There were reports of some of the aluminum versions failing while towing FWs near their limit and with emergency stops. There was one member who posted pics of his that deformed, but stayed whole. Andersen stepped up and replaced it with a re-engineered hitch. They were also swapping out others that requested to do so, IIRC. Personally, I still love my B&W Companion. :-)
