On certain trucks equipped with the Harley Davidson option package, the road wheels may develop cracks. Over time, the cracks may progress to the point of wheel failure, which could result in separation of the wheel from the axle. A wheel separating from the vehicle could cause a loss of control and a crash. In addition, the errant wheel assembly could strike a vehicle, stationary object or a bystander. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the wheels.
