What am I missing? I don't see any reference to the XPS Ribs.
Link says Michelin is recalling the Goodrich Commercial T/As and the Uniroyal Laredos.
Nothing about Michelin branded tires.

Don't know about the recall, but the Chevrolet dealer and Michelin have had to replace 4 of the six Michelin tires on my 2011 Chevy 3500 due to tire seperation.

Ah your right, just the Goodrich and Uniroyal. Somehow I read the Michelin tire line into it as well, I think from the news banner this morning.

Boxer Lovers:
Which Michelin's did you have to replace? I just got a set of XLT M&S2's at Sam's Club. Date code was 2412 and size LT245R75/16. See my signature for truck data.

I will watch this closely. Busted belt on the right rear of my truck last fall. Had 2 buy two to keep everything equal on the same axle. Received a 50% adjustment. Didn't seem fair to me.
Had to really work to get a dealer to replace the 2 front ones from severe cracking 2 month ago. They didn't want to help because I didn't buy from them. Also had a tough time dealing with the BFG rep.

Based on the 120 Q rating, it looks like this may be the XPS Rib and XPS Traction tires being recalled along with the Uniroyal counterpart.
I have the LTX A/T2 on my TV, but based on the "Q" speed rating in the recall mine are not included.
So maybe you should edit the Subject line!

If you edit your OP, the subject line will appear allowing you to change it (if you wish).
