Service bulletin T-SB-0042-16

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

DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS, TIRES ARE MOUNTED ON THE VEHICLE AS MATCHED SETS TO HELP REDUCE CONDITIONS SUCH AS PULLING OR DRIFTING. IF THE WHEELS ARE REPLACED OR REFINISHED BEFORE VEHICLE DELIVERY, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE TIRES REMAIN ON THE VEHICLE IN THE SAME LOCATION AND IN THE SAME DIRECTION OF ROTATION.
