What is wrong
CERTAIN TRUCKS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 120, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS FOR MOTOR VEHICLES OTHER THAN PASSENGER CARS," AND WITH PART 567, 'CERTIFICATION.' THE "COMPLETE VEHICLE" LABEL WITH THE GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING (GVWR), GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING (GAWR), RECOMMENDED TIRE SIZE AND TIRE PRESSURE WAS NOT INSTALLED ON THE VEHICLE.
What can happen
A MISUNDERSTANDING OF THE VEHICLE'S WEIGHT RATING, TIRE TYPE, OR TIRE PRESSURE MAY CAUSE A VEHICLE TO BE OPERATED OUTSIDE ITS DESIGNED PARAMETERS. THIS COULD RESULT IN A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
DEALERS WILL MAIL VIN SPECIFIC LABELS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION. IF AN OWNER DOES NOT WISH TO INSTALL THE LABEL, THE VEHICLE MAY BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSTALLATION WITHOUT CHARGE. THIS RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 8, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT INTERNATIONAL AT 1-800-448-7825.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
