Default Roof Racks

Has anyone had any damage to bikes simply from using a rood rack? A friend of mine had his C40 Colnago have its head tube simply break off. To me it looks like a manufacturing error but I wonder if it was caused because for 15 years he was carrying the bike on a roof rack. I can't imagine the bumps and centrifugal force and wind sheers not having some sort of effect.
