Safety Recall: 2022 Odyssey Bridgestone Tire Inspection
AFFECTED VEHICLES
Year | Model | Trim | VIN Range |
2022 | Odyssey | ALL | Check the iN VIN status for eligibility |
BACKGROUND
An electrical short occurred during the DOT label laser etching process, potentially causing the laser to burn a pinhole through the tire sidewall. Should the pinhole penetrate the tire’s inner liner, a slow air loss may occur. If left
unaddressed, this slow leak could affect tire performance and, depending upon other circumstances, increase the risk of a crash.
CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
Owners of affected vehicles will be sent a notification of this campaign.
Do an iN VIN status inquiry to make sure the vehicle is shown as eligible.
Some vehicles affected by this campaign may be in your new or used vehicle inventory.
Failure to repair a vehicle subject to a recall or campaign may subject your dealership to claims or lawsuits from the customer or anyone else harmed as a result of such failure. To see if a vehicle in inventory is affected by this safety recall, do a VIN status inquiry before selling it.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Inspect the DOT date code number for blemishes or marks on all 4 tires. Then, replace the tire(s) if needed.
