New oem drive shaft broke the U joint

Well basically the title says it all. I was getting a new driveshaft on a TSB under warranty. They have been on back order for three months. Finally got the new one in and took it to the stealership. They installed the new one and didn't even get out of the parking lot when this happened. My Question is has this happened to anybody else or am I the one in a million? now I have to wait ...again.

 

yikes...

manual or auto trans??

 

Dant it dude, that really blows big time.

What were the driving conditions when it snapped???

 

Auto trans

 

pulling it off the lift for a test drive....it broke in the dealer parking lot.

 

WTH man, sheesh. Thats really not cool at all

 

Looks like what happened to @SMKYTXN

But he busted his going up a trail

 

yea it sucks ...but its best it did It there instead of doing 70 down the highway.

 

Well good news. New drive shaft is in, going to be installed next week. Wish me luck...hahah

 

Over the years I have found lots of "new" parts to be broken or defective right out of the box. It's not even close to one in a million. Among them: throw out bearings, ignition switches, MAF sensors, U-joints, thermostats.....I always try to inspect or test what I can before installing. I once bought 3 thermostats from NAPA before getting one that opened at the right temp. I once pulled a cap off a new Spicer u-joint to find that one side of the post was unmachined.
