Upon reading the recall notice and inspecting the swing I found that the cross beams are lierally rotting from the inside. Enclosed in a vinyl cover has allowed moisture to be trapped causing the beam to remain wet and to rot prematurely. The cross beams are currently bent down in what I would call a swag in the middle. The overall problem is not one of hardware but one of poor design by covering the wood in vinyl, trapping water, causing them to rot over a short period of time. This rotting will also eventually cause the four main support post of the tree house to rot and again cause a future safety hazard. This total design needs to be reevaluated and if need be, a total recall of the whole swingset should be concidered with a new replacement or refund of money spent.

I have the Dakota Playset Model 1-AP046? I have checked the playset that I have and find that on various parts it's weakened but I haven't allowed anyone to put any weight on these particular areas. Please let me know how to get this replacement. Thank you for your time and notification of this problem. Charles Dartez Where and how do I get a replacement on my playset.
