I solved this problem by taking a 1"x6", vertically fastening it to the right side of the inside clothes closet with a hole in the top to bear the weight of the clothes rod, shape the top of the board to fit the closet upper curvature, making sure that the 1"x6" point load was firmly set on the closet floor. My wifes extensive wardrobe [LOL] & who knows what she puts on the shelves is now supported !!

We have the 13 3402 same problem, same fix .We also replaced the puny staples with screws .That entire assembly failed on our first road trip.
