## Discrepancy

MAIN WHEELS UNDER TORQUE FROM PRODUCTION:  WE HAVE NOW REPLACED FOUR MAIN WHEELS ASSY. FROM NEW AND ALL FOUR WHEEL NUTS HAVE BEEN LOOSE ON THE AXLE SINCE THE AIRCRAFT WENT INTO SERVICE. IT WAS NOT DISCOVERED UNTIL THE WHEEL WAS REPLACED. OEM HAS BEEN CONTACTED ABOUT THE MAIN WHEEL BEING LOOSE ON THE AXLE BUT YET NO RESPONSE ON HOW THEY ARE GOING TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
