The question is whether we expect the car to ever reach the point where something bad happens. It's possible the stresses are so low it's unlikely ever to be driven to wherever the failure point is. Whoever designed it must have considered that bringing in cars to have them checked is expensive and inconvenient. Alternatively, whichever part will fail might be cheap enough that it can just be swapped at a regular service. Would be cool if somebody knew.
