⚠️ What's wrong

This pump may not have been properly heat treated. This condition CAN cause premature wear of some critical components in this pump which CAN render the unit inoperable.

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.
🔧 The fix
Cbgt will notify owners and dealers will replace the electric/hydraulic (e/h) brake actuator pumps, free of charge. Owners may contact custom built Gooseneck trailers, inc. At 1-903-383-2896.
