Contract Manufacturer, LLC (CM Trailers) is recalling certain model year 2012 Cargo Van and Revolution trailers equipped with certain Hydrastar and Hydrastar XL trailer brake actuators produced from October 5, 2011, through December 9, 2011. One of the rotating components in the hydraulic pump missed a heat treat 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.
Safety 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.
Manufacturer remedy
CM Trailers will notify owners, and dealers will replace the hydraulic pumps, free of charge. The recall began on March 21, 2014. Owners may contact CM Trailers at 1-888-268-7577.
Contract Manufacturer, LLC (CM) is recalling certain model year 2006-2012 CM and S&H trailers equipped with Fastec-brand door locks. It may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
Safety risk
If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. A person inside the trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle, increasing the risk of injury.
Manufacturer remedy
CM will notify owners, and Fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. The recall began on January 21, 2014. Owners may contact CM Trailers at 1-888-268-7577 or Fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
