Well, here is your problem.... you need a new water pump. The check valve in your water pump that prevent water from the city hook up side is bad. Water is back flowing from the city water side to the tank. Once the tank is full the water is then flowing out the freshwater tank over flow. Changing the pump out will fix the problem.

If your trailer is the 2018 sport you have in you discrption then it should be covered under warranty.

If its warranty, fine. If not disassembly and cleaning the crud out of the check valve usually fixes. Probably a small piece of tank shaving has gotten past the strainer.
