Delta recall: Equipment
What is wrong
Delta is recalling one model year 2011 210 gn flatbed trailer and one model year 2011 212 gn flatbed trailer each equipped with a dexter axle electric/hydraulic (e/h) brake actuator pump. This pump may not have been properly heat treated. This condition can cause premature wear of some critical components in this pump which can render the unit inoperable.
What could happen
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.
The fix
Notices were mailed to owners on june 12, 2012. Dexter axle dealers will replace the e/h brake actuator pump free of charge. Owners may contact delta at 1-870-523-8941.
