2012 BLOOMER EVOLUTION Recalls (2)
- Campaign:
- 12V182000 on 04/24/2012
- Component:
- Equipment
- Affected:
- 23
- Defect:
- 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.
- Consequence:
- 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.
- Correction:
- 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.
- Notes:
- Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.
- Campaign:
- 13V444000 on 10/17/2013
- Component:
- Latches/locks/linkages
- Manufactured:
- 12/31/2005 - 04/29/2013
- Affected:

- Defect:
- Bloomer trailers is recalling certain model year 2006-2013 recreational trailers manufactured january 1, 2006, through april 25, 2013 and equipped with fastec-brand door locks. it may be possible to remove the key from the lock in a way that potentially jams the deadbolt.
- Consequence:
- If the deadbolt jams, the interior side of the door lock may also jam. a person inside the trailer at the time will then be locked in and be unable to exit the vehicle without using the emergency exit, increasing the risk of injury.
- Correction:
- Bloomer trailers will notify owners, and fastec will coordinate the inspection and replacement of the cylinders, as needed, free of charge. the manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. owners may contact bloomer trailers at 1-800-390-6377 or fastec at 1-800-837-2505.
