Defect SummaryThe front wheel hub can develop cracks at the wheel mounting studs. when mounted to the hub, the hydraulic brake disc rotor does not properly support the hub at the wheel studs causing excessive stress and fatigue cracks in the hub.
Consequence SummaryShould sufficient cracks occur, the mounting flange portion of the hub along with the wheel could separate from the vehicle without warning. should this occur while the vehicle is driven, the driver could lose control of the vehicle and/or the separated wheel and hub could strike another vehicle, pedestrian or property.
Corrective SummaryDealers will install new, redesigned hubs on these vehicles.
