BMW X4 tire label shows wrong size and pressure

NHTSA campaign 21V646000 · Reported 2021-08-18 · BMW of North America, LLC

low How serious is it? About this label

The wrong tires or wrong tire pressure make a crash more likely, but the notice does not tell owners to stop driving or park outside.

What's wrong, in plain English

The tire information label on certain X4 xDrive30i vehicles lists the wrong tire size and the wrong air pressure. If you or a tire shop go by that sticker, the car could end up with tires that are the wrong size for it, or tires inflated to the wrong pressure. A dealer swaps in a corrected tire label free of charge, which puts the right numbers back on the car.

What you should do

1. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your X4 is affected. 2. Contact your BMW dealer to have the label replaced, or call BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417. 3. Have the new label installed at no cost.
