Samsung DV5451AEW/XAA Dryer not heating

We have a Samsung DV5451AEW/XAA Dryer not heating. 
 

we replaced the heater element about a year ago due to no heat. Now it went out again. I thought it is probably not the heat element again, so  I replaced thermal fuse and the thermistor. Still nothing. So went a head and replaced the heat element again. Viola! It was working perfect.
 

Week later, heat is out again. I warrantied the heater element, thinking maybe it was defective. Installed the new one, boom. Worked great. Now about 4 days later, the heat is out again. 
 

What am I missing here?

When replacing element are you replacing entire heater can with thermostats attached? Provide part number  

 

Are you using OEM parts or after market?
