DESCRIPTION:

The front bushing in the rear longitudinal stay may fail, causing one or more symptoms:

• Knocking / clunking noise from rear suspension on uneven roads.
• Pulling / drifting due to incorrect wheel alignment / rear wheel camber angle.
• Unstable rear suspension on curvy roads.

The analysis indicates that there could be some corrosion on the bushings outer metal ring, which causes the vulcanized rubber to loosen

Waxed bushings, which may reduce corrosion, were introduced in production from 2012w10.
