Tires
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Certain cooper weather-master s/t2 tires, size 215/65r16, manufactured between april 24 and may 28, 2005. These tires were produced with an improper stud pin hole due to the mold stud pin insert working loose.

Tire description: super road service 8x19.5 bias, tubeless, load range d tires. Serial nos. Up12bex188 and up12bex198. These tires were improperly manufactured resulting in a tire separation.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
If a separation is not detected, continued use can cause the ply cords to break and the tubeless liner to tear losing the inflated air. Loss of air could result in a loss of control with the potential for a vehicle crash.
Remedy, in the NHTSA record
Dealers will replace these tires.

Tires / Sidewall
Defect, in the NHTSA record
Tire description: cooper lifeliner grand classic ste p235/60r16 (serial no. 3d14c1b497, manufactured december 7 through december 13, 1997); and mastercraft mark vii p235/60r16 (serial no. 3d14feu497, manufactured december 7 through december 13, 1997). These tires may not have adequate rubber coverage of the belt edge due to wide belt endings. The belt wires eventually cause cracking resulting in exposed belts.
Consequence, in the NHTSA record
