Never had a disaster, but have had them pop on a rotary cutter a few times that tilted the cutter enormously and messed up the ground. I always carry extras and was able to put one on and continue. Lost one on a box blade once that carved up my road, but it was fixable. Biggest problem I have is getting them in in the first place. My equipment is on uneven ground sometimes and getting it hooked up requires repeats and levers to engage so I can even put the pins in. But I like the washer idea and will try it shortly.
