- Summary
- 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.
- Consequence
- Loss of braking can increase the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- 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.

Has your Alfa been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Alfa dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
