Do you have your trailer inspected? I'm overdue on my VA state inspection, but haven't taken the trailer out yet this year.
I'd hope they'd catch something like that, neglecting the general futility of the inspection regime to do anything between inspections. I was busted last year for having a DIY breakaway cable (original rusted through) and forced to buy an OEM replacement. Apparently I chew up breakaway cables as shortly after my DIY (yeah, went back to it) broke between the hitch and a rock I hit backing, then the 2nd OEM one is half rusted through all in one season.
