This all looks correct.

There is no problem with the ends of a fault in 2-D having buried edges.

Run mesh quality checks. In CUBIT/Trelis the condition number aim for a 
condition number smaller than about 2.0.

Does the problem run when you have a very coarse mesh? If so, then start 
from there and work your way down to smaller cells. If a very coarse 
mesh fails (< ~500 cells), then we may need to try to replicate your 
problem.
