Yokohama Tire Corporation has notified 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, which Yokohama says were manufactured at its Mie Plant in Japan between May 31 and June 6, 2026.
The action was initiated in accordance with NHTSA regulations. 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, according to the company.
Loss of inflation pressure can reduce vehicle control and increase crash risk, particularly if air escapes rapidly. The notice identifies the affected tires by size and production period and states that 610 GEOLANDAR M/T G003 tires are believed to be affected.
Yokohama is directing customers with questions or in need of assistance to its customer service team. Owners can call 1-800-722-9888, send email to [email protected] or visit the owners section of the company’s website.
The recall is voluntary and was reported to NHTSA. The information provided does not specify a remedy schedule or the number of vehicles that may have been equipped with the affected tires. Owners should use the company’s recall contact channels for assistance.
