Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
0
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

THE 1ST TIRE FAILED (EXPLODED) IN AUGUST 7, 2000, THE 2ND TIRE 7/20/01 & THE 3RD WAS ON 7/21/01. THESE TIRES WERE ON OUR BOAT TRAILER WHEN WE BOUGHT IT IN MARCH, 2000. THE PREVIOUS OWNERS PURCHASED THE BOAT/TRAILER PACKAGE NEW IN THE SUMMER OF 1999 AND THESE WERE THE ORIGINAL TIRES. ALL 3 OF THEM HAD LESS THAN 2,000 MILES ON THEM AT THE TIME THEY FAILED. IN ALL 3 INSTANCES THE SIDE OF THE TIRE "EXPLODED" AND YOU COULD SEE THE BELT (VERY FRAYED) STICKING OUT OF THE LARGE HOLE. FORTUNATELY THIS IS A DOUBLE AXEL TRAILER AND WAS CONTROLABLE AT THE TIME OF THE BLOW OUT. IF IT HAD BEEN A SINGLE AXEL TRAILER, I PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE HERE TO REPORT THIS. I FEEL THAT THESE TIRES POSE A SAFETY HAZARD AND WOULD LIKE THIS MATTER TO BE INVESTIGATED. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.*AK (TIRESIZE: ST205/75R1)
