2010 Mfi Bdmr & 2010 Mfi Bdpy + 5 more recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
Metal fabrication has notified NHTSA of a defect in certain model year 2010 boat trailers equipped with brake systems manufactured between august 11, 2009 and january 26, 2010 designed to haul recreational boats. The brake actuator on the tongue of the trailer CAN have a misaligned brake solenoid. If the solenoid is mis-aligned, then there is potential for interference between the solenoid and the actuator housing.
💥 The risk
Leakage of brake fluid and/or the presence of air in brake lines may cause the brakes to not operate as intended increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and test the brake system free of charge. The safety recall began on may 3, 2010. Owners may contact metal fabrication customer service at 931-962-0025.
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.)
