Defect. Alumina, Inc., dba Boatwheels, is recalling one model year 2011 PB25-TM1040, one 2011 PB20-TM6000, and one 2011 PB20-SL3500 trailer equipped with certain 908 Yuma, 910 Intruder, and 921 Intrepid series Black Rock toy hauler trailer wheels. Due to a manufacturing defect, the wheels may not be tightened to the proper torque requirements.

Risk. This condition could allow the wheels to loosen, leading to wheel separation, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.

Remedy. Alumina will notify owners and direct them to contact the supplier, Carlisle. The affected wheels will be replaced at the owners nearest service center, free of charge. The recall will begin in November 2012. Owners may contact Alumina, Inc. at 1-419-433-2300.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
