Details | Certain passenger vehicles. Model year 2000-2001 Nissan Sentra vehicles manufactured from February 1, 2000, through June 26, 2001. The cooling holes in the steel road wheel may have burrs on their edge as a result of improper manufacturing. These burrs can cause stress concentration as the vehicle is being driven. Cracks can propagate these burrs between adjacent cooling holes. If enough cracks develop between the cooling holes, the wheel could fail and separate from the mounting hub without prior warning. Separation of the wheel from the vehicle while being operated could result in a vehicle crash, possibly resulting in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace all road wheels free of charge. . |
