Because Tesla screwed up. The component itself (an 8GB e-MMC flash chip) actually wasn't faulty, but it was being misused/overused by constantly writing syslog data to it. Apparently this could amount to hundreds of MB of writes per day, with the device already mostly filled with firmware. After a few years of this it would exceed its write-cycle limit and start to fail.
