Can you imagine the liability involved with a decision to release the vehicle at a time that technically voids its own warranty with regard to rubber?

The tires will be fine during transport,Its not like the cars will be driven at high speeds during the loading/unloading process.
The tires will also be fine while the car is sitting up in Oshawa waiting for delivery.
And its not like the tires "can't" be in the cold at all,the bulletin says to let them warm up to 40 degrees F prior to any highway use "if" they have been in temps under 20 degrees F.
When my SS arrived in mid-February this year the carrier driver told me when he loaded it that it was about -15 degrees F in Oshawa (I work at the dealership,so I get to see all the vehicles arriving) the P-Zero's are "summer only" tires and they survived just fine.
