What Happened
The information label on your vehicle is where you'll find important details about your tires and the weight your vehicle can handle. Unfortunately, some of these labels got printed with the wrong information.
Risk if Unfixed
If the label is wrong, you might load your vehicle incorrectly or underinflate your tires, which could cause a tire to fail while driving. This increases the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will give you the correct label and instructions to install it. You can also ask them to install it for you at no charge. Just look out for a recall notification and follow the instructions to get it fixed.
