Defect description

Texas Pride Trailers (Texas Pride) is recalling certain model year 2012 DTFLB trailers, equipped with Dexter Axle brand electric/hydraulic (E/H) brake actuator pumps. Some of these pumps may not have been properly heat treated. This condition can cause premature wear of some critical components in these pumps which can render the unit inoperable.

Safety risk

The E/H brake actuator provides braking power to the trailer brakes. Failure of the actuator can result in the loss of braking effort by the trailer, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

Texas Pride will notify owners, and Dexter Axle dealers will replace the actuators, free of charge. The safety recall began on July 17, 2012. Owners may contact Texas Pride Trailers at 1-936-349-6038, or Dexter Axle at 1-800-400-2164.
