## What the record says

- **Product**: GENERAL TIRE ALTIMAX RT43 - Recall 23T001000
- **Reason**: Continental Tire the Americas, LLC (Continental Tire) is recalling certain General Altimax RT43, size 175/65R14 82T tires. The tires contain a tire identification number (TIN) that is missing the 3-digit plant code and the 6-symbol manufacturer's identification mark. As such, these tires fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 574, "Tire Identification & Recordkeeping." Missing TIN information can make it difficult for tire owners to identify the tire in the event of a recall, increasing the risk of driving with a recalled tire which could result in a crash.
- **Classification**: Not supplied
- **Recalling firm**: Continental Tire the Americas, LLC
- **Quantity**: 3
- **Agency-reported status**: Published safety recall
