Thanks Chuck,

Two questions -

1) Did yours have the problem ?

2) If so, How did they fix it ?

Mine definitely has the problem - I talked with my dealer today and he has 
not heard anything about it. Did your dealer discover the problem or were 
they contacted in some way by ToA? My dealer is going to call ToA on 
Tuesday to see if he can get more info, so in the meantime I just added a 
piece of rubber between the two lines to prevent and further chaffing.

Thanks again for the info
