The problem

Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks equipped with accuride 22.5 x 8.25 15 tubeless demountable rims, part no. 32051. Certain rims contain a non-fusion area in the butt-weld of the mounting ring. Under certain circumstances, the defect could develop into a crack on the mounting ring.

The risk

Over time, the crack could propagate and if not heeded, could result in mounting ring failure, potentially causing the rim to separate from the vehicle.

The fix

Accuride will inspect and replace the defective or suspect wheel rims.
