What's wrong?
The rear axle hub on a 2016 Cruiser Rv Stryker Toy trailer is the mounting point that holds each wheel to the axle. Wheel studs are the threaded metal posts pressed into that hub. The lug nuts tighten onto those studs, keeping the wheel clamped flat against the hub while the trailer is being towed.
On affected trailers, the studs can break because of tempered martensitic embrittlement. In plain terms, the metal became too brittle during the hardening process. A brittle stud does not stretch and hold clamping force the way it should, so towing loads can snap the stud instead of letting it keep the wheel secured. The replacement parts come from other suppliers or a different production lot.
The warning sign is a missing wheel stud. During a walkaround, look at each wheel for an empty stud hole or hardware that is no longer present.

What's the safety risk?
Broken wheel studs can let a wheel detach from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. Missing wheel studs are the warning sign. Check the wheels before towing and schedule the repair soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Cruiser Rv dealer once available.
What should I do?

- Contact Cruiser Rv customer service at 1-866-277-5630 to confirm repair instructions before moving the trailer.
- Schedule the free wheel-hub replacement that fixes the axle-hub studs that can break and let a wheel detach.

What happens at the repair
Cruiser Rv's remedy is a dealer replacement of each wheel hub covered by the recall. At the dealer, a Cruiser Rv technician checks the trailer hubs included in the campaign and replaces an affected hub with a corrected part. Cruiser lists the work as free of charge. Because the remedy status is not confirmed in the input, schedule the repair only after the dealer confirms parts and recall coverage for your VIN.
