"Goodyear to replace defective truck tires
NEW YORK - Goodyear recalled six versions of its Wrangler Silent Armor tires over concerns the tread could separate from the tire and cause accidents. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. said yesterday the separation could occur under what it called severe usage conditions. Goodyear said the separated tread could strike the car and damage it or result in tire failure. The recall affects about 40,000 tires made in 2009, including 27,000 in service. The recalled tires will be replaced with new ones. The tires are designed for trucks, vans, and SUVs. Goodyear will notify owners and replace the tires for free. The recall will start by March 22."
