Default Several bad cv axle on 2008 Honda accord

My 2008 Honda accord driver side cv axle has been replaced 3 times. This always go bad 2-3 months after replacement. What can be causing this problem?

What brand of replacement axles are you using?

I have used several brands. Teo different brands bought from autozone and I have also used 2 used oem bought from junk yards by the mechanic that replaced it. All only last 2-3 months. At the 3rd months, I will be hearing some annoyed sounds whenever I step on brake and putting gear in reverse or drive to backup or driving forward.
If you know any other brands that are good, please I will appreciate the recommendation. Thank you.

New OEM Honda and Raxles are two of the very best out there, and they cost accordingly; APWi also gets good reviews.

Any particular way they're going bad? Where I'm going is whether there's anything else in your suspension that's leading to the failures?

I got notifications about the post being "reported". Did you click that? It's not a good way to reply because that's how you report a post that breaks the rules. Besides, your reply won't be visible to help others who find this thread.

So your suspension is in good shape otherwise. But how did the axles fail? Did they all fail the same way?
