Hi Heather,
You are going to have a hard time getting any manufacturer to warranty
components. Keep close watch on the remaining leg. Had one BK amputee destroy
the sound ankle requiring amputation of same. Make sure you and rehab team
understand liability of fitting against manufactures recommendations.
Good luck.
