What happened

Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. is recalling certain Discoverer M+S Sport tires in 14 specific sizes (ranging from 235/75R15 to 255/50R19).

The affected tires may not provide the expected traction or performance in snow conditions, increasing the risk of a crash.

Cooper will notify owners of the affected tires, and dealers will replace all recalled tires with tires from a different brand line at no charge. The recall began on February 20, 2017. Affected owners should contact Cooper customer service at 1-800-854-6288 (recall number 166) to proceed with the replacement.
