When we purchased our 172 it had an outstanding recall issue with the clearance lights [the spoiler and fender mounted ones]. The selling dealer fixed it but made an error that caused the system to short. I contacted the closest r-Pod dealer to see about attending to the issue. They said that they couldn't even look at it for almost a year, that is to say - pound salt. Thankfully, we were able to arrange a work around using a local independent shop ant the selling dealer paid to fix the mistake.
RV dealers are generally not helpful if they did not sell the trailer in my experience. Unfortunately, the manufactures could care less about securing the cooperation of their dealer networks for warranty and recall issues.

Forest River took care of the mirror recall and the black tank damage from the failed bracket all under warranty through a local dealer despite me buying elsewhere. Bravo to Forrest River!

I can't find any manufacturer markings on the stairs. I looked at all the stairs on etrailer and none match how they bolt to the Rpod frame and floor. Attached is a photo looking from rear to front of the bolt up needed. I had the same problem with the locking lever on the awning legs. The girl at the dealer showed me how. Like said above. Grab the lever with the palm of your hand close to the pivit point and push hard. It won't break. ![]() |

Your step is different than the one I had. I did not have the bolts going up to the floor of the trailer. There were two brackets and the steps bolted to those.
I hope you can find a double step that will fit.

Could be you need to reduce the size and are just seeing a small part that happens to be brown.
