Not that I know of. I think if you're careful with them and make sure your hands aren't grimy and greasy when you use them, they will last longer.
I bought my car when it was 3 years old and the buttons and ***** were pretty beat up. As soon as I got it I had the dealer replace the whole nav unit, buttons and all, and more than a year and a half later everything still looks brand new.

I think this is correct. If I'm not very careful, my fingernail will hit the **** first, and that seems to be the culprit.
Whoever the heck tested these ***** for use in our NAV units did NOT consider fingernails. A small oversight that is so visible to the consumer gets a car a bad rap.
Wish there was some way to "harden" them somehow.
