NHTSA Complaint #11703496 — 2025 JEEP GLADIATOR

A tire-related safety issue was discovered on a recently purchased 4×4 vehicle. The left rear tire was found to be a completely different model from the other tires, and it consistently lost air pressure shortly after the vehicle was picked up. The mismatched tire and repeated PSI loss created a potential safety risk because uneven traction on a 4×4 vehicle can affect braking stability, handling, and overall control. This condition could lead to loss of control, especially at higher speeds or in emergency situations . The issue was inspected by an authorized service center, which confirmed that the tire was losing air and that the tire model did not match the others. However, only one rear tire was replaced, leaving the vehicle with one new tire and one used tire on the same axle. This does not resolve the safety concern. No warning lamps were displayed, but the tire repeatedly showed low pressure shortly after driving. The mismatch and pressure loss were the first noticeable symptoms. The component (rear tires) is available for inspection upon request.
