Yokohama Tire Corporation has notified the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is voluntarily recalling 610 GEOLANDAR M/T G003 light truck tires in two sizes, according to a company notice issued from Santa Ana, California.
The recall covers the LT245/75R16 120/116Q and LT285/70R17 121/118Q sizes, which were produced at Yokohama's Mie Plant in Japan between May 31, 2026, and June 6, 2026. Yokohama estimates that 610 tires from that production window are affected.
Reason for the action
According to the company, the tires may have been manufactured with an improper compound in the sidewall. Reduced adhesion from that condition may cause carcass-ply separation, air leakage or rapid air loss. A tire that loses inflation pressure can reduce vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.
The notice identifies the affected units by size and production period, tying the recall to a six-day manufacturing window at the Mie plant rather than to the GEOLANDAR M/T G003 line as a whole.
Yokohama said the recall was initiated in accordance with NHTSA regulations.
