What happened

California Trailer Works, Inc. is recalling certain 2011-2012 boat trailers equipped with Carlisle Transport Products brand wheels. The wheels were manufactured with machine dimensions that were not controlled to required specifications, which means they may not be tightened to proper torque during mounting. If the wheels are not tightened correctly, they could loosen and separate from the trailer, potentially causing a vehicle crash and creating a road hazard.

CTW will notify owners, and authorized dealers will repair or replace the affected wheels at no charge. Affected consumers should contact California Trailer Works, Inc. at 1-916-381-7619 for more information.

What should I do?

CTW will notify owners, and dealers will repair or replace affected wheels free of charge. CTW has not provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact California Trailer Works, Inc. at 1-916-381-7619.
