What's wrong, in plain English
The tire information placard on these vehicles may show the wrong tire size and tire pressure. Because the numbers printed on it are incorrect, the placard does not give accurate information about which tires should be used or how much air should be in them. This means the information a driver would see on that label may not match what the vehicle actually needs.
What you should do
Contact a BMW dealer, or call BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
The tire information placard will be replaced free of charge.
Where do I find my VIN, and what do I tell the dealer?
Your VIN is the 17-character code on the lower left of the windshield, on your registration and usually on your insurance card. Enter it at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see whether this recall is still open on your car. When you call the dealer, say you have an open safety recall and give them NHTSA campaign number 24V327000.
