Towing my boat, with the trailer that came with it(ez looader VIN# [xxx]) 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..... Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Suspension: front: springs: leaf spring assembly
- What is wrong
- On certain boat trailers equipped with a mono-leaf based suspension system, the mounting hardware could loosen allowing the spring to flex at the apex of its radius, and at a point where there is a mounting index hole.
- Risk
- This flexing could lead to premature failure of the spring allowing the trailer to sag on one or both sides, causing tires to rub against the fender and mis-align the wheels.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the mono-leaf spring based suspension system with a multi-leaf spring based suspension system. Owner notification began october 15, 2003. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact ez loader at 1‑509‑489‑0181.
