As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."

Consequence

An owner or operator could rely on the inaccurate information in inflating the tires which could cause under or over inflation which, in turn, could lead to a tire failure or crash.

Remedy
