Plain-English summary

Carlisle Transportation Products (CTP) is recalling certain 908 Yuma, 910 Intruder, and 921 Intrepid series Black Rock toy hauler trailer wheels. These wheels were manufactured between August 9, 2010, and February 7, 2012, and were sold as original equipment for various boat, camper, and utility trailer vehicles.

The recall is due to manufacturing defects where machine dimensions for the center cap and steel lug inserts were not controlled to required blueprint specifications. As a result, the wheels may not be tightened to proper torque requirements during the mounting process. This condition could allow the wheels to loosen, leading to wheel separation, which could result in a vehicle crash. A detached wheel also becomes a road hazard.

CTP is working with vehicle manufacturers to identify and notify owners of vehicles containing the affected wheels. Dealers will repair or replace the affected wheels free of charge. The safety recall began on April 13, 2012. Owners may contact the CTP Customer Care Department at 1-909-923-2710 or their vehicle manufacturer for assistance.
