Lamborghini Diablo
Reported Oct 3, 199526 vehicles affectedAUTOMOBILI LAMBORGHINIBuilt May 1, 1994 – Aug 1, 1994
The defect
The rear of the wheel center section was painted causing a loss of friction between the wheel center piece and the flange (backing plate) enabling the flange to rotate and/or the sleeve through which the lug studs pass were not properly inserted in the wheels.
The risk
The rotating flange can apply pressure against the cylinders causing the cylinders to become loose. This can result in a loss of torque for the lug nut, and consequently, the wheel could loosen, causing a possible loss of vehicle control.
The remedy
Dealers will inspect each wheel. If the wheels are not the correct type, any and/or all of the original wheels will be replaced with a new properly manufactured wheel.
