Yokohama Tire Corporation has notified the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is voluntarily recalling 610 GEOLANDAR M/T G003 light truck tires. The recall covers two sizes in that line: LT245/75R16 120/116Q and LT285/70R17 121/118Q.
According to the company, the affected tires were manufactured at Yokohama’s Mie Plant in Japan between May 31, 2026, and June 6, 2026. The notice states that 610 tires are believed to be affected and links the action to that production period and the two listed sizes.
Yokohama initiated the recall in accordance with NHTSA regulations. It says the tires may have been manufactured with an improper compound in the sidewall. Reduced adhesion could lead to carcass-ply separation, air leakage or rapid air loss.
A loss of inflation pressure can make a vehicle more difficult to control and increase the risk of a crash, the company notes. The recall notice describes these as potential consequences of the sidewall condition rather than confirmed failures in every tire. It does not state that any such failures have been confirmed; it frames them as possible outcomes of the manufacturing condition.
Owners seeking information can contact Yokohama customer service at 1-800-722-9888 or [email protected]. The voluntary action is limited in the notice to the specified GEOLANDAR M/T G003 sizes and production window.
