Defect Description
BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 MINI Cooper Hardtop two door vehicles manufactured December 1, 2013, to December 14, 2014. The affected vehicles may have been manufactured with an incorrect maximum capacity weight stated on the Tire Information Placard.

Safety Consequence
The maximum weight listed on the label is incorrect (too low) and therefore does not comply with Federal Regulations.
