- On certain fifth wheel trailers equipped with dexter axles, the disc brake caliper mounting bolts may strip. Insufficient clamp load between caliper and yoke can cause the caliper to disassemble and adversely affect the trailers braking system.
- The risk
- LOSS OF BRAKING CAN INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH.
- The fix
- Dexter has modified the remedy for these vehicles (please see 06e029). All trailers were corrected at the manufacturing plant. For more information you may contact dexter axle at 1-800-400-2164 or alfa leisure at 1-800-373-3372.
