What is wrong: Reinke is recalling certain 2010-2013 intermodal chassis frames. On certain chassis frames, the locking ring that secures the spindle nut is missing from the axle or is improperly installed and the spindle nuts may not be properly torqued which can lead to wheel separation.
Risk: If wheel separation occurs, the driver may lose control of the vehicle, and detached dual wheels may enter the roadway, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Reinke will notify owners, and service repair facilities will inspect and repair axles as necessary. This service will be performed free of charge. The recall began on may 2, 2012. Owners may contact reinke at 1‑402‑365‑7521 or toll free 1‑877‑762‑1001.
