- Summary
- 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.
- Remedy
- 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 administrations vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to http://www.safercar.gov.

Has your Bloomer 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 Bloomer dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
