Best Answer

Several things could cause an O2 sensor to get bad that quickly. First, it could be bad wiring that is causing the signal to be incorrect, meaning the the sensor is still good but it is bringing back bad data. Two, if you have any cylinders misfiring this could cause raw fuel to be pushed down the exhaust, causing the sensor to foul. There are always lots of other things that could be happening that can't be anticipated.
