Read your owners manual but it sounds like your trailer tongue weight might be too high.

I have the same , make sure the engine run before you lower your fifth wheel weight in the box, if it does stop just give it 5 minutes and it will level again , seem like the weight sensor is a bit sensitive , after 2 years of loading it only happen twicw , let the engine run abit.
