The rod--actually probably an improperly sized spring--is transferring the impact force of slide from where it should be, to somewhere it shouldn't be (and never would be, with OEM spring & rod).
S&W should look at it, and put a bulletin out to their warranty repair shop.
You guys with the damage should file a small claims suit against whoever made replacement, for cost of a new frame. Blaming S&W for a bad aftermarket part is just wrong.
