What Happened
Your vehicle's tire and loading information label lists the correct weight your truck or SUV can carry and the right tire pressure. Unfortunately, the label on your vehicle has an incorrect weight limit.
Risk if Unfixed
If you load your vehicle with more weight than the incorrect label says is safe, you could end up with underinflated tires. This could cause a tire to fail while you're driving, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealership will give you a corrected label with the accurate weight limit and installation instructions. You can install it yourself or have a dealer do it for you at no charge.
