Issue: rnOn certain cars, the tire placard label has some errors in recommended tire pressure. Specifically, the pounds per square inch (u201cPSIu201d) pressures have small errors: rn 1. Cars with rear 225/45R18 tires incorrectly list 35 PSI instead of 36 PSI. rn 2. Cars with rear 225/40R19 tires incorrectly list 37 PSI instead of 39 PSI. rn 3. Cars with rear 225/35R19 tires incorrectly list 33 PSI instead of 35 PSI. rnAll of the metric pressures are correct. rnrnSafety Risk: rnThese small variations in recommended tire pressure are unlikely to affect safety. rnrnCorrective Actions: rnThis is not a recall. The company has made production changes to ensure that the tire placard label on all new cars has the correct tire inflation pressures.
