Details

What's wrong: Certain model year 2012 Nissan titan vehicles, manufactured from June 10, 2011, through July 22, 2011, equipped with the sports appearance package have incorrect seating capacity information displayed on the tire placard. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 110, "tire selection and rims."

Why it matters: An incorrect capacity label may lead to vehicle overloading. Vehicle overloading may increase the likelihood of a crash.

The fix: Nissan will supply owners with a new label and instructions on how install the label or the owner will have the option of taking their vehicle to a Nissan dealer to have the new label installed free of charge. The safety recall began on May 28, 2012.
