What I find interesting about this recall is that they are talking about centerlock wheel mechanisms but they never include the Carrera GT. Perhaps they redesigned them after the Carrera GT came out and made things worse.

youre right MIKE

Dan thats a good point. Perhaps the CGT has the UBER design whereas the latter design is cheaper.

Is there anyone who is enthusiastically supportive of the concept of centerlock wheels for a road car?

I thought the GTS was included. I guess not on this link.

CGT has a different design, as do the Cup cars.

Hello all,

Just double checked with PCNA- my May 3 2011 build 2012 GTS is not in recall VIN list thankfully.

I am inquiring about WB10 Service campaign though at local dealer.
