Second driveshaft to pop in a year
 
I decided to replace my front drivers side driveshaft at the beginning of the year from a big company, and it lasted 2 weeks before the retaining clip didn't hold.
After months of trying to get my money back for a defective part, I was able to get my money back. Minus the uplift of the car. I then bought another driveshaft from another big company and it has now popped.
I've googled this problem and read about them making them too short?. Has anyone else had this issue and can someone help me if my car is the problem?.

you are talking about the half shaft that runs from the front differential to the wheel hub on a driver's side? With a CV joint ?
