NHTSA and Navistar have announced a recall of certain Navistar-built Lonestar trucks due to wheel fatigue concerns.
Only some 40 trucks are involved in the recall, NHTSA said, and were sold to customers in the U.S. and Canada.
Navistar said the problem is that “over time, due to corrosion and fatigue, the wheels may crack, resulting in possible wheel separation from the vehicle.”
The truck maker is recalling certain 2010-2011 model year International Lonestar vehicles. The models in question were manufactured from Jan. 29, 2009, through to Feb. 21, 2011, and were equipped with the Harley Davidson option package with feature codes 27DRV and 28DRV.
