might be the wiring to that light since you use the same light elsewhere without problem and replaces a few times. get the cables checked all the way to the ELCB if possible. or just pull from an alternative source and see if the new cable solves your problem (dont forget to terminate the old wiring if you leave it in place)

Potential reason, kitchen heat and oily gases that may prematurely "kill" it faster.

LED (light emitting diode) light is still basically an electronic component..

The common failure modes are abnormal heat.. In the case of LED lighting the electrolytic capacitors (90%) are usually the first to fail but it could also be the transistors (any component really)..

The good caps are rated at 105°C so when you put in the new lamp check that that the LED drivers are kept away from any heat sources..

I've to thank Richard, although we seldom cook but we do boil or steam food, I believe the steam is killing the led

If that's the case you might consider using a cooker hood or at the very least an exhaust fan within the cooking area, which will exhaust out the hot oily gases from condensation onto your light fittings..
