The issue
On certain vehicles, cracks may develop in the wheel mounting surface, and, should the cracks become severe enough, the wheel could completely separate from the vehicle. This could adversely affect steering and braking control and result in a crash without prior warning. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected and wheels falling within a specified date code range will be replaced.
Description (français)
Sur certains véhicules, des fissures peuvent se former dans la surface de montage de la roue. Si ces fissures deviennent assez importantes, la roue peut se détacher complètement du véhicule, ce qui pourrait nuire à la conduite et au freinage et être la cause d'un accident imprévisible. Correction: Les véhicules devront être inspectés et les roues portant certains codes de date devront être remplacées.
