What is the name of your state? Montana
I was pulling a trailer with a heavy load of dirt in the city, the truck was stopping the trailer at intersections, then a bit of rain started making the roads slick. Approaching a stop light I applied brakes but the front tires locked up and slid. I was not getting enough braking power from my trailer brakes. The trailer pushed me down the road until I collided with a vehicle stopped at a red light. On purchasing a new vehicle I hooked up the trailer still full of dirt and tested the brakes to determine if there were any. The brakes did not operate as they should providing braking but not enough. I phoned the dealer to get them fixed and was told there was nothing wrong with my brakes as they are all checked and adjusted during the PDI. In the end I found out that the trailer did not have this inspection, this inspection was done about two weeks after the accident. The brakes were adjusted and I now have brakes. Do I have a case and if so what course of action should I take?
Thanks,
Crash
