American Pacific Industries Inc. has recalled 761 Gladiator brand truck and trailer tires of various sizes. According to the report filed with the NHTSA, these tires were imported without API’s knowledge.

“API Inc. was notified by US Customs of brand infringement and we discovered tires were reject, defaced, defective and deemed non-compliant with NHTSA safety standard,” said API in its report.

The tires were produced by Deruibao Tire Co. Ltd., a factory in Guangrao Economic Development Zone, Shandong, China. In a declaration letter, the factory claimed that it has authorization to manufacture Gladiator brand tires.

All recalled tires have been captured and quarantined at the border and will be destroyed by the US Customs. Since all of the affected tires have been recovered, an owner notification letter will not be issued. Customers may contact API at 1-661-702-8801.
