Nissan Motor () Navara: Possible Wheel Detachment
Recall Summary Nissan is recalling 35,630 Navara vehicles in the United Kingdom because aluminum wheels may develop cracks when the vehicle is fully loaded and driven with sharp turning at high speeds. If ignored, these cracks can spread and potentially lead to wheel detachment, which could affect how the vehicle handles. Nissan will replace the affected wheels.
