Default Poll: How many miles before solenoid failed?

Please, this poll is attempting to determine an approximate Mean Time Between failures. Therefore it is limited to actual failures and repairs and not to preventative maintenance (PM) repair intervals.

Thank you!

Had to repair my 91 at 100,000 km (62,000 miles) in 2015.

Put in larger contacts from Chrysler, used in the Cummins diesel Nippon Denso starter
