Consumer information and Reporting safety defects


Vehicle label
The vehicle label is affixed to the driv-
er’s side B-pillar (US).
On Canadian vehicles this label is lo-
cated inside the glovebox.Example:
The vehicle label shows original tire
size, recommended cold tire inflation
pressure on each tire at maximum
loaded vehicle weight, seating capac-
ity and loading information.


Adverse safety consequences
of under-inflation
Driving at high speeds with exces-
sively low tire pressures can cause
the tires to flex severely and to rapidly
become hot. A sharp increase in tem-
perature could cause tread separa-
tion, and failure of the tire(s). Possible
resulting loss of vehicle control could
lead to an accident.


Measuring and adjusting air
pressure to achieve proper infla-
tion
Check and, if necessary, adjust the
pressure of each tire (including the
spare) at least once a month and be-
fore any long journey. Check the tire
pressures when the tires are cold.
Use a pressure gauge to adjust the
tire pressures to the specific values.
Driving even a short distance warms
up the tires and increases the tire
pressures. Also, the tire pressures
are affected by the outside tempera-
ture. It is best to check tire pressure
outdoors before driving the vehicle.
When a tire becomes warm, the air in-
side it expands, causing the tire pres-
sure to increase. Be careful not to
mistakenly release air from a warm
tire to reduce its pressure.

Glossary of tire terminology
Cold tire pressure
The pressure in a tire that has been
driven less than 1 mile or has been
standing for three hours or more.
