Update: Cooper Tires Recalled for Sidewall Separation Defect, Crash Risk

Cooper Tire is recalling certain Discoverer, Evolution, Courser, Deegan, Adventurer, Hercules, Back Country, Multi-Mile Wild Country and Big O brand tires which may develop a bulge or separation in the sidewall. "A sidewall separation may cause the tire to rapidly deflate, increasing the risk of a crash," NHTSA said. Cooper Tire is notifying owners and dealers will replace the affected tires, free of charge. This recall began on March 25, 2021.

What's the Problem?

Cooper Tires affected by the recall include:

  • Cooper Evolution Tour
  • Mastercraft SRT Touring
  • Hercules Roadtour 455 Sport
  • Starfire Solarus AS
  • Mastercraft Stratus AS tires

All recalled tires are size 225/50R17 and feature the DOT date code 3019, NHTSA said.

The affected tires were manucatured with an improper sidewall component, which may cause tire deflation and tread separation, increasing the risk of crash.

If you purchased any of the recalled tires, you should contact your dealer for free replacement tires. Cooper Tires is notifying all registered owners by mail.

Cooper Tires Grand Touring Recall

Cooper is recalling CS5 Grand Touring 225/55R17 and Mastercraft LSR Grand Touring 225/55R17 tires with DOT codes 2920 through 3220. The recalled tires may have low tread gauge in the shoulder slot area which could cause tread separation and tire failure, according to the NHTSA. A sidewall failure may cause the tire to rapidly deflate, increasing the risk of a crash. This recall began on September 23, 2020.
