The product poses a risk of traffic accident and injury due to a possible loss of pressure in Michelin tyres mounted on 20-inch wheel rims (MICHELIN 255/35 ZR20 97Y EXTRA LOAD PILOT SPORT 1 SERIES). The loss of tyre pressure may reduce the effectiveness of vehicle braking or steering. This may occur due to the partial separation of certain tyre wall components.
