Has anyone had trouble with the passengers seats electric foot rest.

We have a 2008 Tour master T40A. The passengers seat came with an electric foot rest, which we paid extra for. The first day out the foot rest stoped working. It was only trying to go up and down from one side. The arms got bent on the side that was not working. I looked underneath and found the cables from the motor went into a worm gear and the cable fell out of the side that was not working. While working on this the other side fell out. I jury rigged two clamps, one for each side and got it working. They replaced the entire seaqt and the same think happened on the first time we used it. Has anyone else had this problem. I am going to bring it in for service again. It seems to me to be a poor design.
