Most common issues with transmission failures is heat.
If you didn't tow anything, then the only other way to ruin a transmission without it being a defect or lemon, is if you went off roading or did a lot of spinning of the tires.
Tips to prevent transmission problems for anyone else reading this.
Never spin tires excessively trying to get unstuck such as in mud or snow.
Get the transmission fluid flushed every 25,000 miles.
Pay attention to your coolant, make sure vehicle never overheats.
If you want to be diligent, get a transmission cooler added to your vehicle (if you have a towing package, then you likely already have one).
My guess is when they replaced the transmission they didn't diagnose and solve the issue of what caused the transmission to fail prematurely.
