Rather than fight a defect final decision by nhtsa, bridgestone/firstone has agreed to recall some 768,000 Wilderness AT tires made PRIOR to may 1998......... in exchange for nhtsa closing the investigation. sizes: p235/75r15 and p255/70r16.
folks..dont hesitate to get these tires replaced.. even if you think they are fine. 203 deaths and 700 injuries are nothing to ignore. that number.. 768,000..is what B/F estimates is STILL on the road right now!
check the DOT code on the sidewall, if it ends in 4,5,6, or 7.. you are the target. in addition, these tires with the last three digits of the dot code numbers are also affected: 018 through 188.
