## Narrative
The Kingpin ripped away from the pinbox on our 5th wheel.  We were told by some that it appears to be inferior material and/or poor weld.  Our truck almost flipped down the hill where our rv landed.  Others could have been injured or killed had the RV gone a different direction.  I have contacted the RV manufacturer and currently awaiting a response. No warnings.  Police and tow drivers said they have never seen this in over 50 years of service.  Photos available.
