Finally the old G159s are being recalled for tread throwing behavior. Not sure if 225/75-16E count as an RV tire but worth trying. Lenzi had at least 2 on his coach last I saw it if I’m correct.

Did somebody finally decide not to sign a non disclosure agreement?
Geez, took them long enough.
When I worked there management really hated it when I brought up the G159 story when they were preaching safety.

Heard it on News Radio today. National Highway Safety board or some like govt agency forced the recall. If it works like the Firestone 721 recall you get new tires no prorate.

I'm sensing a story here of general interest. Did you sign a NDA?

I didn't, but people who crashed because of blowouts and later sued Goodyear signed them when things were settled out of court.
They swept it under the rug for years
