Thanks for all the replies - appreciate the concern.
I've been towing - pop-up and now my car - for years, first time anything like this has happened. A little unnerving!
I'm also trying to figure out why the NSA (NOT Blue Ox as stated above) safety cable broke - my car is about 3300lbs and the cables are each rated for 4000lbs, I think...
NSA safety cables
I will definitely make a hitch pin change and will find a way to lock it up. This one was purchased at either Home Depot or WalMart - don't remember the specific brand.
Appreciate the suggestions!
While your car may weigh 3300 lbs, the stress on those cables will exceed that easily under the right circumstances. Chuck
