Re: Problems with my Curado K
Haha, I knew you were and I was just joking back. I didn't realize that my post looked like I dropped my whole reel in the water, but I just dropped my thumb bar cover in the water.DirtyD64 wrote:I'm sorry man, I was just kidding.

Re: Problems with my Curado K
They've supposedly changed the adhesive as Bantam mentioned, Shimano does great warranty work, sure they would help you.chillyredfishhunter wrote:Haha, I knew you were and I was just joking back.

Re: Problems with my Curado K
The new version does not use any adhesive. We can take care of the button for you. I have a few replacement pads that can be glued on. I can send one to you, or you can send the reel in for repair.

Mine popped off and fell off into the water this weekend. How can I get a new one?Bantam1 wrote:The new version does not use any adhesive. We can take care of the button for you. I have a few replacement pads that can be glued on. I can send one to you, or you can send the reel in for repair.

Re: Problems with my Curado K
this has happened to me three times so far on three different Curado K's (three different gear ratios). I had one fixed last spring and now am sending two more today. This is a very inconvenient issue that keeps happening, and I have 6 of them.Bantam1 wrote:We found a few that did not have enough glue on them. A 100% inspection has been performed and it was a really small amount, maybe 10 pieces that we found. You can send the reel in for repair and we will replace the clutch button under warranty.

Re: Problems with my Curado K
Did you purchase them all at the same time or near the same time? We made a running change pretty quickly, then changed it again.

Re: Problems with my Curado K
I honestly don't remember and really no way to tell exactly which three have had the issue, but to answer your question i purchased four last October and two in March. The two needing repair have gone out FedEx today for Friday arrival at Shimano Reel Repair, I hope it's a fast turn around!
Re: Problems with my Curado K
I'll check the date codes on the reels when they get here.

Re: Problems with my Curado K
I had my fixed K thumb bar come loose again so I put on a DC Curado thumb bar, funny thing is that the thumb bar painted colour corresponds to the handle and drag star - looks neat...
