TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 SUNNYBROOK 36BWKS. THE VEHICLE HAS NANCO TIRES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL THE SIDEWALLS ON THE TIRES HAVE DRY ROTTED. THE SPARE, WHICH HAD NEVER BEEN USED, WAS ALSO CRACKED. THE ORIGINAL TIRES HAD THE SAME FAILURE. THE TIRE COMPANY SENT FOUR NEW TIRES, BUT THEY FAILED WORSE THAN THE OTHERS. THE TIRE COMPANY OFFERED ANOTHER SET OF TIRES, BUT THE CONTACT REFUSED. HE STATED THAT HE WOULD PURCHASE TIRES OF THE SAME STYLE AND WOULD BE REIMBURSED UPON EXAMINATION OF THE TIRES. NO OTHER VEHICLE INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE. THE TIRE LINE, SIZE, AND DOT NUMBER WERE UNKNOWN.
ON CERTAIN TOWABLE, NON-MOTORIZED, TRAVEL TRAILERS AND FIFTH WHEEL RECREATIONAL VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH TREDIT WHEELS, THE RIMS MAY HAVE POOR WELD QUALITY AND INSUFFICIENT PRESS FIT BETWEEN THE WHEEL RIM AND DISC.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: 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.
Remedy: SUNNYBROOK IS WORKING WITH TREDIT TIRE TO NOTIFY OWNERS AND HAVE THE WHEELS REPLACED. THE RECALL BEGAN ON OCTOBER 28, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT SUNNYBROOK AT 574-825-5250.
