Not breaking completely but the focus rings on fujis and Sonys tend to get a bit out of shape without any force applied.

Leads to a scraping sound when turned. Annoying for stills, bad for audio.

I don't think "brittle" is the term you are looking for. The definition is "hard but liable to break or shatter easily" What you describe is metal that is maybe a bit too malleable.
