Details

What's wrong: The load carrying capacity printed on the tire and loading information placard is 22.5 kg (51 lbs.) more than intended. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "tire selection and rims."

Why it matters: An incorrect label may lead to unintentionally overloading the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Gm will mail owners a new b-pillar label, free of charge. Owners may apply the label, or bring it to a dealer for installation. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 17, 2021.
