Thanks for the info! I make sure not to overtighten when installing, just because I know they are ceramic. I never had this much of a problem in the past. It just seems more and more manufacturers are more worried about their profit margin than the quality of the product. Replacing with substandard materials that are cheaper so they can get a bigger dividend check. Then as soon as the word gets out they suck, they change the product name and start all over again. Just to get a replacement is getting old. Sorry for rambling. I think I will stick with the people from the "good guys" section of this forum from now on.
