Tires

Recall date November 14, 2001
Models affected
  • 2002 BMW 5 Series
Units affected 105
Details

Certain passenger vehicles built with standard (non-sport) suspension and equipped with continental ContTuringContact CH95 EcoPlus tires in the size 225/65R16 95H, having dotted codes 4001, 4101, or 4201.

During the tire mounting process, the outer sidewall surface may have been cut by a sharp edge.

Operation of the vehicle over a long period of time could lead to a reduction of inflation pressure.

Continued driving with low inflation pressure in the tire could ultimately result in damage to the tire, affect vehicle handling and control, and could in some cases result in a vehicle crash.

Correction: dealers will inspect all five tires for a possible cut in the sidewall, and if a cut is found, the tire will be replaced.
