CAM sensor shot after 5 months ?!?!

Ok, I changed both of my cam sensors about 3-5000 miles ago, or roughly 4 months ago. My CEL turns on, check it, both are shot again. Sensors are under warranty, But seriously, THIS HAPPENS that frequently ? i hate the rambling noise the cams back, or the tick tack noise when driving when these things are shot ! its a nuisance !!

Any word of advice ? or experiences ?

Thanks

Did you get the Nissan ones or after-market?? I personally think that for sensors and electrical stuff like that is better to go with the originals..... Ask me how I know.

+1 on aftermarket sensors. OEM only.
