Recall 2004271

The issue

Certain tires do not comply with the requirements of CMVSS 109. The sidewall markings on the P195/60R15 tires incorrectly state: Max Load 470 kg (1036 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi). Instead, the tires should have been marked: Max Load 540 kg (1190 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi). The sidewall marking on the P205/60R15 tires incorrectly state: Max Load 510 kg (1124 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi). Instead, the tires should have been marked: Max Load 590 kg (1301 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi). Correction: Since the capacity of both tires is understated at the marked inflation pressure of 35 psi, this does not pose any safety risk, therefore no corrective action is required.

Description (français)

Certains pneus ne satisfont pas aux exigences de la NSVAC 109. Les marques des flancs des pneus P195/60R15 indiquent, à tort : " Max Load 470 kg (1036 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi) ". Les pneus devraient plutôt indiquer : " Max Load 540 kg (1190 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi) ". Les marques des flancs des pneus P205/60R15 indiquent, à tort : " Max Load 510 kg (1124 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi) ". Les pneus devraient plutôt indiquer : " Max Load 590 kg (1301 lbs) Max Pres 240 kpa (35 psi) ". Correction : Comme la capacité des deux pneus n'est pas atteinte à la pression de gonflage de 35 lb/po2, cela ne pose aucun risque pour la sécurité et, donc, aucune action correctrice n'est nécessaire.
