## Discrepancy

SHIP 0991 - THE CREW RETURNED THE AIRCRAFT TO ATL DUE TO A #2 TIRE FAILURE DURING TAKE OFF. GEAR WAS NOT RETRACTED BUT SHOWED A "LEFT GAR UNSAFE" MESSAGE. THE AIRCRAFT LANDED BELOW MAXIMUM WEIGHT. CORRECTIVE ACTION: MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE #1 AND #2 MAIN TIRE ASSEMBLIES, THE #1 ENGINE LOWER COWL, AND ALSO REPAIRED LEFT GEAR DOOR LOCK SENSOR AND WIRING. (LP #5163244)
