Lee Auto-Prime XR Trouble-recall?

I have had trouble with my Lee Auto-Prime XR for some time. Aside from spilling primers out the ready chute, the plastic primer cover was coming loose at the ready station mouth.
Closer inspection revealed that the two "tits", on the clear cover that engage the main body, were broken off.
I got on the Leeprecision.com web site looking for the part number so to hasten repair.
I found out that Lee has improved the trays and covers and is offering free replacement of these parts. You can no longer drop primers on the floor from the ready station. Just send your trays and covers to Lee and they will send you the new parts. My turn around time was about 7 days. Happy with the fix!
