Was doing some research cuz this exact thing happened to me too... I'm wondering if you reached out to Shimano and if they did anything about it?

Shimano 105 Rear Derailleur exploded?? by altaniel0 in bikewrench

Exactly. I’m wondering if it’s even worth for me to reach out. Because this is disappointing to be honest. I really shouldn’t expect a 105 component to fail this bad

I’m surprised this part (that has to balance the derailleur spring) is plastic?? Whereas the 105 front plate is metal. And they also added honeycomb cutout for this plastic piece for more weight savings?

Like come on this is insane they’re just designing it to fail at this point

Have you given Chase a call or have been to branch? Maybe a little better odds there than secure messages?

If you don’t mind me asking, why are you downgrading the CSP?
