Recall a bike lift? WTF, how are you supposed to get it back to the store, or will HF come and get it, fix it, then bring it back to you? The tubing or the welds may break? Again, WTF? Poor quality build, or simple design error, was under-built? If I had a welding machine, I'd fix my own, if I had a lift. I know how to weld, but don't have a machine. I wonder if a bronze braze would work? Seems like HF would have spotted this before now. I worked as a fabricator, doing X-ray quality work, for some years, and I can't stop myself when I see welding work, I inspect it. Much of it fails. After I transitioned into technical documentation, I saw a lot of crappy welding work come out of China, and always drew it to the attention of the QA department of wherever I was working. In any instance of risk of injury or death, such as safety equipment, the company always complained to the provider.
