Recall 12V-220: 2012 Cam 6CAM18C, 2012 Cam 7CAM19STT
CAM SUPERLINE, INC recall for equipment, reported to NHTSA on May 15, 2012, covering about 2 vehicles.
The problem
Cam superline is recalling one model year 2012 6cam18c trailer and one model year 2012 7cam19stt 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.
The 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.
The fix
Cam superline has notified all owners, and dexter has replaced the actuators, free of charge, therefore, an owner notification notice will not be issued for this campaign. Owners may contact cam superline, inc. At 1-717-749-3369.
