Broken sway bar mount.

I'm reporting here as this should have been the correct category. Returned from my fourth trip today. When I stopped to disconnect the sway bar before backing into my parking place I found the bar hanging by the front mount. The mount on the trailer tongue was broken and pulled toward the front of the trailer. This is the eze? Sway bar that looks like brake pad material squeezing on a metal bar. Everything was new in Feb. PDI tech showed me how to tighten and I did exactly as he said. I was on a curvy mountain road but still don't think I should have removed the bar. The bar is mounted on the right so it would appear that it broke during a left turn. The bar doesn't appear to be overly extended. The trailer is the Flagstaff 25 ks with a dry weight of 4577. The pic shows the broken mount.

Wow, that isn't good. I would be sending this picture to the company and see what they will do for you.
