NOTE: ONLY 7 UNITS HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO DEALERS IN ALBERTA (5), MANITOBA (1) AND NOVA SCOTIA (1). WHEEL STUDS USED IN SOME LEFT SIDE REAR HUB ASSEMBLIES DID NOT HARDEN TO GRADE B STRENGTH. THIS COULD CAUSE THE STUDS TO FAIL AND THE DISC WHEEL TO BECOME LOOSE, LEADING TO LOSS OF THE WHEEL ASSEMBLY AND CREATING THE POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE CRASH. CORRECTION: SUSPECT STUDS WILL BE REMOVED AND REPLACED ON INVOLVED VEHICLES.
