On certain trucks, the Michelin 365/85R20 tires may not be compatible with the maximum load and maximum speed ratings. Vehicle over-loading and tire under-inflation may cause tire failure which could result in vehicle rollover and injury to occupant(s). Correction: Dealers will replace the tires with Michelin 395/85R20 tires, and an updated certification label will be affixed to the vehicle.
