What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This recall addresses a structural vehicle defect (tire belt separation) with potential to cause serious harm including loss of vehicle control and crash risk. However, no injuries or deaths have been reported in the source text, and the hazard remains theoretical. Per the rubric, where no illnesses/injuries are reported and the hazard is theoretical, the score is at most 3.
