You did not specifically indicate if your machine is still under warranty. If the rollers are/were defective, I am sure that Melco will replace them....give them a call and explain the situation to them.. I have seen some of the centers fractured. This can happen when the rollers are popped back in place and too much pressure is applied. Rollers that are kept properly lubricated come off much eaiser than those that are not and could cause the breakage you are seeing. If the roller hangs up or drags because of the lack of lubrication, the clips could bind and break as the roller turns...
