Known issues on the 2001 Seville. One recall is on federal record for this model year, covering the tire pressure label: vehicles fitted with P235/55R17 tires were sent out with a label incorrectly specifying P235/60ZR16 tires, and running incorrect inflation pressure can damage the tires, affect handling, and raise the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 53 complaints for the year, though no technical service bulletins are logged.
