I would expect there to be odd problem with 'vans that have been overloaded. Casual observation on sites suggests than people ram stuff into their 'vans and are unaware of, or careless about, max payload.
On some models the payload is very small, around 150kg. Add a leisure battery and motor mover and there's not a lot left for 'stuff'.
We've been very careful about this, everything that goes in the 'van was weighed and we did a spreadsheet including allowance for the battery and mover. Extra stuff creeps in over time but we've enough headroom.
Story here from one user:

That was a Bailey but I doubt they're only brand affected. OTOH I've not seen more than one report of wheel cover damage in Elddis groups I follow.
