2012 Bloomer Evolution recall: equipment

⚠️ What's wrong

Bloomer trailers manufacturing incorporated (bloomer) is recalling certain model year 2012 Evolution gooseneck trailers equipped with dexter 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.

💥 The 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.

🔧 The fix

Bloomer has notified all owners, and dexter has replaced the actuators, free of charge, therefore, an owner notification notice will not be issued for this campaign. Owners may contact bloomer trailers at 1-800-390-6377.

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.)
