The contact owns a 2009 Cadillac Escalade EXT equipped with Michelin Tires, Tire Line: Energy Saver A/S, Tire Size: P265/65/R18, DOT Number: M3KA. The contact stated the tires contain a tire identification number (TIN) that is missing the 4-digit week and year code mark. As such, these tires fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 574, "Tire Identification & Recordkeeping." Missing TIN information can make it difficult for tire owners to determine the age of the tires and/or identify the tire in the event of a recall, increasing the risk of driving with unsafe tires which could result in a crash. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified the missing TIN information. The tires were not replaced purchased at the dealer on April 12, 2019. The tires were replacement tires. The tire failure mileage was 0. The vehicle failure mileage was approximately 93,345. The VIN was not available.
