Hello Josh; there have been no reports of the weld failing on the Thule Hitch Extender for 2" Receivers # TH55JV. Thule makes great products and thoroughly tests them so as long as you do not exceed the 250 lb capacity, or attempt to tow a trailer with the extender, it won't fail. It is also backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
