What's wrong
Continental Tire the Americas, LLC (CTA) is recalling certain General Tire Altimax RT45 tires, size 235/60R18. The tires may have been overcured during manufacturing.
Why it matters
Overcured tires may experience tread separation or break at the sidewall, causing a sudden loss of air and increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will replace tires, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 25, 2025. Owners may contact CTA customer service at 1-888-799-2168.
