Towing my boat, with the trailer that came with it(ez looader vin# 1l8taape11a047078) when the drivers side leaf spring had a catastrophic failure, completely broke in half(all three of them at once) where the bolt goes though the middle of the spring.... this was an extremely dangerous situation and the only reason there wasn't a major accident was i was traveling at a very low speed (25mph).... i do have pictures if you would like them forwarded i have never received any recall notice from glastron or ez loader trailers..... |
