the passing motorist this could have resulted in a bad situation causing a fire or accident. The trailer is going into a frame shop on december 3, 2007 for further study and repair. This trailer is 6 years old and should not have this problem. I contacted the manufacturer and was told they do not have a frame problem and that I should contact my insurance company.
