Do the older tires on the other side have that same look? If so, then it may just be a matter of discoloration due to aging.

I’m wondering if your wheel overheated and in turn overheated the tire. Does it look the same on the back side? Brake dragging? Bad bearing? I would be inclined to take the trailer out for a few...

Personal opinion is if it were me I would look at newer rather than new. Maybe something up to 2016-2018. Most likely that any major items such as frame flex have already been discovered (and...

I really can’t help other than to say to get a firm commitment in writing as to how long they would keep your trailer. Some on here have reported dealers taking months to complete some repairs.

I agree with BC. You don’t want to cut the threads any further. Just snug the tap in and out a few times to clean the surface of the threads.

There have been several posts about those trailer connectors overheating due to poor wire connections on the back side. Definitely pull that connector and check it. And probably plan on replacing it.
