Pro Comp Suspension Recall


This info was not available on Pro Comps website :cool:

1) there may be folks still driving around with these parts. Ex: The 19 year old previous owner of your truck could have just tossed the recall letter in the trash as i still have not replaced my recalled tail-gate wachamaclates that GM keeps on telling me to replace

They should recall the entire company since it is controlled by 4wheel parts.

I've installed a few of their kits at customer request over the years and needless to say I'm not impressed,nor am I surprised about the recall. I think Joe-Bob with a torch and some rusty scrap steel could "engineer" and " fabricate" a better lift in his back yard. ):h

TRANSAMERICAN AUTO PARTS owns/operates

Explorer Pro Comp Suspension

DriveTrain Warehouse
Genuine Steel

and some other companies that I'm still getting confirmation

AS FOR THE PRO COMP TIRE RECALL.......if the NHTSA just gets a couple more complaints from consumers.....their RECALL will read like the COOPER TIRE RECALL, thats right COOPER TIRES makes Pro Crap tires as well.


about 4% of their tires are defective, let me copy and paste the NHTSA REPORT below.

VEHICLE CATEGORY: LIGHT TRUCKS.SYSTEM: TIRES; COOPER DISCOVERER RADIAL CONSEQUENCES OF DEFECT: TIRES MAY LOSE AIR RAPIDLY AND LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROLAND AN ACCIDENT MAY RESULT.NOTE: DEFECT MAY BE INDICATED BY A BULGE IN THE SHOULDER AND TREAD AREA. THECONDITION MAY CAUSE VIBRATION WHEN TIRE IS IN USE. MAINTAIN PROPER INFLATIONAND AVOID DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS UNTIL TIRES ARE REPLACED


this is copied and pasted from an actual recall
