Popping/Ticking in Wheel Assembly

[outkastist]

Just wanted to give a heads up. I was noticing a popping/ticking in my front driver's side wheel assembly area when I back up and turn the wheel. I thought maybe a hub was going bad or something, so I took it to my local dealership to have a look. At first they couldn't find anything, but after some digging they found a bulletin (#17-NA-271) stating that it was a dust issue between the wheel and rotor surface. They cleaned it according to the bulletin, and it seems to be all better now. Just wanted to throw it out there in case it helps someone save some time.

Thanks for sharing! I'll definitely make sure to keep this area clean when I do my next tire rotation.
