Details

What's wrong: On certain fifth wheel trailers equipped with tredit wheels, the rims may have poor weld quality and insufficient press fit between the wheel rim and disc.

Why it matters: The center of the wheel could separate from the rim. The wheel may wobble and cause a vibration or the mounted tire could lose air causing the tire to go flat, resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Coachmen is working with tredit tire to notify owners and have the wheels replaced with a 16" steel rim wheel. The recall began on September 21, 2005.
