Tyre identification - How to determine if your tyre is affected?

Sidewall inscription

To verify if a specific tyre is affected by the voluntary recall program, check the tyre sidewall inscription. Only tyres with their brand name, product line, tyre size and DOT code identified in the recall program scope are affected and should therefore be the only tyres changed.

The attached pictures provide samples of the relevant sidewall inscriptions. The sample is a Continental ContiSportContact 5 SUV AO 255/45R20 101W and General Tire Grabber AT3 LT265/75R16 123/120S
