When i got back from my last trip, i noticed on two of the spokes that there are hair line cracks on both sides of the spoke.
The
wheels is factory Ford Courier & is on the rear passengers side.
Has any one had this happen?
Is this some thing i should talk to Ford about?
Cheers

The same thing happened to my previous Patrol.
Nissan had 5 new heavy duty rims in Gosford from Melb the next day.
No money or questions asked.

Id be talking to ford very quickly,
I had a truck rim crack and it was taken back to ROH (manufacture) and was replaced.
There is a date stamp somewhere on the rim and because it was less than 5 years old and had no signs of impact, it was replaced no questions asked.
This may not be applicable to your courier(no mention of age or kilometers), you may not get it replaced, however THEY need to be told

yeah I had 3 sunraysia rims crack - not the more popular brands but some unknown brand the tyre
shop fitted. I told them I did not want these unknown brand at the time but they assured me they where alright - after the 3 cracked they replaced them with Australian made ROH.
