potential door lock bolt breakage?

[chriscowles]

In an attempt to answer this question, I've searched using different terminology without success. I hope someone can help me with the answer.

I recall reading about a problem with some door locks where the bolt is made of zinc and breaks off in the lock. The result is a non-functional door lock, in the bolted position, with the owner locked inside.

My vague recall is that the issue affects the type of lock on the door of my 2020 MY Mini-Lite, and that the manufacturer offers a steel bolt as a replacement. (FR could have purchased the steel-bolt version but opted for the cheaper version.)

If my memory of the details is correct, can someone tell me where to obtain the replacement bolt?

Thanks

Mine just broke today. On a class c.

I would contact FR and get that information from them.

I ran across the topic I recalled hearing about. I already forgot who the manufacturer was because the steel part to replace the zinc part cost $140. No, thanks. I'll upgrade to a combination before I pay that to get no improvement except maybe it won't break, if it was even going to, in the first place.
