Yokohama Tire Corporation has notified the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that it is voluntarily recalling 610 GEOLANDAR M/T G003 light truck tires in two sizes.
The recall covers the LT245/75R16 120/116Q and LT285/70R17 121/118Q sizes. According to the company, the tires were built at Yokohama's Mie Plant in Japan between May 31 and June 6, 2026, and 610 units from that production window are believed to be affected.
Sidewall compound cited
Yokohama said the tires may have been manufactured with an improper compound in the sidewall. Reduced adhesion may cause carcass-ply separation, air leakage or rapid air loss, and a loss of inflation pressure can reduce vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash.
The action was initiated in accordance with NHTSA regulations, the company said. The notice identifies the affected tires by size and by the Mie Plant production period.
The GEOLANDAR M/T G003 is a light truck tire line, and the notice covers 610 units across the two listed sizes.
Owner contact
Owners seeking information or assistance can reach Yokohama customer service by telephone at 1-800-722-9888 or by email at [email protected], or through the recalls section of the company's website.
The recall is limited to the two sizes and the production dates named in the notice; other products in the GEOLANDAR M/T G003 line are not listed.
