What was wrong

Defect

THESE VEHICLES MAY NOT CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 120, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS". THE EXISTING CERTIFICATION LABELS SHOW GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT AS 2680 LBS. RATHER THAN 2630 LBS. IF VEHICLE IS LOADED TO THE MAXIMUM WEIGHT STATED ON THE LABEL, OVERLOADING COULD LEAD TO TIRE TREAD SEPARATIONS.

Manufacturer remedy

DEALER WILL INSTALL A CERTIFICATION LABEL SHOWING THE PROPER GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING AT NO COST TO OWNER.
