DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE TRAVELING 65 MPH THE PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL ON THE TRAILER BLEW OUT TEARING THE FENDER OFF THE TRAILER. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER AND THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO REPLACE THE TIRE. THE TIRE WOULD NOT FIT BECAUSE THE FRAME WAS ON THE FENDER WELD. THE CONTACT THEN NOTICED THE AXLE WAS WELDED 22 INCHES BEHIND THE WHEEL ON ONE SIDE AND 25 INCHES ON THE OTHER SIDE. BYSTANDERS MANAGED TO REPLACE THE TIRE, AND THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN TO A DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A 2006 ROAD KING 10009. THE WELDS ON THE FRONT OF THE SPRING CAME LOOSE ON RIGHT WHEEL, AND A CRACK WAS THROUGH THE WELD ON THE LEFT SPRING HANGER WHICH WAS ATTACHED TO THE AXLE. UPDATE ON 05/16/2006. *AK *NM

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.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
