Premature Wishbone Replacement

My Dealership replaced both wishbones and track rod ends under warranty after noticing wear in one track rod end during a routine service. My concern is that my 2017 X6 (F16) has only covered 35,000 miles, mostly on A roads and motorways. The Service Team could not give any plausible reason why these components had worn out prematurely.

Has anyone else had issues like this with an X6?

Not sure what a track rod end is but there are several threads about front suspension issues in the X platform.
