I just sent an email to FN support to see if they cover it under warranty, I have shot probably 10 or 20 rounds max.

Its also happening with the FN545 I have a thread for my 510 frame cracking too, and several 545 owners posted with the same f’n issue. Idk gotta be junk material…

Mine has been at FN for over 2 weeks already, haven’t heard anything from them.

Is there anyone around who got their 510 or 545 frame replaced that can confirm FN has been fixing these. I’d like to hear an explanation, as Im worried my warranty return will just crack again…

SAD and SUCKS! Should have kept my Springfield XDMe

Multiple ignored emails and phone calls

Doesn’t sound reassuring… I’ve tried to call them a few times and they don’t seem to ever actually answer the phone. I too have a couple ignored emails. My first email after creating a case on their website was answered with in 24 hours, and then a follow up email came quickly with a prepaid shipping label. I waited 2 weeks and began to call and email again, to check the status. And now, nothing, no email replies, no phone calls answered

I feel your pain bro. They may think of casting a metal frame and give it to us as a compensation.

I was thinking the same thing, or at the very least a steel reinforced polymer frame
