I've heard from several different research operations and other companies
that are stopping use of the MK20 and switching to the MK25 because the
first stage split in half. It seems to be a very real problem that wasn't
just an issolated incident.

I called ScubaPro yesterday and the technician said that they have
replacement parts that are available but that they are not planning any
recall. Since I've got a Mark-20, I'm going to get my shop to order and
replace the parts.
