Latches/locks/linkage problem #1

Last year passenger side double door left side hinges got so tight that they snapped the hinge. No lube would loosen prior to breaking. This week the right door exact same thing. Hinge snapped. Replaced this one costing me $800. Last year was probably the same cost for the left. The original hinges are defective and are unable to be lubed. They know they have a problem because the new ones are made with grease fittings. I just looked on line at a forum and there are several listings for the same problem for years.
