Reported risk: When the tires are overinflated, they can explode causing the wheel hub to separate or break, ejecting pieces of the hub. This poses a risk of injury to consumers. Harper Trucks, Inc. has received 19 reports of overinflated tires exploding that resulted in 19 injuries including broken bones, loss of sight in one eye, contusions and lacerations. Three of these reports involve model number 51TK19, the only model sold in Canada. Health Canada has not received reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of the hand trucks.
