Kaufman Trailers during use, the suspension spring eye may break, and allow the axle to slide back and forth.
The short version
Kaufman Trailers reported a problem with the axle non-powered axle assembly. Here is what owners need to know.
During use, the suspension spring eye may break, and allow the axle to slide back and forth.
If the axle is able to slide back and forth, the tires on the sliding axle can contact either the fender or the adjacent tire, adversely affecting handling and increasing the risk of a crash.
Kaufman Trailers of NC, Inc. will replace all springs on your trailer with a newly designed spring that has a thicker top leaf and rubber bushing with steel sleeve, free of charge.
