Summary

Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations "BATO" is recalling certain R123 Ecopia tires, size 295/75R22.5, designed for use on commercial trailer vehicles.

As such, these tires fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 119, "New pneumatic tires - other than passenger cars."

Consequence

Incorrect belt orientation may cause the tires to fail and increase the risk of a crash.
