Component:

Manufactured:
01/31/2004 - 01/20/2006
Affected:
104
Defect:
Certain pro competition pro comp xtreme a/t tires, size 38.5x14.50r20lt, manufactured between february 1, 2004, and january 21, 2006. these tires may not have adequate rubber coverage of the belt edge due to low tread gauge in the shoulder slot area of the tire. when this condition exists, it may eventually cause cracking at the base of the shoulder slots resulting in exposed belt wire which could lead to accelerated belt degradation, which could result in a separation. if the separation is not detected, continued use may cause the ply cords to break and the tubeless liner to tear and lose the inflating air.
Consequence:
Loss of air may cause the driver to lose steering control, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
Correction:
Pro competition will notify owners and replace the tires free of charge. the recall is expected to begin during march 2006. owners may contact pro competition at 866-232-0665.
