What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: passenger vehicles equipped with alloy wheels and sold in puerto rico. These wheels were manufactured without the steel bushing inserts around the wheel bolt openings, allowing friction between the wheel bolt seats and the wheel bolts. This can result in the bolts loosening during hard braking.

Possible consequence

The wheel could detach from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will retorque the wheel bolts and will update the owner's manual wheel bolt torque specification.
