2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost recalls 2
Recall repairs are free. Your dealer fixes them whether or not you bought the car there - check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to see if yours is done. What to do
- The problem
- Certain model year 2012 Ghost passenger vehicles manufactured from March 27, 2012, through July 13, 2012 were equipped with 20-inch tires, but the tire information label states that the vehicles were equipped with 19-inch tires. Therefore, the label does not conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, Tire Selection and Rims."
- The risk
- Incorrect tire placard information such as an incrorrect recommended pressure may lead to tire inflation errors which could result in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
- The fix
- The owners of the affected vehicles have all received corrected tire information labels, therefore, an owner notification letter will not be issued for this campaign.
