- Summary
- McClain Trailers (McClain) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 AT and ATT boat trailers equipped with Carlisle Tire and Wheel brand aluminum wheels installed as original equipment. These wheels were manufactured with machine dimensions for the application of a center cap and the application of steel lug inserts that were not controlled to the required specifications. As a result, the wheel may not be tightened to the proper torque during the mounting process.
- Consequence
- If the wheels are not tightened to the proper torque, the wheels could loosen, leading to wheel separation, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash. A detached wheel also becomes a road hazard.
- Remedy
- McClain will notify owners, and Carlisle Tire and Wheel dealers will repair or replace the affected wheels free of charge. The recall began on August 24, 2012. Owners may contact McClain Trailers at 1-713-675-2761.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Has your Mcclain been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Mcclain dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
