Michelin Crossclimate 235/55R18: Tires

Affects Michelin Crossclimate 235/55R18 · 2018 — about 377 vehicles.

The hazard

Certain tires do not comply with the performance requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 139 - New Radial Ply Tires for Motor Vehicles with a GVWR of 4 536 kg or less. The tires are not marked with the maximum inflation pressure and the maximum load rating on the sidewall, as required by the standard. This could potentially lead to overloading and/or improper tire inflation, which may cause a tire failure and create a risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Michelin will provide instructions to the owners on how to obtain replacement tires.
