Vision Wheel recall: Wheels
What is wrong
Vision wheels, inc. (vision wheels) is recalling certain aftermarket wheels, specifically the warrior model in the phantom black finish, sizes 17â and 18â. Insufficient machining of the hub bore may result in incorrect wheel mounting when the wheel is used with a hub centering ring.
What could happen
The insufficient machining and use of the supplied hub centering ring for these wheels may cause the wheel and tire assembly to become loose or potentially fall off during vehicle operation, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Vision wheel will notify the purchasers of these aftermarket wheels and will replace any wheels found containing an affected hub bore at no cost to the owner. The safety recall began on july 19, 2012. Owners may contact vision wheels at 1-800-633-3936.
