We are talking about two different issues here:

1) Wishbones
2) Wishbone mounts on the chassis

1) One of the early 2012 press cars bent its wishbone during an Autocar test. All subsequent cars had beefed up wishbones, so nothing to worry about in that respect.
2) Wishbone mount cracks on the chassis, check for cracks in the vertical chassis tube.
