2011 EXPRESS CARGO; 2012 EXPRESS CARGO
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Express Trailers is recalling certain 2011-2012 Express Cargo trailers that came equipped with Carlisle Tire and Wheel brand aluminum wheels. The wheels were manufactured with machine dimensions that did not meet required specifications for the center cap and steel lug inserts, which means the wheels may not have been tightened to the proper torque during installation.
If the wheels are not tightened to the proper torque, they could loosen and separate from the trailer, potentially causing a vehicle crash and creating a road hazard. Affected owners were notified in October 2012. According to the recall notice, owners should contact Express Trailers at 1-727-572-4265 for more information.
