Details
What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles equipped with 6-cylinder engines, the aluminum wheels may have an off-center diameter.
Why it matters: This can result in the eventual loosening of the wheel hub-nuts during vehicle usage, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will replace all 4 aluminum wheels. Owner notification began September 12, 2002.
