Why does my iPhone 5 charging cable fail frequently?

My cable never charges in one position and is intermittent in the other. Is this a common problem , dirt or component failure? How good is Apple at standing behind this cable?

iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1

I made an appointment with my local Apple Store, was immediately greeted when I arrived there (early for my appt), my phone and cable were tested. The cable was defective, it was replaced. Spent 8 pleasant minutes playing with the new Macs and left the store happy and impressed with a new cable. They cleaned my phone while they had it, too.
