Defect
Wilson trailer company (wilson trailer) is recalling certain model year 2012 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
Wilson trailer will notify owners, and dexter axle will replace the actuators, free of charge. The safety recall began on may 16, 2012. Owners may contact wilson trailer at 1-712-252-6477.
