EZ Loader T102 Problems by year

vehicle where they are attached. Once the coupler failed the fish tailing sheared the cables at the U shaped guide. Boat is now no longer attached to the tow vehicle in any way at 45 mph on a Sat afternoon in heavy traffic. Fortunately, the highway started going down grade. By slowing down gradually I was able to keep the boat behind me, while it was slamming into my trucks tailgate, until I came to a stop. This is a life-threatening situation with all kinds of possible scenarios. Trailer was purchased new by me. I returned trailer to the dealer where purchased. Coupler was removed and sent to Dexter the manufacturer. Dexter claims there is nothing wrong with it and is ignoring why it failed instead of looking into why it did. I have the coupler and concrete proof why it failed and want to share this information with the NHSTA. In addition the trailer manufacturer EZ Loader is ignoring the fact that the safety cables are inadequate and failed as well. There are a ton of these out there on the highway. Just a matter of time before something really bad happens. At a minimum the cable design needs to be improved. EZ Loader is no longer using that coupler. EZ Loader sent me identical safety cables to replace the failed ones. Due to the extremely high odds of this incident both suppliers are not concerned to any degree. The trailer seller is very concerned and is working with me in a positive way.

are being paired together at factory and in fact the 5200 is heavily recommended when purchasing. As it is delivered and leaving the dealership the end of propellor is approximately 8 feet from rear taillight. This is another safety issue from overhang. I did not figure this out until someone told me I needed flagging at day time and lighting at night near propellor for safety (see attached picture). I am not only person experiencing this. I am respectfully requesting nhsta review my concerns. http://www.ezloader.com/images/pdf/adj-trailer-specifications.pdf https://www.northriverboats.com/wp-content/uploads/nrb-pdf/2023MY/25'%20Seahawk%202023%20Standard%20Features.pdf The consumer has stated that the issue has been resolved.
