They trailer hitch that I have used with this travel trailer has begun to fail. The head tilt spacers are beginning to elongate and will reach failure with continued use. The manufacturer indicated that this would be caused by overloading or a sharp turn, but neither of those events have happened. Luckily I caught the dialing part when I did, if the spacers would have failed the entire hitch could have failed. An internet search indicates that this premature failure is a known and common problem.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
