I don't think this is really as big of an issue as the forums would have you think it is. I got mine in June 2012 and have done plenty of aggressive driving with 0 issues. I think some people have just gotten off units. My guess is potential issues with certain motors on the line? A bad order of parts for the seals with quality issues? Who knows, but if it was really all cars there would be a LOT more people complaining about this. Especially those like my buddy that hammers on his constantly and is closing in on 50k miles.
