The hazard

On certain fifth wheel trailers, excessive paint on the wheel hub mounting surface could cause a reduction in wheel stud clamp load. This could cause wheel stud failure, which could result in wheel separation. 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, a stationary object, or a bystander. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will remove the paint from the hub face wheel mounting surface.
