GE oven light burns out quickly

I have a GE electric oven and within days of replacing the oven light bulb it burned out again, twice now.

Any idea why the bulb would burn out so quickly? Is this something to do with the oven itself or just bad bulbs?

It might something to do with the socket itself. Is it ceramic or metal type socket?

Check or replace socket. Maybe the wires or base of socket is not making a good connection. Causing the bulb to prematurely fail. Just a suggestion.
