I've experienced just the opposite!  I had a C-3, then a C-4SXL, and 
I broke a couple of U-bolts and bolts.  I broke them.  Not Force-12, 
and not HRO (where I bought the antenna.)  I promptly received new 
replacement parts, and even some spares.  

I doubt whether they had many spares sitting around at Visalia.

The worst problem at Force-12 seems to be sporadic communications.  
I've had responses ranging from "instant" to "none" (or at least 
"long-delayed.")
