Upgrade came early!!
Well after multiple attempts to try to get my steps issue resolved and it never did while unit was under warranty, dealer couldn't duplicate my concern, my concern was that the steps do what they want when they want!! Always have!! SINCE the day I bought it! Well after 12K miles, it's no longer an issue, I get to now upgrade!!Click image for larger version Name: ImageUploadedByForest River Forums1426551048.236646.jpg Views: 312 Size: 82.5 KB ID: 71485Click image for larger version Name: ImageUploadedByForest River Forums1426551070.066720.jpg Views: 296 Size: 86.8 KB ID: 71486Click image for larger version Name: ImageUploadedByForest River Forums1426551082.901084.jpg Views: 300 Size: 80.8 KB ID: 71487

Ehh, you ok? Came across this thread and noticed you were talking to yourself. 😳

I believe there have been several posts on the site of people having trouble with their lipert steps and switched to kwikee steps. I would read through those.

From your pics, they deployed as you were pulling out?
Wow!

Yes I would check your local dealers and camping world for cost since non warranty.

Steps
I purchased a set of steps from PPL RV Parts a while back. They were the cheapest price on name brand replacement steps.

Good luck!

Thanks for the input guys!! Right now, I'm trying to straighten out the bends and see if I can salvage anything before I pony up the money...
