    If you have a few days, I would paint the root with Round-up and leave the hole empty for at least a week (to allow the herbicide to dissipate) to help kill off the old root just to be sure. If you do not have that much time, it should be fine to leave it. If it does start to regrow, remove the suckers and paint the cuts where you cut the suckers off with Round-up.

    I am unable to find any information specific to this variety, but in general, quinces seem to need a certain number of years to fruit well, so perhaps you just need to be patient. Make sure it has lots of sun and plenty of water. This article covers the basics of quince growing: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/quince/growing-quince-trees.htm

    A fully ripe Quince turns completely yellow when ripe.
    It also will have a strong sweet smell.
    If mature they will snap off the tree easily, if they are dropping off the tree they are over ripe.
    If you have to remove the fruit early due to early frosts, but the stems from the tree so you do not damage the branches.
    Quince will ripen off the tree.

    Here is a link with more information.

    From my research I found that heavy rains just prior to ripening can cause fruit to split.
    Also and in correlation with this a Fire Blight or Leaf and Fruit fungus can be the problem. Specifically the Fabraea Maculata virus can cause leaf drop and fruit disfigurement.

    Here are some links for you that I found that may help you determine the cause.
