Issue

On certain vehicles equipped with steel wheels, the lug nuts on the front wheels can loosen over time, causing vibration. If this vibration is unnoticed by the operator, and the wheel nuts were to loosen, it could lead to a complete separation of the wheel(s) from the vehicle, which would increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will repair or replace the lug nuts and associated wheels as necessary.
