Metalfab Sport Boat Trailer: Brakes

Affects Metalfab Sport Boat Trailer · 2010 — about 12 vehicles.

The hazard

Certain sport boat trailers equipped with brakes may have an improperly assembled brake actuator as well as air in the brake lines. This could result in the brake system not engaging when operated, and the subsequent loss of braking ability of the trailer. This could result in a crash causing property damage, personal injury, or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the actuator assembly and, if leaks are found or if air is in the brake lines, the fluid leaks will be corrected and air will be bled from the lines.
