OK, got ya. I was looking at recent customers. Looks like you have it since October of 2021....sorry about that.
It sounds as though the wedge loosened up. I had our Part's Manager call our B&W Rep and he said that all hitch manufacturers put a disclaimer about aftermarket wedges. He said there is nothing on the hitch that will not function correctly when using it.
If you have any further questions or issues, please call in to our Service department and they can help you out.Steve- Inventory Manager at Tom Schaeffer's RV, Shoemakersville, PA www.tomschaeffers.com

Here is the link to the 18k Patriot
https://www.bwtrailerhitches.com/sit...structions.pdf
WARNING: Towing a trailer without a functioning pivot point between the hitch & trailer will cause significant damage to the hitch which may lead to serious injury or death. Some pin boxes such as a Pull−rite® Superglide Capture Plate remove the pivot point between a trailer and coupler and should not be used, See Figure F1. Pin boxes with a wedge that relocates the pivot point such as a Reese® Sidewinder or Reese® Revolution may be used, see Figure F2.
Sorry I couldn’t paste figure 2 but the Reese Sidewider functions similar to the turning point. Which is an acceptable setup for the Patriot.Last edited by traveldawg; 04-03-2023 at 02:34 PM. Reason: released from moderation - it goes there for new users who post URLs...

@Laffofpa
OK - It's good to know you folks follow up with your customers. Most dealer probably would not. I still believe he should lock it out and tow normally until the hitch can be examined. I am guessing here, but based on the issues the hitch head may be gouged up. Maybe the OP can take a picture or two of the hitch head and the wedge. With his Ford and the hitch head set back I believe he will be fine towing - others with that set up have done fine.
BTW did you set him up with the correct wedge, or just use the OEM?
Per this https://lci-support-doc.s3.amazonaws...cd-0001724.pdf
He should be using the Reese SWW-06
https://www.amazon.com/Reese-SWW-06-.../dp/B004R369I8
I just want the OP to be safe and not damage the excellent hitch he has if he wished to continue use of the Turning Point.
On edit
If you did not provide the correct wedge I believe you owe it to him to get him the correct one and be responsible.Last edited by powerscol; 04-03-2023 at 08:42 AM.
