BMW has issued a recall for an unspecified number of X5 and X6 vehicles from the 2011 model year, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The recall affects vehicles built between April 1 and May 8, 2010, which have tire labels that don’t meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, “Tire Selection and Rims.” While the vehicles are equipped with 20-inch wheels, the labels say they’re equipped with 19-inch wheels, which makes the required tire pressure incorrect, as well.

Tires improperly inflated can cause poor vehicle handling or even blowouts, both of which can lead to accidents.

BMW will provide the correct labels, and owners can either affix the labels themselves or take their vehicle to a BMW dealer, who will do it for free. Owners may contact BMW at 800-525-7417 or NHTSA’s hot line at 888-327-4236.
