On certain vehicles, the brake rotor material strength may be below engineering specifications which could result in low fatigue life. A hub fatigue fracture may result in crack propagation around the wheel mounting bolt circle, and may ultimately result in a wheel separation. Correction: Brake rotors will be inspected and replaced if necessary with proper material composition rotors.
