From the launch statistics booster landing section of the wiki, looks like they’re in line with previous booster losses, as long as they don’t have too many more this year. But they aren’t above average yet.
It’s might also be relevant to note that the average age of the booster in their fleet is approaching 20 flights. It’s possible that we might eventually see an increase in booster losses, as they figure out what the upper limits of booster reuse are.
What falcon 9 launch failures have there been? I don’t see any recent ones in the wiki.

I said problems, not failures.
What problems then?
Two booster losses. Several irregularities in second stage re-entries. Just off the top of my head. Seems like quality assurance problems to me.
Is it just that they’re launching more, so they have more irregularities?
