Hi all-
Have a great 2015 Hawk bumper pull straight load. Great trailer, love it. However..
Our back top doors fly open very easily. When on bumpy roads or going over 70 the left door always manages to jostle open. We’ve started keeping them open while trailering cause otherwise they flap around and bang on the trailer on the highway, and are a road hazard. Anyone else had this issue ever?? Not a fan of trailering with them open but don’t really have a choice. Taking in to get checked/repaired but has anyone else experienced this?

Hi,
I have a 2 horse hawk bumper pull with the exact same issue. The top doors have the round stainless steel cam latches. When I drive on bumpy roads or higher speeds, they open on their own due to vibration. I have been keeping them clipped open while trailering my horse but I need to find a better solution. I did contact the Hawk dealer where I purchased the trailer and they had not seen the issue so I thought it was just a flaw with mine.
