What NHTSA recorded

This relationship is not present.

Possible consequence

Too low or too high tire pressure can cause premature wear and/or tire damage, and could lead to unfavorable driving conditions.

Owners will be provided with new tire information placards and installation instructions. At the customer's option, a dealer can perform the installation for them. The recall began on november 30, 2005. Owners may contact mini at 1-866-275-6464.
