Goodyear has recalled tire models including the G159 RV tire, the Metro Miler G652 and the Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT. The hazards are tread separation, air loss and a missing date code, each raising crash risk.
The recalls are voluntary. The largest covers 173,237 G159 motorhome tires. The Cooper recall is completed, with its period ended November 30, 2025.
Look at the sidewall of your tire to see whether it is covered. Goodyear Consumer Relations can be reached at 1-800-321-2136. As of October 2026, no federal MDL names Goodyear tires.
Latest Goodyear Tire Recall Updates
October 14, 2025: Goodyear Amends the Metro Miler G652 Recall
Goodyear amended its report to NHTSA for recall 25T016, which now covers 1,960 Metro Miler G652 B305/85R22.5 tires. The Part 573 report 25T016 was submitted on October 14, 2025 [1].
The amendment adds DOT week 4224. Goodyear identified three returned tires from that week with the same liner condition on October 7, 2025. The recall remedy remains free replacement of the tires.
September 8, 2025: Metro Miler G652 Recall Is Reported
WBIW reported that Goodyear recalled certain Metro Miler G652 tires, size B305/85R22.5, under NHTSA recall 25T016 [2]. The recall offers free replacement of the tires.
Owner notification letters were expected to be mailed on or around September 22, 2025. The affected tires are load range J.
August 26, 2025: Goodyear Finds the Metro Miler Manufacturing Issue
Goodyear determined on August 26, 2025 that a manufacturing issue led to a liner gauge condition in some Metro Miler G652 tires from weeks 4024, 5024 and 5124, according to Goodyear’s chronology to NHTSA.
Goodyear first learned of the problem on August 6, 2025, when one customer reported seven tires disabled and losing pressure. It placed a quality hold on week 4024 tires on August 13, 2025.
May 23, 2025: Goodyear Files the Cooper Part 573 Report
Goodyear filed its Part 573 report for NHTSA recall 25T006 on May 23, 2025 [3]. The report covers 96 Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT LT275/65R18 tires.
The tires were made from February 2, 2025 to February 8, 2025. One tire mold had a blank date code slug installed, the report says.
April 28, 2025: Goodyear Announces the Cooper Discoverer Stronghold Recall
Goodyear issued Product Service Bulletin 2025-04 on April 28, 2025 [4]. It announced a voluntary recall of Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT LT275/65R18 Load Range E tires made in Texarkana, Texas.
The recall carries NHTSA number 25T006. The recall period ended November 30, 2025. Dealer claims were due by December 31, 2025.
April 19, 2024: Goodyear Reports the G622 RSD Recall
Goodyear filed NHTSA report 24T003 on April 19, 2024 [5]. It covers 82 Goodyear G622 RSD 225/70R19.5 tires made December 10, 2023 to December 16, 2023.
The tires were made without the required date code in the tire number. The filing is a voluntary safety recall. No injuries are stated.
January 26, 2023: Grand Jury Probe of Goodyear RV Tires Is Reported
CBS News and the Associated Press reported that a Los Angeles federal grand jury was gathering evidence in a criminal probe of Goodyear RV tires [6].
The tires at issue are the recalled Goodyear G159 tires. The grand jury subpoenaed Arizona lawyer David Kurtz for records of his lawsuit against Goodyear. It is not clear exactly what it is investigating.
June 7, 2022: NHTSA Posts the Goodyear G159 Recall
NHTSA posted Goodyear’s recall report 22T009 on June 7, 2022 [7]. The recall covers 173,237 Goodyear G159 275/70R22.5 tires made February 1, 1996 to January 31, 2003 and installed on motorhomes.
The report names The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company of Akron, Ohio as the maker. Its owner letter is dated June 7, 2022. The recall is voluntary, with free replacement of the tires.
Which Goodyear Tires Are Affected?
