Pirelli Cinturato P7: Tires recall

What's wrong

Pirelli Tire, LLC (Pirelli) is recalling certain P7 Cinturato tires, size 245/45R18 100 Y. The tires were incorrectly marked with the wrong maximum inflation pressure and may not meet the strength requirements for the stated pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 139, "New Pneumatic Radial Tires for Light Vehicles."

Why it matters

Tires with insufficient strength may fail, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the tires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 14, 2025. Owners may contact Pirelli customer service at 1-800-622-2390.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to nhtsa.gov.
