What's the Problem?
This recall affects BARUM BRAVURIS 3 HM/215/55 R 16 97H tires, according to the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
These tires were cured for too long during production, which could cause them to develop a break in the sidewall resulting in sudden air loss or a belt edge separation, leading to a tread/belt loss.
"Either condition can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash," NHTSA said.
Continental Tire is notifying owners that purchased the recalled Barum tires as replacement equipment. Vehicle manufacturers will conduct recalls for vehicles equipped with these tires at the time of purchase. The tires will be inspected to verify that they are affected, and will be replaced as necessary, free of charge.
This recall began on April 5, 2021.
