Continental Tire the Americas, LLC has decided to voluntarily initiate a safety-related recall of the following commercial vehicle tires:
Article Number | Name | Load Range | Size | DOT Codes / TIN |
05110750000 | Conti Coach HA3 | L | 315/80R22.5 | A372 KWUU 3517 through 1618* |
*To verify the full list of affected DOT codes, please see Appendix A.
Tires from four production weeks were identified with issues, but in an abundance of caution, Continental is recalling all potentially affected tires from the start of production. The tires were identified as having a potential issue which could cause loss of internal pressure through the sidewall resulting in slow or rapid deflation. Since the safety of our customers is paramount at Continental, we have decided to voluntarily issue a safety recall for these tires. No personal injuries or accidents have been reported.
The last four digits of the DOT serial numbers indicate the production period (week/year). The DOT Codes listed in the table above are covered by this exchange program. No other tire sizes, production periods or product lines are affected.
Safety Warning: We strongly encourage owners of potentially affected tires to remove the tires from service immediately. Replacement tires and the cost for dismounting, mounting, and balancing will be covered by the exchange program at no cost to the customer. |
Locating the DOT Code: The DOT code or Tire Identification Number (TIN) is printed on the tire sidewall on one side of the tire. For example:
