Infact
I've begun to see this happen with american front loaders maytags maxima , whirlpool duet etc. Same thing in the picture, not as badly destroyed but still the drum was split. Some people say this is more prone on the new duets with the spiral embossed drums. However, All the reports of the maxima's exploding had the non emobbosed and spiralled drums. I'm fairly concerened with this happening with our new duet.
Here are some i found:

UPDATE:
Most recent is the new (this may scare you) Maytag XL series. This kinda looks like they didn't remove the shipping bolts. But my duet has NEVER come even close to doing this.
