- Summary
- On involved vehicles, the rear axle hub upright, which connects the hub carrier to the lower control arm, may pivot slightly. This condition will occur if the bolts attaching the upright to the hub carrier are not kept tight, combined with severe cornering conditions. This pivoting condition will cause the bolts to elongate the holes of the upright, resulting in rear wheel vibration. This will eventually lead to hub carrier breakage.
- Remedy
- The dealer will inspect and replace the upright part of the hub assembly at no charge.
- Notes
- Vehicle description: passenger vehicles.system: suspension; rear axle hub.consequences of defect: in the event of hub carrier breakage, the wheel willride up towards the wheel well until the upper control arm makes contact withthe bump stop. The half shaft will maintain driving stability but due to theslightly raised angle at which it will operate, the half shaft will begin toknuckle, generating a very audible grinding noise.note: if such a grinding noise is heard, the vehicle should be stoppedimmediately.

Has your Aurora been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Aurora dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
