Defect description

ON INVOLVED VEHICLES, THE REAR AXLE HUB UPRIGHT, WHICH CONNECTS THE HUB CARRIER TO THE LOWER CONTROL ARM, MAY PIVOT SLIGHTLY. THIS CONDITION WILL OCCUR IF THE BOLTS ATTACHING THE UPRIGHT TO THE HUB CARRIER ARE NOT KEPT TIGHT, COMBINED WITH SEVERE CORNERING CONDITIONS. THIS PIVOTING CONDITION WILL CAUSE THE BOLTS TO ELONGATE THE HOLES OF THE UPRIGHT, RESULTING IN REAR WHEEL VIBRATION. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO HUB CARRIER BREAKAGE.

Manufacturer remedy

THE DEALER WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE UPRIGHT PART OF THE HUB ASSEMBLY AT NO CHARGE.
