Sorry to hear about your bad luck hammer. Part of the problem with US built trailers is they don't have to have a National Safety Mark so when they send their junk up here there is no accountability. If they were a Canadian company you would have recourse with transport Canada. As a Canadian trailer manufsxturer I am fully responsible for anything we put on the road and we do our due diligence because if someone gets killed our company is liable. Another issue with the trailer industry is its an industry where these manufacturers try and be as cheap as possible. I could build you a boat trailer but it's going to be double the price. Why, because it's properly built, properly painted, and it's built by a journeyman welder, not a $10 hr Mexican. All our designs are reviewed by an engineer as well. So unless guys wants something really custom I tell them to go to a trailer lot and buy something because I can't do it for the same price as Big Tex or DCT. Lots of our customers are guys who have owned 3 or 4 trailers and are tired of junk. I would still tell you to document and report the issue to Transport Canada if you want a contact there let me know.
