What NHTSA recorded

During a combined cornering and braking maneuver, the tie rod end could contact the tire wall. Consequence of defect: this contact can cause grooving of the tire, which could eventually result in tire failure and possibly a vehicle crash without prior warning.

Remedy

Replace 16" wheels and tires with 19 1/2" wheels and tires; also, replace speedometer gear to compensate for new size wheels and tires.
