Turbo overboosting

Was on the turnpike pulling my 8k 5th wheel camper running 70mph driving right into a strong wind, when the truck would downshift to get more power for a incline turbo would boost up to 30 and then kick out throw PT0427 wich on my edge insight tells me that turbos overboosting. Got off an exit shut truck off and started back up ran fine 3hrs later did it again. drove another 400 miles still hauling never did it again. Are the vains getting bad and need cleaned? Do i have a sensor thats just going bad? Truck is stock except straight 4inch exhaust
