How it is said to have ended
- says it was fixed2
- says it did not fix it2
- result not stated11
A ribbon is as wide as the records that state both of its ends (only the commonest are drawn). A record that names several symptoms or components runs through each. Orange is records that say the fault came back or was not fixed. Results come from owners’ reports only; one that does not say is “result not stated”. None of this is a likelihood of a cause or a rate at which work succeeds.

Wheel Hub Assembly Bearing Nut Loosening Recall
1Fault

- On 2x4 vehicles, raise the vehicle on an approved hoist first; the hub assembly is good if a yellow, green or blue paint mark is seen on the grease cap on the inboard side of the steering knuckle.
- If the paint mark is not present, remove the wheel and the brake rotor and clean rust from the hub assembly face to check for the date code stamping.
- Defective hub assemblies can be identified by the country of origin on the package together with a recalled date code, by the date code on the package, or by the date code on the hub assembly.
- If a round yellow sticker is present on the box label, the part is good.
3Correction
