure which increases the risk of a crash.
The recall began January 21, 2014. Owners may contact Bridgestone at 1-617-633-3026.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
