I worked at a Trek dealership before and during the aluminum frame era; never heard of an aluminum Trek coming apart.

A few years after the aluminum frame had been introduced, I asked our Trek rep what effect the aluminum bikes had had on their business. He said that as their aluminum bikes sales had gone up and steel bike sales had gone down, frame warranty claims had gone way down.

IOW, you probably don't have to worry much about that frame.
