Edit Request

The sentence "The company produces commercial vehicle wheels, wheel-end components and assemblies, truck body and chassis parts, seating assemblies and other commercial vehicle components. Accuride markets its products using three brand names: Accuride, Gunite, and KIC." should read "The company produces commercial vehicle wheels, wheel-end components and assemblies, and other commercial vehicle components. Accuride markets its products using three brand names: Accuride, Gunite, and KIC."
