Either the loss of lubrication due to a boot being ripped or torn, or just plain old wear and tear on the CV itself. Starving the CV joint of lubrication will make the joint loosen a lot faster than it would if you just put many miles on it. To make sure you don't starve the CV joint of lubrication you can inspect the boot regularly, such as everytime you change your oil.
