Mazda is recalling 13,108 examples of its 2019-model-year Mazda3 in Canada because a manufacturing defect may increase the odds the wheels will fall off.

The Japanese automaker says while the lug nuts on the wheels were tightened to the correct specification at the factory, a manufacturing error may mean a gap between the wheel hub bolt and the hub flange was left during assembly.

The gap could allow the lug nuts to loosen when the vehicle is in motion, which could in turn result in the wheels falling off completely.

Drivers will hear a rattling sound before the wheel completely separates from the car, Mazda suggested.

Recalled vehicles will simply have their lug nuts re-torqued to the correct specifications. No incidents of wheels detaching from Mazda3s has yet been reported, nor have any accidents or injuries tied to the defect.
