I have yet to see or hear of any comments from Lionel - very disappointing to say the least! As for fixes:
1: Return the cars to Lionel
2: Purchase new trucks at a cost of upwards of $30!
3. Take a file or Dremel tool and modify the coupler so that it works with existing Lionel cars, however that does not fix the truck issue.
Good Luck
You can install Kadee which I did but doesn't address the trucks which I'll leave as is. No more cars until this is addressed.
