What is wrong
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2012 titan and armada vehicles, manufactured from august 12, 2011, through march 13, 2012. The part 567 certification labels on the vehicles do not contain rim size information. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 110, tire selection and rims.
The risk
The omission of the rim size may lead to an incorrect tire/wheel combination which 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. Owners may contact nissan at 1-[removed].
