Hello fellow campers;

I was wondering if anyone has ever had a problem with their slide stops? Mine was pulled into the hole in the frame and become lodged in the frame. I did not hear any "snap, crackles, or pops when it was brought in, however, the next time I went to use it, only could get rattle of the motor attempting to take the slide out. Manual process would not work and ended up breaking the manual rod off from the motor.

Dealership indicted they had to cut the bell housing apart to remove it from the frame.

Just wanted to see how uncommon this was, or if I was the only lucky one who this has happened to.

Sorry you had problems. Never heard this one before, but then again there is a lot of parts that can go wrong. Had a slide that didn't want to go in but after a big kick with my foot it works fine now

I had a problem once when I tried to open the slide. The motor clicked but would not move the slide. I ran it out a few inches manually and then tried the button again and it worked. I adjusted the slide in stop and no problems since.
