The binding problem can crop up at any time, although that does not mean it will.
If I was in your position, I’d be thinking about whether there is a good repair shop within a reasonable distance of where I live and whether I could cope without the guitar for a while if the binding did need fixing. Of course, you may be a dab hand at repair work yourself, which would make it easier.
Or…find a guitar that was made before 2010 (or whenever Martin changed their glue). Ain’t nothing wrong with pre-2010 Martins!
