Here's my question.  Anyone else seen this happen?  Any suggestions about

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, this happened to anyone who bought the first round of these sets (8445,
8446, and 8448) because the first round of the hydraulic cylinders was
defective. All I had to do was write to Consumer Affairs describing the
problem, and they sent the replacement cylinders free of charge, a letter
apologizing and describing the problem with the first round of production, and
a JiffyPak envelope to send back the defective ones so they could analyze them
along with the thousands, maybe millions of other defective ones.

Apparently, they're done analyzing.  My replacements arrived today, and Susan
Williams didn't ask me to send back the broken ones.
