What can go wrong

The rear wheel hubs may come loose which will produce noise to warn the driver. However should the driver continue to driver the vehicle it is possible that the wheel and hub will detach from the vehicle.

The fix

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to replace the hub bolts and where necessary also replace the wheel hubs.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
