Yeah and that sucks because they all WILL fail (2012 2013 until they copied the aftermarket solid poly coupler fix). The spring eats into the shaft so there is no other way it will go. It's not like a part that might not burn out or snap in two. Driving it gentle or changing your oil every month and following a ritual for break-in won't have an affect either
IIRC their replacement guidance was if you hear the noise from sitting inside with the windows up and doors closed. Others have had their dealer change it with just hearing the marbles in a can type rattle with the hood open standing next to it. Like all things it depends on how reasonable your local dealer service department is.
