Defect

Incorrect tire pressure can cause premature wear and tire damage which could lead to unfavorable driving conditions increasing the risk of a crash.

Owners will be provided with new tire information placards and installation instructions. At the customer's option, a dealer can install the label for them. The recall began on january 16, 2008. Owners may contact MINI at 1-866-275-6464.
