Anyone have an idea how to find out if your trailer falls into this recall? Thanks for the post Jim.

Mine was recalled for the bad weld on the spindle. They sent me a letter to tow it back to the dealer I bought it from in California, however the boat has always lived in Lake Havasu AZ since new. After many conversations on the phone explaining that would be a 350 mile tow in 100 degree temps they agreed with me that would not be wise. They sent the replacement axles to a repair shop localy and covered everything. The only complaint I had was the replacement axles were not painted the same color as the rest of the trailer.

Probably have to call in to FW Customer Service -(231) 775-1343 9-5 ET M-F. I'd suggest having the Trailer VIN # handy. Bet there's an email address for them around someplace too.
