Yeha, Mine were shot at 15K , The alumnium wears on the part that is attached to the windsheild. Dealer covered it under warrentee. Had to replace both. The wind noise is anoying. A temprorary solution is to take 1/8" id vacuum hose and silp it over the hook, cut it off just before the end. This will take up the slop and act as a cushion.
