## What is wrong

On certain XE models, the size of the spare tire wheel rim is incorrect.  The wheel rim does not fit properly on the front hubs and will contact the brake caliper.  Continued usage of the spare tire wheel on a front hub can also result in loosening of the lug nuts and an increase in brake fluid temperature.  This may eventually cause the wheel to separate from the vehicle and/or deterioration in braking performance.  Correction:  Dealers will replace the wheel rim and re\-install the spare tire.
