Product description
Boat trailer
Reasons the product is recalled
Some of these trailers may be equipped with Carlisle's Hydrastar or Hydrastar XL brake actuators, which are subject to wear at a higher than normal rate. As the component wears, the load on the electric motor increases until either the fuse that protects the motor fails or the motor itself fails.
The hazards to consumers
A loss of trailer braking may occur, increasing the risk of a crash.
What consumers should do
Check the serial number on the brake actuator on the trailer to see if the actuator fits within the range of actuators recalled by Carlisle Brake and Friction Company. The actuator's serial number is located on the end of the actuator unit. If your Magic Tilt trailer does have one of the recalled actuators, contact Magic Tilt to arrange for a replacement of the actuator.
