What is this? A car part called Flair has a problem. The small caps on the tires may not hold air well.

What's happening? These caps could break. This might cause a tire to lose air slowly or even fail while driving.

Does this affect me? If you drive a car with Flair parts, you could be at risk. This is in Germany, Sweden, and the Netherlands.

What should I do? Take your car to a repair shop right away. Ask your mechanic about the Flair parts. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you feel unsafe driving.
