Default Flex-A-Lite Recalling Fuse Holders

I had my second maxi fuse holder melt down today. I had got a ride to an audio shop and got running again.
Called FAL and was asked if I had received my recall letter yet. I had not. He said it's according to where I made the purchase, when I will get my letter due the they are working down a list. He is shipping mine today. They are going to a different type.

Mine are the 282's on an 03 Z71 with the second version VSC and the fuse holder was supposed the be the second run improved model.

I'm scared to even look at mine, it might decide to melt down. So far no problems with it for a LONG time now.(knocks on wood)

I got mine in last week. I noticed the new fuse is 30 amps now as opposed to the older 40 amp.
