NHTSA Complaint #707241 — 1999 GMC SIERRA

HAVING THE WRONG TIRE PRESSURE DECAL IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND SO FAR FOR OVER A MONTH GMC DOES NOT SEEM TO BE CONCERNED! AS RECEIVED FROM THE DEALER MY HALF-TON TRUCK HAS THE WRONG TIRE PRESSURE DECAL ON THE DS DOOR.IT IS AN SLE VIN [XXX] WITH P255/70R16 TIRES ON IT.. THE STICKER HAS A VIN OF [XXX] MODEL C25753 AND TELLING ME TO INFLATE MY FRONT TIRE TO 50PSI AND THE BACK 80PSI !. THE MAX. TIRE PRESSURE IS 50PSI. INFLATING MY TIRES TO THE DECAL PRESSURES COULD CAUSE AN EXPLOSION. THE OWNERS MANUAL TELLS YOU TO USE THE STICKER TO INFLATE YOUR TIRES. AS A MEMBER OF SAE I SAW RIGHT OFF SOMETHING WAS WRONG AND SO FAR GMC DOES NOT THINK THIS IS A BIG DEAL. IF SOMEONE THAT KNOWS NO BETTER ON TIRE INFLATION WERE TO GET A BAD STICKER LIKE THIS IT WOULD BE A BIG DEAL. THE STICKER ON THERE IS FOR A C3500 DUALLY PICK-UP. I WANTED YOU TO HELP ME AND MAKE GMC TAKE A LOOK TO SEE IF THIS IS NOT THE ONLY PROBLEM TRUCK FOR TIRE INFLATION. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
