yes it has the YLOD(yellow light of death)

So buying a PS3 wouldn't save me from that? Is it as common as RROD?

i think the fats gets YLOD more frecuently

in the slim is very rare

yes the ylod it is determined by the console comming on with a green light beeping 2 or 3 times quickly turning yellow and turning off then to a flashing or solid red
