BMW Recall 17V-327: Tires

Affected: 2017 BMW X5, 2017 BMW X6. Filed with NHTSA on May 18, 2017, covering about 24 vehicles.

The problem

BMW North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2017 BMW X5 M and BMW X6 M vehicles. The vehicles are equipped with 21-inch tires, however the Tire Information Label states that the vehicles are equipped with 20-inch tires. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

The risk

The incorrect tire size on the label does not comply with FMVSS number 110.

The fix

BMW has notified the affected owners and is providing them with a corrected tire information placard, free of charge. The recall began June 15, 2017. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
