Service bulletin TT 44-13-01

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.

For this reason a diagnostic balancer is necessary to balance, force match and/or select tire placement so that the vibration may be improved. This document informs of how to diagnose, and service potential issues in alignment
