The problem

On certain fifth wheel trailers equipped with tredit wheels, the rim 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

Skyline is working with tredit tire to notify owners and have the wheels replaced with a 16" aluminum wheel. The recall began on september 8, 2005. Owners may contact skyline at 574-294-6521.
