What is this? This is a truck tyre made by Yokohama. It may have a flaw in the shape of the tyre’s side.

What's happening? The side of the tyre might crack where it meets the tread. If the crack grows, air could leak out. This could cause the tyre to fail while driving.

Does this affect me? If you drive a truck in Germany fitted with this tyre, you could be at risk.

What should I do? Stop using the tyre and ask your tyre fitter or mechanic for advice.
