Only the 2 pegs closest to the door were misaligned.  I ground the top of the pegs down to the necessary level to allow installation of the shelf bracket.  I used a 4 1/2 in Milwaukee grinder used upside down.  Good tight fit now.  Other 2 options would have been to grind out the recieving hole on the bracket or trim the necessary metal off of the top of the bracket.  My front 2 were 1/4 inch out!  As you can see in the picture the rear one is untouched. It took 5 minutes.

Good luck.

Having read the posts and the work arounds, to include tilting the shelf support bracket 45 degrees to catch the front pegs, I would say the immediate problem (nuisance) is solved, and let Steve work on the long term quality control issue.  Good catch and fixes all.
