We had the same thing happen on our 2017 12SC. The bad part about the situation is my wife was traveling by herself because I was trapped south due to severe weather. It was not until she pulled into the campsite that she was notified. Having referenced a good tool list from the forums prior to departing on our first trip, it enabled my wife to remove the bracket on her own.
My dealer handled the repair under warranty but refused to replace my tire due to the flat spot not being large enough. I will be handling the matter directly with Jayco when get back from our two week Utah trip. The dealer said it was a problem they have frequently seen and they say it is due to no bracing being applied to the backside of the bracket from the factory. It is a QC problem on the Jayco side but something that the dealer should look for since it is known problem.
