Why it was recalled
Welds in the product may fail or break causing the arm of the bracket and wheel to bend away from the vehicle or detach from the vehicle completely.
Hazard
Risk of serious injury to road users or bystanders if the wheel carrier bends or detaches while driving the vehicle. There is an increased risk of an incident if the vehicle is being used in off-road activities due to repeated severe, sudden and jerking movements.
