I could fill the screen with weak points on various cars that were addressed / revised later - and I don't recall anyone getting free stuff.

The only thing that possibly comes to mind is the Tamiya Jugg - it was apparently horrificly weak and was quickly replaced by the Jugg2, and all Jugg owners got a free upgrade kit afaik.
I don't remember Tamiya giving me a revised camber mount for my 501X when they revised it because it was weak though? Or giving out the grey ball cups because the kit ones are crap - or giving TRF511 owners replacement ball studs because they were crap, or giving 501X owners new wheels because the front ones were crap. Etc etc, so maybe the Jugg was a one off?
IIRC, Xray did send out update packs to all the T2008 owners (think it was that one) cos it was rubbish
