not proper collision in box2d

Question

I am developing a game in which the user have to hit a high speed ball. To hit the ball I have joined a rectangular body with the actor using revolute joint and enabled its motor, to rotate it with a specified speed(motor speed). Now everything is perfect but sometime when ball`s velocity is high , it is bypassing the rectagular body. Using collision listner i found that collision is happening but ball is not getting reflected after collision. As this is happening only when ball is on a high speed, is it bcoz of density of bodies that are colliding . Or its the motor of revolute joint that is responsible for it ?? Am i missing something here??

Here is the code for both bodies

// method for rectangular body

public Body createRectangleBodyPart(float x, float y, float width,
        float height, short groupIndex) {
    PolygonShape shape = new PolygonShape();
    shape.setAsBox(width*WORLD_TO_BOX, height*WORLD_TO_BOX);
    MassData massData = new MassData();
    massData.mass = 15;
    BodyDef bodyDef = new BodyDef();
    bodyDef.type = BodyType.KinematicBody;
    bodyDef.position.y = y*WORLD_TO_BOX;
    bodyDef.position.x = x*WORLD_TO_BOX;
     body = world.createBody(bodyDef);
    body.setMassData(massData);
    FixtureDef fixtureDef = new FixtureDef();
    fixtureDef.shape = shape;
    fixtureDef.density = 1;
    fixtureDef.friction = 100f;
    fixtureDef.restitution = 0.5f;
    fixtureDef.filter.groupIndex=groupIndex;
    body.createFixture(fixtureDef);
    shape.dispose();
    return body;
}

// method for ball body

    public Body createRoundBodyPart2(float x, float y, float radius,
        short groupIndex, float density, int mass) {

    CircleShape shape = new CircleShape();
    shape.setPosition(new Vector2(0, 0));
    shape.setRadius(radius*WORLD_TO_BOX ); // *18
    BodyDef bodyDef = new BodyDef();
    bodyDef.type = BodyType.DynamicBody;
    bodyDef.position.y = y*WORLD_TO_BOX;
    bodyDef.position.x = x*WORLD_TO_BOX;
    MassData massData = new MassData();
    massData.mass = 8;
    Body body = world.createBody(bodyDef);
    body.setMassData(massData);
    FixtureDef fixtureDef = new FixtureDef();
    fixtureDef.shape = shape;
    fixtureDef.density = 0.5f;
    fixtureDef.restitution=0.007f;
    fixtureDef.filter.groupIndex = groupIndex;
    body.createFixture(fixtureDef);
    shape.dispose();
    return body;
}

Try to use isBullet=true property on your ball body

not proper collision in box2d
