Save a couple pennies here and there and dump the repair on the dealers who are less than equiped to deal with the inadequacies of the design / factory screw ups.
Their biggest problem is drilling thru metal with self drilling screws then into wood. The problem is that type screw destroys the integrity of the wood.

Perfect example is the bedroom slide fiasco.
