Is this damage worth reporting to Insurance?

In addition to what others have said I would call the Towbar company and let them know what happened if you hooked it up correctly I would think they have some responsibility in correcting the situation. Also check with your insurance company and see if you have in your policy a vanishing deductible. I was camping with my friend last week and his motorhome rolled forward into his trees in front and he thought he had $1000 deductible which he did but over time it went to zero when he had no accidents. The Insurance company will now cover the entire damage with no cost to him.

Wasn't the Towbars fault. As you can see the entire receiver came out of the Motorhome and the tow bar etc was still attached to the jeep...

Maybe I still don't understand what exactly happened but doesn't the hitch pin go through the Ready Break, and wasn't the hitch pin supplied by Ready Break which either broke or came loose?

No. The hitch pin was not supplied by Ready Brake as I bought this system used. It was a locking hitch pin that I had been using for a number of years without fail. Until it did fail on this particular day. Not Ready Brakes fault. It worked as it should.
