NOTICED THAT WHILE TOWING THE TRAILER THAT THE FRAME SEEMED TO FLEX AT THE FRONT, PUSHING THE KINGPIN UP INTO THE TRAILER, YOU CAN WATCH THE TRAILER FLEXING UP AND DOWN ON THE KINGPIN WHILE TRAVELING.

WE FOUND MANY OF THE SCREWS HOLDING THE ALUMINUM ONTO THE FRAME UNDERNEATH HAD RIPPED THROUGH THE ALUMINUM FROM THE FLEXING, AND SOME OF THE ALUMINUM STARTED SEPARATING AT THE JOINTS. …

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.

Equal-age model-year comparison

Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
