Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the
parts to which it is fastened, can
cause wheel nuts to become loose

and cause a crash. When changing a
wheel, remove any rust or dirt from
places where the wheel attaches to
the vehicle. In an emergency, a cloth
or paper towel can be used; however,
use a scraper or wire brush later to
remove all rust or dirt.
