Chevrolet Malibu Wheels Safety Report | Dec 18, 2013



Reported on Dec 18, 2013


WHILE DRIVING OUT OF PARKING GARAGE GOING MINIMAL SPEED, MY RIGHT REAR PASSENGER WHEEL DISLOCATED FROM MY VEHICLE. AFTER GETTING IT TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND FURTHER INSPECTION, LOOKS LIKE THE VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY ASSEMBLED WITH ONLY 2 OF THE NEEDED 4 BOLTS ATTACHING THE WHEEL TO THE HUB OF THE CAR. THIS CAUSED STRAIN TO THE 2 BOLTS AND YOU CAN VISIBLY SEE STRESS CRACKS ON THE HUB WHERE THERE WERE PLACED. *TR
