Toyota bZ

On certain 2023 Toyota bZ4X vehicles, the wheel hub bolts may not be tightened to specification and can loosen, potentially causing wheel loss. Symptoms include vibration, clunking from the wheel area, or steering wobble, and if ignored, the bolts can break and the wheel can detach, increasing crash risk. This is covered by NHTSA recall 22V393, and the repair is free of charge, so there is no paid out-of-pocket cost for owners.
