2012 Elite Livestock Trailer recalls
Recall 13V-209: Service Brakes, Hydraulic
Problem: Elite Trailer Manufacturing is recalling certain model year 2012 Livestock Gooseneck trailers manufactured November 17, 2011, through January 17, 2012. These vehicles are equipped with Carlisle hydraulic brake actuators. One of the rotating components in the hydraulic brake pump missed a heat treating 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.
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.
Fix: Elite Trailer has notified all affected owners and dealers have replaced all of the defective actuators. Owners may contact Elite Trailer at 1-800-657-7305.
