Query: Plastic pieces in my food

I purchased the DLC-8S in September 2009 and have had trouble with the work bowl since the first use. The bowl started cracking and crazing within a month. Eventually those parts weakened to the point that plastic pieces started breaking off. I had not kept the receipt as this model replaced a smaller Cuisinart that I inherited from my grandmother (product was 20 years old)that I was in love with. I, however, needed a larger bowl. I didn't think I would need the receipt. So I kept using the product since I couldn't return it. Yesterday, the plastic "pin" piece that locks the bowl in place broke in half. I cannot turn the product on any longer. I contacted the company and they will send me a new bowl for $30 plus dollars. I will never purchase a Cuisinart product again.
