What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Plain-English summary

Loadmaster Trailer Company, Ltd. is recalling certain model year 2010 boat trailers manufactured between September 10, 2010, and October 16, 2010. The affected models include the 290T615OB, 250T615CB, 290T615NB, 340R615CB, 300R615CB, 210S615CB, 320R615CB, 340R615SB, and 200S615NB. These specific trailers are equipped with Tredit Tire 15" painted wheels, models Spoke or Mod.

The recall is issued because some of the wheels, which fasten to the axle and serve as a mounting point for tires, could contain mis-aligned welds. This defect could cause the wheels to break while in use, which increases the risk of a crash.

Loadmaster will notify owners and repair the boat trailers free of charge. The safety recall began on January 3, 2011. Owners may contact Loadmaster at 1-419-732-3434. 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 visit safercar.gov.
