The short answer

NHTSA received Maxion Wheels/Hayes Lemmerz’s report on Jan 18, 2013. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 20, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

Separation of the rim and tire from the vehicle can result in a loss of control and a vehicle crash.

Hayes Lemmerz International Commercial Highway, Inc.

(Hayes Lemmerz), is recalling certain commercial steel wheels, model 10073 with date codes ending in A030912 and B030912.

These wheels were sold as aftermarket/replacement equipment or installed as original equipment on various commercial highway vehicles (highway tractor, truck, trailer and bus applications).

Due to an inadequate weld between the wheel disc and rim, the disc can separate from the rim.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
