Product design flaw and failure-poor service
I too have a wheeled dump cart. The first time we put something slightly heavy, and I do mean SLIGHTLY, the right front tire went flat. We tried finding a replacement tube to no avail. Finally contacted Tricam, who sent us a new wheel. We used our cart a couple of times for light weight stuff, then again for something heavy....and guess what? Yep, popped again!! We were done for the summer, and I forgot about getting ahold of Tricam over the winter as the cart was stored. Spring has come, and we have been extremely busy with another part of our life, and the other day, I needed the cart. I had forgotten the wheel was flat again, and contacted Tricam. It is obvious that since the SAME wheel keeps popping when weight is put into it, that there has to be some sort of design flaw. I tried to get them to just replace my cart so we could continue using it. I realize it may be just our cart, and that we were the lucky ones that got a flawed cart off the assembly line. However, since I was a little late on the warranty, they gave in and are replacing the tire....again....but refuse to replace the cart. Well...as a result Tricam, I have already told lots of people about your poor customer service....and they have already changed their mind about your carts and your products over all. Sorry Tricam, you just lost a LOT of business, all because you refused to replace just 1 faulty cart!!!! I realize that I forgot to contact them sooner. But I also thought we bought the cart in June last year, so I wasn't terribly worried until now. Come to find out, we bought it when it was on sale early in spring, I don't think we used it though until June. So my bad. But still....the company could do a little better. If this is the only cart they have had this complaint on, then what harm is it to replace 1 cart. The issue I have is the poor customer service, and that we payed a lot of money for a cart we cannot use!! At this point, I will no longer purchase items made by Tricam due to the poor customer service.

Verified Reviewer New ReviewerThe spilt rim tire failure 15 minutes out of the box Model GW0865D-1
Dear Tricam Industries and Tractor Supply, You are welcome to contact me to discuss the attached and below failure of your product. Model GW0865D-1 I will forward you all the pics and the fastener expert’s statement determining the cause of the spilt rim tire failure 15 minutes out of the box. Your split rim tire exploded as a result of poor product quality of the fasteners (Nut in Bolts) holding the tire together. Summary – Note sufficient thread engagement between the Nut and Bolt. Even when the tire is pressurized well below manual specification. I will be posting all the pic and information on Facebook, Twitter and U Tube on or before Jan 1, 2014. I am fully aware of Michigan’s laws regarding liability and responsibility of the distributor (Tracker Supply) and Manufacture (Tricam Industries.). I suffered from a broken nose,skull, teeth, my nose and upper lip were ripped and hanging from my face. I experienced emotional depression and numerous fear of any object striking my face. My fear of driving lasted 3 months, I often had to wear a helmet and face shield just to drive my car to work. It has taken me 14 month and many discussions with attorneys to come to turns with the situation and determine the path I will undertake against Tractor Supply and Tricam Industries. I have purchase additional parts from Tricam Industries Website and Cart from Tractor Supply to develop a record of history and poor product quality. Derek V.

There are some really sick commenters on here. The man did not say he "over inflated" the tire.
To put air in a tire valve, normally you do have your face within a few feet of the tire, and facing the tire to see what you are doing. For the Smart A$$'s here: there are other reviews/reports of wheel failure on this product on other sites, including Amazon.
For anyone experiencing a possibly dangerous failure of this product, please file a report/complaint (easy to do on-line) with the Federal Consumer Product Safety Commission, at
https://www.cpsc.gov/ .
You may save others from injury.
There are also many reviews of the bad or non-existent customer service of Tricam. Not hard to believe.
- the same type of wheel/tire combo can be bought at harbor freight stores for $6-7.00 each.
Never ever ever, over inflate a tire when your face is so close to it. Dumb ***.
buyer beware.
Let me guess you got drunk and one of your friends run you over with that thing. I mean how can someone get hurt like that did the tire fly right in your face or something?
I am sorry but I can figure out how on earth that thing hurt you so bad it looks like you got beat up...
Tractor Supplies stuff is all made overseas and the quality questionable. I am sure you are not the only person that has had this problem.
Man!
Keep your kids away from that thing.
They need to recall the kart like they did not *** ladder.
Check is out.
