My guess is that this is not necessarily because of combat damage, but more because they've been driven into the ground like most of the vehicles/aircraft over there. After all, 310 Strykers have been "rebuilt" (i.e. went into for a depot level overhaul to make the trannys, etc. and make everything all nice and purty after driving all over Iraq), and they were only three years old (with two years of the three in Iraq).
