I had the coupler checked at the local RV shop and they said it was fine .
Being paranoid I don’t have a lot of faith / confidence in our Ram coupler
I still don’t know for sure if this was a mechanical issue or human error
I did install a new latch pin and latch spring , so far so good .

When you say "plate that goes around the ball"- do you mean the yoke? If so this is the only other instance I've heard happen other than mine which happened about 4-5 times before I replaced the RAM coupler.
Also, what is the "latch spring"?
