My original lock broke after about 10 years, and we were VERY careful about NOT slamming the door. It's replacement barely lasted four years. I then replaced that one with the new model and (knock on wood), no problems yet.

Thanks for your reply and info Rick!
Question: Can you share some approximate dates/years that you are referencing? This RV I have is a 2013 model. I'm trying to figure out where that falls in your above timeline. Maybe my lock is one of the "new models" you reference above, or maybe not. On mine, the bolt (springy latch mechanism) is metal and it doesn't seem like it should get much stress so I'd be a little surprised if the metal piece broke.
Thanks!
