Toyota Tacoma: Tires
Affects Toyota Tacoma · 2006 — about 178 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the tire bead may have been damaged due to improper assembly of the tires onto the wheels. If the vehicle is operated in this condition, there is a possibility that a bulge may be formed on the sidewall and/or may leak from the area of the damaged bead. The loss of air pressure will cause the tire to run under-inflated and may result in early failure causing a vehicle crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the tires.