Four NHTSA recalls cover these Goodyear tires:
- Goodyear G159 275/70R22.5: 173,237 tires installed on motorhomes, with DOT codes MC6Y270W046, MC6Y2BEW046 and NB7T2T8W046, each through 0403
- Metro Miler G652 B305/85R22.5 LRJ: 1,960 tires with DOT weeks 4024, 4224, 5024 and 5124 (1MC7XAE0W)
- Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT LT275/65R18 LRE: 96 tires with DOT 1UTB9D11V and the week code missing
- Goodyear G622 RSD 225/70R19.5: 82 tires with DOT 1MJ9YWNAW and the week code missing
The tire identification number is the DOT code on the sidewall. Compare it with the codes above. Each recall covers only tires that match its listed size and code.
Why Were the Goodyear Tires Recalled?
Goodyear recalled the G159 275/70R22.5 because tires on motorhomes had tread separations when overloaded or underinflated. It recalled the Metro Miler G652 because a liner gauge condition can cause air loss.
The Cooper and G622 RSD tires were recalled because the required date code was missing from the tire number. The cause of the Metro Miler condition is still under investigation, and the tire is no longer in production.
NHTSA opened PE17-009 on December 28, 2017 after a litigant’s allegations. It asked for a G159 recall on February 22, 2022. Goodyear declined on March 8, 2022, then agreed. Goodyear says the G159 has no safety defect [8].
Reported Incidents, Injuries, or Illnesses
The U.S. government says G159 tires have killed or injured 95 people since 1998, according to a CBS report [9].
NHTSA wrote in February 2022 that the safety-related defect is “a clear, identified failure that leads to a loss of vehicle control.” Goodyear replied that it found no defect in any inspected tire.
Lawsuits and safety advocates allege the G159 tires were designed for delivery trucks, not for RVs that travel at highway speeds. They also allege Goodyear kept problems secret by settling cases and sealing records.
Goodyear is unaware of any warning occurring in returned Metro Miler tires. The Cooper and G622 RSD reports state no injuries. Reports are not proof that a tire caused every incident.
What Should Consumers Do?
Follow these steps if you own or drive on a recalled Goodyear tire:
- Check the tire size and the DOT code against the recall lists.
- For a G159 on a recreational vehicle, contact an authorized Goodyear Commercial Tire and Service Network dealer for a free G670 replacement. Goodyear pays for dismount, disposal, mounting and balancing, and offers a $60 weighing voucher [10].
- For a G159 not fitted to an RV, call 1-800-592-3267. The owner letter offers $500 for that tire.
- For a Metro Miler G652, Cooper or G622 RSD tire, wait for the owner letter. Then return the tires to the place of purchase or an authorized Goodyear dealer.
- If you already paid to replace a recalled tire, ask Goodyear Consumer Relations about reimbursement. The Metro Miler reimbursement period ended June 30, 2026, so ask whether a late claim is accepted.
- Call Goodyear Consumer Relations at 1-800-321-2136, the G159 dealer line at 1-866-353-3847, or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or safercar.gov.
Other Recalls, Warnings, or International Actions
Transport Canada lists the Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT recall as 2025-207. Neither the Cooper nor the G622 RSD recall involves tread separation.
Legal Options
Anyone hurt in a crash involving a recalled tire can ask a lawyer to review a claim. A recall does not by itself establish liability.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Many G159 Tires Had Goodyear Replaced by January 2023?
Goodyear had replaced only 13 G159 tires by January 13, 2023, according to CBS and AP reporting. That is a small share of the 173,237 G159 tires, which were made from 1996 to 2003 and installed on motorhomes.
What Share of Metro Miler G652 Tires May Have the Defect?
About 25% of the affected Metro Miler G652 tires may have the liner gauge condition, Goodyear estimated. The company halted production of the tire while it determines the root cause of the condition.
How Long Do I Have to File a Claim over a Recalled Goodyear Tire?
The time limit to file a claim over a recalled Goodyear tire comes from state law. It varies with where you live and when the crash or injury happened. A missed deadline can end a claim, so check promptly.
When Were Goodyear G622 RSD Owners Notified About the Recall?
Goodyear planned to notify G622 RSD owners from June 1 to June 15, 2024. In the affected tires, the curing press ID C13R sat in the tire number in place of the date code 5023.
