A. Recall 247A Description

Volvo Cars of North America, LLC (Volvo) has decided that certain model year 2011 - 2012 S60 vehicles equipped with an accessory spare tire fail to conform to Federal and Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, "Tire selection and Rims."

The Tire and Loading Information label located on the "B" Post in the drivers door opening; required by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) and Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 110 Section 4.3; may not contain the spare tire size and inflation pressure information. However, the information on the tire sidewall and in the owners manual is correct.

The corrective action is to inspect the Tire and Loading Information label to ensure it has the spare tire information, and replace the label if necessary. Volvo retailers will also add a Spare Wheel Supplement to the spare tire section of the Owners Manual.

A total of 1,011 U.S. and 13 Canadian vehicles are eligible for this recall.
