What's wrong?
The tire inflation label on a 2012-2025 Autocar Xspotter is the vehicle placard that tells an owner or service shop the correct tire inflation information. When the label is printed correctly, it gives the pressure information used when tires are checked, inflated, or replaced. That label is part of the vehicle's required tire and rim information.
On affected Xspotter vehicles, the label was printed with incorrect tire inflation information because of a manufacturing error. The label itself is the defective part. A tire or wheel does not have to be broken for this recall to apply; the problem is that the printed guidance on the vehicle is wrong.
There is no warning sign before failure. Owners are not expected to hear, feel, or see a driving symptom from the label problem itself. The issue is found by checking whether the vehicle has the incorrect tire inflation label.

The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific truck is included.
What's the safety risk?
Incorrect tire inflation information can lead owners to set tires below the required pressure. Under inflated tires increase crash risk because the tire is not being used at the intended pressure. There is no warning sign before the incorrect label is relied on, so check for the corrected label and follow it. Repair is free at any franchised Autocar dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2012-2025 Autocar Xspotter is included in this recall.
- Contact Autocar customer service at 1-888-218-3611 to request the free corrected tire inflation label.
- Install the corrected label when it arrives, or ask a franchised Autocar dealer to apply it before the vehicle returns to service.
- Reference recall number 25V451 and Autocar recall ACTT-2504 when you call.

What happens at the repair
