Defect
On steel disc wheels fitted to heavy-duty trucks, an improper rim-forming die causes the mating surface between the rim and disc at the weld joint to be non-uniform, resulting in insufficient fatigue strength at the weld. Extended use allows cracks to develop at the weld. In the worst case, the disc wheel may fracture.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, verify the production serial number of the disc wheel and, if the wheel falls within the affected range, replace it with a conforming unit.
