What's wrong?
The 2008-2010 Rogue T/A Trailer and S/A Trailer use a Fulton swing tongue unit at the front of the trailer. This assembly lets the trailer tongue pivot for storage while still locking straight for towing. The pivot bolt is the locking point that keeps the tongue aligned with the tow vehicle when the trailer and boat are moving.
On affected trailers, the pivot bolt in the 3x3-inch or 3x4-inch swing tongue unit can shear. When that bolt breaks, the tongue is no longer held in its normal towing position. The tongue can swing, and the trailer and boat can move forward into the towing vehicle.
There is no warning sign before failure. Treat any looseness, unusual movement at the tongue, or visible damage around the pivot area as a reason to stop towing and have the trailer inspected.
