This bulletin is being revised to add model years. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 07-03-10-008B (Section 03 - Suspension).

This bulletin provides information regarding the normal tire wear condition of slight or mild tire feathering and recommended practices.

If a vehicle comes into a dealership with a concern of slight or mild feathering-type wear on the tires, review with the customer their past tire

rotation history. Tires should be rotated every 8,000 to 13,000 km (5,000 to 8,000 mi) for applicable vehicles with tires where a tire rotation is

possible or recommended. Refer to the owner manual and review related bulletins for information on tire rotation for vehicles with different

front/rear tire/wheel sizes.

SOME TIRE FEATHERING IS A NORMAL PART OF TIRE WEAR AND THROUGH PROPER TIRE ROTATION AND INFLATION, THIS

TIRE WEAR CAN BE MINIMIZED AND TIRE LIFE MAXIMIZED.

If the customer has not rotated the tires within the last 8,000 to 13,000 km (5,000 to 8,000 mi), a tire rotation in the modified X-pattern is necessary

to clean-up the feathering, rather than placing the vehicle on the alignment machine.
