What this recall means for you
Some vehicles built between February 4, 2016 and April 25, 2016 may have a Tire and Loading Information label that shows an incorrect maximum weight. The label does not meet federal tire and loading labeling requirements.
Because the label lists the wrong maximum weight, an owner could load the vehicle beyond its safe limit without realizing it. Overloading can reduce the driver's control of the vehicle and increase the risk of a crash.
General Motors will notify owners, and authorized dealers will install a corrected label if needed, at no cost to you. You can contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300 with questions, and you can check your VIN for open recalls.
