Replying to SPK boot issues (not a should i buy thread)

RtC.:

Now I had my SPKs for like 11days skiing at the end of last season and I'm not entirely happy with them. Just wanna know if this is normal.

First, I get huge movement from the liner in the shell.  Like i can fully move it from side to side and it's not my foot in the liner as they fit tighter than a tiger. Normal?

Seond, On one boot I've had the booster strap pop out of both rivets so am currently without a booster strap. Now i have tried pretty hard to put it back and get anywhere. Warranty issue/will they repair it for me?

Thirdly, two heel plates have fallen off/shattered on landing and when walking around. I don't undersatnd why this would happen twice, once could be forgivable.

Shall i just send the back to salomon?

Other than that they're sweet boots if they fit you proper.
