Honestly don't know the problem but most all beds with damage I have seen have this type of handle on the hitch.
I said without issue, but over the years I did have a few times that it failed a pull test or visual inspection. Once the disk slipped and the teeth bent down keeping the pin from fully seating. Other times just try again. But we never had a drop.
Once we made the choice to get the factory mounting pucks in the new truck. Getting the B&W was a done deal. And a choice I am quite glad we made.
Do you do a pull test with the B&W now that you have used it a few times?
I have not done so for at least 10 years.
Look at Jaws closed around kingpin handle locked not going to fall.
