Vise certains véhicules équipés de roues chromées de 17 po. Parmi les 275 roues portant le numéro de lot de traitement thermique B1706, environ 74 ont échappé audit traitement. Il se peut, à la longue, qu'une roue chromée qui n'a pas reçu de traitement thermique développe des fissures dans les trous des goujons et que les écrous se desserrent; la roue risque alors de se détacher du véhicule. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les roues visées par des roues qui ont reçu le traitement thermique B1706.
