Why do I have to replace tie rods every year?

Do you use the steering wheel a lot while not moving? This tends to wear tie rod ends prematurely. I don’t see it being outright Fast and Furious abuse issue. If it was that, you wouldn’t be asking the question. You would already know. Anyway, if that’s the case, just assure that there is the slightest of motion while turning the wheel …like in tight parking situations …etc.
