Personally, I would not turn in a tank that I knew was defective. You might take your old tank to a propane dealer and see if they could repair the old tank. To me, turning in a defective tank is the same as lying and cheating.
I certainly respect your position and commend you for your ethics. That sort of thing is so rare anymore.
Rest assured it isn't a problem. I managed a couple of ACE Hardwares that sold Blue Rhino refilled cylinders. In their literature they told retailers the only thing we shouldn't accept is deep rust pitting or dents. Bad or outdated vavles and anything else seemed to be fine as none of that was addressed and we never got any grief for taking them in.

I would agree with Scott, had an older tank that I was trying to get re-certified at a propane dealer, I could buy a new tank from them, or a exchange tank which was also new and filled with 4 gallons of propane. I could also have the exchange tank topped off for the cost of a gallon of propane. Choice was simple.
