On certain vehicles, the rear axle hub bearing assembly bolt may not have been tightened properly. This could cause the bolts to become loose and detach from the hub assembly, which could damage the rear brake components. This could increase stopping distances and could also potentially cause wheel lock up, resulting in vehicle instability increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect bolts and tighten to specification. If bolts are missing, the rear axle hub bearing assembly and rear brake components will be replaced.
