Has anyone *ever* had their washing machine fail due to limescale?

I have had burst pipes, knackered bearings and seals, worn out brushes
etc but never a failure that I can attribute to limescale. (I live in
a very hard water area)

Agreed. Our Hotpoint is 11 years old and there's never really been a
scale problem. I did clean some off the door seal seating tonight, but
the real leak was the soap drawer-to-tub hose (well, its cable ties).

Still has the original element - so far! We also live in a very hard
water area.
