Service bulletin 16-01-006-2

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

2015MY GENESIS SEDAN (DH) TIRE REPLACEMENT (RECALL 138) Description: On certain 2015MY Genesis sedan (DH) vehicles the original equipment tires (Hankook Ventus S1 Noble 2) may exhibit uneven tread wear; and/or cracks along the sidewall(s). The cracks in the sidewall of a tire could result in air loss and a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. This bulletin describes the service procedure to replace the Hankook brand tires with 18” Michelin tires or 19” Continental tires. Vehicles equipped with 18” tires require a software update which changes the Engine Control Module’s speed governor from 149 to 130 mph to accommodate the tire speed rating change from W for the Hankook tires to V for the Michelins.
