No, I never heard of one failing. I have stock hinges and they are working as well today as they did when they were installed. However, I only have around 200 hours on the plane. It is early in the morning and I may not be thinking clearly, but why would you need more than 4, 2 for the horiz and 2 for the rudder?

But, has anyone heard of the one of the original U channel hinges failing or wearing out and had to be changed? The price for one hinge set up is about $11.00 at Wicks. Times nine hinges or so
