I would be will to bet that is one of the most over looked items. That need serviced from time to time and never even get a second glance. While still under warranty, and during major services.
I do know the Dodge version did see a lot of attention because of very poor design. Because once a little bit of oil or anything made with petroleum in it. Would cause the seals to swell and the whole deal would fall apart, letting dirt and engine grime enter in.
I did replace my rag joint, I had to use a mix of old hardware with some of the new to get the job done.

Thanks for starting this Post. Ken
