DT: 2005 LOADMAX TANDEM GOOSENECK TRAILER. THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINE IS RIGHT ABOVE THE AXLE AND WHEN THE AXLE COMES UP IT SMASHES THE BRAKE LINE. THE CONSUMER CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER, AND THEY REPLACE THE FIRST TRAILER BECAUSE IT WAS NOT MANUFACTURED THE WAY THE CONSUMER ORDERED IT. THE FIRST TRAILER HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS HAS NOT CAUSED ANY ACCIDENTS, BUT HE DID ALMOST REAR END A SEMI-TRUCK. THE CONSUMER NOTICED THE LOAD WAS PUSHING FROM BEHIND. *AK
