I just published a post on the Accendo Reliability website about an example of how failure analysis was used to improve the reliability of a component and the uptime of the equipment in which it was used. The information from the failure analysis was used to determine the root cause of the failure and the corrective actions to prevent future failures.
Here's the link to the article - Example of Using Failure Analysis to Improve Reliability
