Official summary
Effective June 2, 2008, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 110 (FMVSS 110) set a threshold for correcting load capacity information indicated on tire placards when the vehicle weight has been increased before retail sale. This limit is the lesser of 1.5% of the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating or 45.4kg (100 pounds). If the total added weight exceeds the lesser of the limit, a label (See Figure 1) must be added to the driver-side B-pillar within 25mm (1 inch) of the original tire placard.
Vehicles covered
What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
