Kumho Tire USA has recalled about 36,000 Mohave light truck all-terrain tires. The recall is for sizes LT225/75R16, LT245/75R16, and LT265/75R16, produced between December 7, 2008 and June, 2009. The tires can cause the vehicle’s handling to become difficult when operated under load or when changing lanes. This could cause the vehicle to sway and possibly cause a crash. The tire brand name, tire line, tire size and production dates are:

  • KUMHO / MOHAVE A/T / LT225/75R16 DEC 07, 2008 – JUN 13, 2009

Number one firm

I really appreciate the law firm, they look into every detail, they review everything with you not just once but several times to make sure everything is correct. They are a very good law firm and I would highly recommend them. They'll always call you back when you call with questions. They're number one in my book.
