Pro Comp recall: Wheels
What is wrong
TAP Worldwide LLC (TAP) is recalling certain Pro Comp Extended Thread Lug Nuts, part numbers 21138, 21138B, and 26148 marketed as an accessory to be used with Pro Comp accessory or aftermarket wheels. These lug nuts may not seat properly and may bottom out when used with certain third-part wheel models.
What could happen
If the lug nuts bottom out before they are properly tightened, they may come loose, affecting wheel mounting and causing a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
TAP will notify owners and will provide replacement lug nuts with shorter shanks, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2018. Owners may contact TAP customer service at 1-888-376-1417 or by email at [email protected].
