I have to agree that it is not a scam. But replacing a poorly designed dip stick with one that needs a new tube and has the same design flaws is just not responsible.
That plastic handle is for the birds! I have never burned my fingers with a metal handle that was an extension of the dip stick (all one piece). At least the manufacturer could have plastic coated the curved top, saved a lot of money in the cost to make it and still had it red.
Just a bad design and a bad follow up on customer complaints.
