Problem Description

The units for the values of the tire pressure table in the owner’s manual (kPa and PSI) were assigned to the wrong columns and therefore do not match the actual numbers. The tire pressure values on the B-pillar “Tire and Loading Information” label are correct; however, if a customer tries to inflate the tires solely according to the tire pressure table in the owner’s manual, the tires could be either over- or under-inflated, which could lead to a negative effect on driving stability, potentially causing a loss of vehicle control which might lead to a crash.

 

Corrective Action

Provide an owner’s manual insert with the corrected tire pressure table. AudieBay logo will be mailing this owner’s manual insert to customers along with the recall notification letter. Dealers with affected vehicles in inventory are asked to follow the work instructions in this circular to ensure that this supplement is included with the glove box literature/owner manual of each affected inventory vehicle.

 

Code Visibility

On or about February 25, 2022, the campaign code will be applied to affected vehicles.

 

Owner  Notification

Owner notification will take place in March 2022. Owner letter examples are included in this bulletin for your reference.

Chronology :

November 2021: AudieBay logo of America informed AudieBay logo AG that they found a mistake within the owner’s manual regarding the tire pressure table. An immediate investigation was started and the topic was submitted to the AudieBay logo Product Safety Committee.

November 2021 – January 2022: A Stop-Order was issued for all vehicles still in the port and the factory. The online owner´s manual was corrected and a supplement with the corrected tire pressure table was issued and attached to the owner’s manual in production. Vehicles still in the port and in the factory also received the owner´s manual insert. Affected scope of vehicles in the field was verified and the topic was discussed with the North American market regarding regulatory requirements and possible impacts. Evaluation found that FMVSS 110 regulates the so called B-pillar label, which is correct in this matter and referenced in the owner’s manual as the source for tire pressures. However, 49 CFR § 575.6(a)(4) requires an information for the customer regarding the correct tire pressure. Risk assessment for the possibility to fill in the wrong tire pressure by the customer.

February 09, 2022: Although there is no FMVSS non-compliance and the tire pressure label on the B-pillar is correct, the AudieBay logo Product Safety Committee decides a voluntary recall in order to provide customers with an updated correct tire pressure table.

AudieBay logo is not aware of any customer complaints, warranty records, crashes or injuries due to this issue.
