Recall 2012257

The issue

One some units, the wheel lug nuts were installed without using a calibrated torque wrench. Undertorqued lug nuts could cause the wheels to become loose or separate from the vehicle, resulting in poor vehicle handling, an increased risk of a crash causing personal injuries and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will verify wheel lug nut torque.

Description (français)

Sur certaines unités, les écrous de roue ont été posés sans utiliser de clé dynamométrique étalonnée. Des écrous de roue pas assez serrés pourraient causer le desserrement des roues ou leur détachement du véhicule, ce qui rendrait mauvais le comportement routier du véhicule, augmenterait les risques d'accident blessant quelqu'un ou endommagant des biens matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront vérifier le couple de serrage des écrous de roue.
