On certain vehicles, the compliance label contains Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) values that exceeds the capacity of the tires. Loading the vehicle beyond tire capacity could result in poor vehicle handling and braking characteristics, and possible tire failure, which could lead to a loss of vehicle control, causing a crash with personal injury or death.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Updated labels will be mailed to owners of affected vehicles, along with instructions for proper installation.

Certain vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 120. The Tire and Loading Information Label was printed with incorrect Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) data. The information printed on the affected labels is that for the Civic LX model, which weighs less than the Civic EX model. The incorrect labels indicate a GVWR of 1665 kg, front GAWR of 880 kg and rear GAWR of 785 kg. The labels should instead indicate a GVWR of 1695 kg, front GAWR of 895 kg and rear GAWR of 800 kg. Since this does not pose any safety risk, no corrective action is required.
Certain off-road motorcycles, ATVs and competition motorcycles do not have the required bilingual warning label indicating that the vehicle is a restricted use motorcycle or an all-terrain vehicle and is not intended for use on public highways.

On certain vehicles, the owner's manual does not contain information concerning a higher risk of rollover and special features for occasional off-road operation. Canadian regulations in this area differ from those in the United States and thus Canadian vehicles are not out of compliance. However, the visor label does refer to the owner's manual for further higher risk rollover information, therefore, DaimlerChrysler will mail an addendum card for insertion into the owner's manual. A bilingual visor label will also be included as part of this mailing for use as required.

Certain vehicles may have received an incorrect replacement Body Control Module (BCM). Specifically, if, during service, the BCM was replaced with P/N 284B1-CA508 or P/N 284B1-CA509, the Daytime Running Lights (DRL) could become inoperative. As a result, these vehicles would no longer comply with CMVSS 108. Since this action deals with replacement parts, it is a deemed a Service Campaign and is not being conducted under the Safety Act.
