    I purchased a new Quest Primal 20 months ago. In that time, I have replaced the cables 3 times, the entire I guide & post assembly and 1 string.
    The first cables went as a result of the serving unraveling at the cams. 2nd set as a result of the I guide post backing out of the riser causing heavy wear on the cables where they run through the guide.
    Now the third set is wearing badly where they travel through the guide after less than 300 arrows and the guide post is not moving at all. Feels like driving a truck over a gravel road when you draw it.
    I keep the string and cables well waxed.
    2 different shops performed the warranty work.
    Quest has always taken care of the issue, but I am very tired of all the logistics involved in getting the cables replaced and all the re-zeroing of all the components.

    I have a set of winners choice string and cables on hand.
    Trying to decide whether to put them on and see what happens, or just get rid of the bow and cut my losses.

    I really like the way the bow shoots, but if it won't hold together, what good is it.

    Just plain tired of the fight.

    Open to all opinions and suggestions.
