Aren't they prone to an even more expensive failure?
Is your exhaust manifold original? They tend to Crack and throw the 02 sensor code because the sensor catches some of the cold air from the Crack and throws a code.

My amazon ntk sensor is going 5 years strong according to the file of receipts that came with the car
