And then I find this thread, about the new style U-Clip screw style fitting failing.
So it turns out that both can fail, I guess?
My plastic clip fitting is supposedly a new design over the original plastic clip fitting. Since everything made by man has the possibility of failing, what do you do?

After reading that thread, I'm going to just use the U style and loctite it. I think it probably just vibrated loose over time and loctite should prevent that.
