Have a 2016 Venture tandem axle trailer with disk brakes on both axles. Trailer was brand new when we bought the boat summer 2018. I do know the brakes were working last spring when we brought the boat home from storage (at least in reverse). Backing up my driveway the brakes were locking up and stopping me (separate issue that was fixed). I have a 2018 2500 Ram and boat/trailer combo weighs about 9000lbs. My coupler does slide and I have greased the fitting on the coupler. Just doesn't seem like my brakes are activating. Truck now has at least 1 warped rotor with only 15,000 miles on it. Checked the fluid level and it's good.
Anything else I should check? Verify the brakes are working? Ideas? Trailer has maybe 300-400 miles on it.
