The defect

Wheel rims may have a 90 degree stamp crease along the curvature. This causes vehicle load stresses to be concentrated on the crease instead of being equally distributed. Fatigue cracking may develop and could lead to rim separation.

The remedy

Upon inspection, defective rims will be replaced without charge to owner.
