Official summary
ACCURIDE IS RECALLING ONE TUBELESS DUPLEX WHEEL, SIZE 22.5 X 14.00 15 DEGREE, WITH ACCURIDE PART NUMBER 29627. THE WHEEL IS COMPOSED OF A RIM THAT SUPPORTS THE TIRE AND A DISC THAT ARE WELDED INTO A ONE PIECE ASSEMBLY. THE ATTACHMENT WELD BETWEEN THE DISC AND THE RIM IS MISSING.
Official consequence
A WHEEL WITHOUT AN ATTACHMENT WELD WILL NOT HAVE THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY TO SUPPORT THE LOAD OF THE VEHICLE AND THE TIRE. ANY SIGNIFICANT SIDE FORCE ON THE WHEEL DURING NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS AND LOADS COULD CAUSE THE DISC TO DISENGAGE FROM THE RIM. IF THE RIM AND DISC SEPARATE, THE RIM COULD COME OFF THE VEHICLE POSSIBLY CAUSING A CRASH RESULTING IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
