What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with center wheel lock and hub assemblies bearing the Torque specification inscription "500 nm" on the center bolt sold for use on model year 2010 and 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo vehicles. Should vehicles equipped with the affected kits be operated under racing conditions, there is a possibility that the wheel retention system may fail.
