Ameritrail one of the rotating components in the hydraulic pump for the brake actuator missed a heat treating operation causing the actuator to wear at a higher than normal rate.
The short version
Ameritrail, Inc. reported a problem with the service brakes. Here is what owners need to know.
One of the rotating components in the hydraulic pump for the brake actuator 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.
Loss of braking ability can lead to loss of control of the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash, serious injuries, or property damage.
Ameritrail will notify owners, and dealers will replace the actuator, free of charge.
