The problem
Ez loader is recalling certain model year 2012 ez loader boat trailers equipped with a carlisle hydrastar brake actuator. One of the rotating components in the hydraulic pump missed a heat treat operation causing the actuator to wear at a higher than normal rate. As a result, the hydraulic pump could fail and result in a loss of braking ability in the trailer.
The risk
Loss of braking ability can lead to loss of control of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash, serious injuries, or property damage.
The fix
The safety recall began on march 19, 2012. Owners may contact ez loader at 1-509-489-0181.
