Reason for this recall	It has been decided that the vehicles in the recall population fail to conform to the requirements of Part 567, “Certification.” The vehicles subject to this recall may have been manufactured with the incorrect information on the Federal Identification Tag. The tag indicates the rim size is 15×6, tire size is ST205/75R14D @ 75 psi. The correct rim size is 15×6, tire size is LT235/75R15D @ 65 psi. This does not affect the GVWR just wheel data.
