Wheels and Tires Caution

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Suzuki SX4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

WARNING: Failure to use proper wheel fasteners or to perform proper maintenance / repair of wheels can cause unsafe operating conditions.

Replace wheel fasteners only with fasteners having the same part number or their equivalent. Do not use replacement parts of lesser quality or substitute design.
Tighten wheel fasteners to the specified torque value to assure proper retention of wheels.
Never attempt to repair any wheel by welding. Excessive heat caused by welding may damage the wheel.
