What NHTSA recorded

On certain police vehicles equipped with steel wheels, some of the wheels may develop cracks in the rim near the weld line that connects the rim to the disk.

Possible consequence

The cracks can ultimately result in rapid air loss from the tire and could affect vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and replace the four road wheels and spare wheel based on the wheel part number. The recall began on march 15, 2007. Owners should contact ford at 1-800-343-5338.
