I have never seen any issues with the F-35A emergency hook. The design was tested and verified with AA-1 (what is left out is that AA-1 went to Edwards for wet runway/brake testing so 'emergency hook function' was needed). If there were any I'll imagine we would know about it (as we seem to be aware of most negative things). Meanwhile a slideshow of good pics is here:
