## What is wrong

On certain M3 vehicles, the tires may have been damaged during transportation from port to dealerships.  The transit of vehicles at very low temperature may have caused cracking of the treads.  If the treads have experienced cracking, the tire may fail at high speed and could result in a crash causing injuries or death.  Correction: Dealers will inspect the affected tires and replace them as necessary.
