Anyone else find that new Megaflo's now come with leaking immersion heaters?

Our last two installations had leaking immersion heaters which needed tightening - no really an issue, but just an observation and something to remember to check!
I appreciate they can loosen in transit and admittedly this is mentioned in the MI, but it never used to happen. Is this just a coincidence, or have I been unlucky or is the the new standard?

Anyone else come across this recently?
 
Had two direct units with leaking immersions. As you say no sweat, but aggro all the same. One of the units is just over a year old and has had three new immersions already

Three in a year is worrying! Even if it's covered by warranty, it doesn't inspire confidence for the customer.
