## Discrepancy

SEVERAL INDUCTION AIR FILTERS SPLIT DOWN THE SEAM.  RECENTLY STARTED HAPPENING WHERE AS THEY WERE NEVER SEEN IN THE PAST.  SUSPECT POSSIBLE BAD BATCH OF FILTERS.  WHEN THE FILTER IS SPLIT IT ALLOWS FREE INGESTION OF DIRT, FLUIDS AND FOD.  SUGGEST MORE FREQUENT INSPECTIONS OF THE FILTER.
