What is wrong

Certain long-wheelbase (Q70L) models may fail to comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 110 - Tire Selection and Rims. The compliance labels may bear incorrect Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) and and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) information, contrary to the requirements of the standard. Correction: Revised labels will be mailed to owners along with instructions for proper installation. If owners are not comfortable installing the label themselves, they can take the label to a dealer for installation.
