What is wrong
Vehicle description: sport utility vehicles. One or both of the bolts that retain the brake caliper to the axle may have missed a final assembly torque operation. Consequently they may be loose or possibly missing.
The risk
Caliper disengagement from the axle could result causing reduced vehicle stability when braking and possibly locking up of the affected wheel.
The fix
Dealers will inspect these vehicles to verify that the proper torque has been applied.
