Hi John,
The advise from Frank N Kimmey is good; you may want to check cool-down rate
from reflow for being too fast and causing thermal shock cracking. Also, your
pads may still be dimensioned for wave soldering and be too big, thus creating
very large fillets. These cause compressive stresses in the chip components
when operation is in cold temperatures.
