And if they do, have they for a long time?

Mine don't, I just have the buckling knee.

Just the dead-weight left leg. The muscles won't hold it at parade-rest, it just keeps bending backwards like a banana going the wrong way.

The pain is from the stretching muscle in back, not in the bone joint, but I can only imagine the pain if it goes much farther.
