Dishwasher Rack Not Sliding? Adjuster and Wheel Assembly WPW10571738 – Fix Broken Rack Wheels Fast
When your dishwasher's upper or lo
wer rack won't slide smoothly, derails, or sits unevenly, a broken adjuster and wheel assembly is the most common cause. In most Whirlpool, KitchenAid, and Maytag dishwashers, this is caused by a cracked or broken rack wheel or adjuster clip. When it fails, the rack tilts, catches on the tub walls, or falls off the track entirely — making loading and unloading difficult and potentially damaging dishes. ⚡ Common failure point in Whirlpool-built dishwashers. Part WPW10571738 is the genuine OEM replacement that restores smooth, level rack operation immediately.

⚠️ Recommended While Repairing:
Rack wheels typically fail in pairs — if one side is broken, inspect the opposite side and all remaining wheels before reassembling. Replacing all worn wheels at the same time prevents a repeat repair within weeks and keeps the rack level for even wash coverage.
⚙️ Installation
Skill Level: Easy — 5–10 minutes. No tools required. Pull the rack out of the dishwasher, locate the broken adjuster/wheel on the rack side rail, squeeze the retaining tabs and pop the old assembly off, then snap the new one into place. Slide the rack back onto the tub rails to confirm smooth operation before running a cycle.

💡 Pro Tip
Check the Tub Rails While You're In There:
Before installing the new wheel assembly, run your finger along the plastic tub rail tracks. If they feel rough, cracked, or have raised edges, the rails may be causing premature wheel wear. Smooth any burrs with fine sandpaper or replace the rail caps if damaged — this extends the life of your new wheels significantly.
