Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
0
InvestigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
1
Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

DP10002ClosedDefect Petition

Wheel & Pulley Collapse

Opened Feb 18, 2010
Closed Dec 21, 2011

On January 27, 2010 the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) was petitioned by Thomas M. Gisslen, that it conduct an ?investigation of certain products manufactured by Dayton Wheel Concepts, Inc. and that the agency issue an order requiring Dayton Wheel to remedy certain alleged design defects.In assessing the petitioner's claim that the subject Dayton products are defective, NHTSA reviewed all reasonably available information (including Dayton's responses to our information requests) to determine whether the products were failing in real-world use and, if so, how frequently.After conducting a comprehensive effort to uncover reports of Dayton wheel separation and/or collapse or motorcycle drive pulley failure, we found no such reports concerning Dayton wheels and one (from 2007) involving a drive pulley, the latter apparently resulting from improper installation.Based on that review, we found no evidence that a safety-related defect trend, related to the petitioner's allegations, currently exists.Therefore, in view of the need to allocate and prioritize NHTSA's limited resources to best accomplish the agency's safety mission, the petition is denied. However, we will continue screening for related reports and will take further action if warranted.
