Not notified by westlake tires of nhtsa recall on tires installed on my RV contact with westlake has been ignored by them. All 4 tires ST235/85R16 132 127 g were recalled. should tires come apart while in transit could cause extensive property damage and/or injury/death. Tires were inspected by service manager at dealership Horizon RV Valdosta GA and informed me of tires being unsafe due to sidewalls cracking and should be replaced.Learned of recall while in FL by other Campers. Upon research recall was found. tires have not yet failed however safety concern on moving rv to dealer is on my mind. West lake isn't interested in rectifing issue.

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
