Was the issue fully resolved with the 2009?
To answer your question, the early (97-00 and some 01's) carried the dual row bearing, which has demonstrated a 1-2% failure rate. The 01-05's carried the single row, which failed an 8-10% rate. The 06-08 engine's carried the oversized third design, which still failed at 1-2%.
