📄 Summary
This notice sets forth the reasons for the denial of a defect petition (DP26002) submitted by Mr. Bhupinder Dhadda. The petition requested that the Agency initiate a safety defect investigation into wheel fastening practices on heavy-duty vehicles and vehicles utilizing 10-285.75 mm bolt circle wheels, with the focus of the investigation being the absence of a redundant mechanical wheel fastener mechanism. After conducting a technical review of the petition and other information, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation has concluded that the issues raised by the petition do not warrant a defect investigation at this time. Accordingly, the Agency has denied the petition.
