2005 Road Runner TRI Axle recall: wheels
⚠️ What's wrong
On one boat trailer equipped with tredit wheels, the rims may have poor weld quality and insufficient press fit between the wheel rim and disc.
💥 The risk
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
Roadrunner is working with tredit tire to notify the owner and have the rims replaced. The recall began on september 14, 2005. Owners may contact roadrunner at 972-492-0285.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
