Two things stand out. 1st, the plate and the tongue move as one. So any scratches would be from something else. The plate doesn't rotate under the bottom of the tongue. The whole setup is based on friction. The friction is from the shaft of the ball rubbing inside it's housing.
2nd, it looks like grease on the outside of the base of the ball where it enters the housing. I hope there's no grease inside that housing as it's lined with brake pad material to create friction.
I would get someone to watch the WD while it's turning to see exactly what's going on.
I put my money on the dealer messing up with his forklift.
