Defective Shimano????
2 reels broke within 1 week just setting the hook on specks (not big one's either). These are Shimano 2500FG spinning reels 13 monthe old, one month out of warranty. These are medium priced reels with what I believe is a factory aluminum cast problem. They broke in the exact same place!! Anyone experience this problem with Shimano spinning reels??? It will be interesting to see if Shimano covers this obvious defect. Thanks for your input.

I hear ya!
Purchased them at Cabala's. It's the principal, I really feel Shimano should do the right thing. Just waiting to hear from them.

i'll help
I agree, got to be a defective cast to break the same way on both. I'll help with a letter writing drive if they don't help you. As much money as I spend on thier stuff I should be part owner. Good luck. Buddy

I'll Help
Thanks East! I'm in no means bashing Shimano, as I must own at least 20 of their reels as well, with no problems. I'm really curious if they will help with these. I'll let you know their decision.

Return them to academy. If they sell them there they will let you exchange them. Just tell them you just got them a couple months ago and they broke.
