Tire recall

Check your tires!

I certainly will. Thanks.

Does Ram document the tires’ codes used on each truck and can cross reference to affected VINs?

I am sure they do, Ford did the same thing with the Explorer tire recall back in 2000-2001

Check your tires!

the code listed seems to be only for tires made in week 18 of year 2021.
That is beginning of May 2021.
Needless to say that when you bought your truck earlier than that and you have still the 1st set of tires, your vehicle is not affected.

I doubt many still have them as they wear out so fast hell i got 3 month for 1/2 tread

Wait some of you guys still run the starter trial pack tires?

Useless recall. Let’s put the same crap tire on. Ignore the recall and just upgrade instead

Here a few stats:
Firestone Transforce HT
Miles 12,800 as of 02-06-22
Starting tread depth per Firestone transforce HT manufacturer info 11.9mm
Front tire tread depth 9.5mm (80%)
Rear tire tread depth 7.5mm (63%)

Never rotated the tires, 60psi cold, about 60% trailer towing 5-8klbs, 9x8.5ft frontal trailer area.
We just crossed the rocky mountains, CO in a snow storm towing a 28ft travel trailer, constant winter driving here in MN, no problem.
I wish the tires would not wear that quick but I am not willing to spend money on new tires just because the Firestone HT are not as good as Michelin.
