"Interested if any other drivers have had this issue?"

I have!

Well, nothing to point to URO and not even with a wagon. Valeo sedan lamps.

After the second fix, it dawned on me the body had been straightened some time in the PO's stewardship. Just not straightened quite well enough to fit the molded tail light assembly. Pulling it up enough to compress the gasket put it under stress once the temperature extremes were felt by the materials. The plastic surrounding the stud cracked.
