⚠️ What's wrong

💥 The risk
This condition could result in a lack of braking on trailers hauling boats, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace these solenoid valves.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
