VOLVO CARS OF NA, INC. recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on May 9, 1995, covering about 5,199 vehicles.
The problem
The tire label contains size and pressure information concerning the spare tire. The listed size (155r15) and pressure (40 PSI) are incorrect. The correct size and pressure for the spare tire are t125/90r15 and 60 PSI.
The risk
If an owner installs a spare tire and adjusts its pressure to 40 PSI, there is a risk of tire failure, especially if the vehicle is driven for a long period of time.
The fix
Owners will be mailed a new, correct tire pressure label to install on their vehicles. If owners prefer, they can take their vehicle to a dealer and have them install the label.
