Defect
Anderson manufacturing, inc. (anderson) is recalling certain model year 2008 and 2011 gooseneck trailers equipped with dexter electric/hydraulic (e/h) brake actuator pumps. Some of these pumps may not have been properly heat treated. This condition can cause premature wear of some critical components in these pumps which can render the unit inoperable.
Safety risk
The e/h brake actuator provides braking power to the trailer brakes. Failure of the actuator can result in the loss of braking effort by the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Anderson will notify owners, and dexter will replace the actuators, free of charge. The safety recall began on june 25, 2012. Owners may contact anderson manufacturing at 1-229-336-5800.
