Hell yes I have an issue with mine. I own two 97 850 wagons. If you try to use that damned jack on soft ground, what it will do is slowly kick out from under the car and let the car down onto the threaded portion of the jack, scarring or cracking the plastic door channel. It did it on both of my 97's. What a worthless piece of crap. No, I don't know if there is a carry-round replacement. Apparently your only option is a roll-around floor jack, which won't help you much out in the boonies. Dick
