No, on the contrary, it has been proven correct to a greater extent than any other explanation. For example, it has been demonstrated millions of times in particle accelerators that relativistic mass increase is right on the money. Relativistic time dilation perfectly explains the detectability of muons from cosmic rays. Distortion of spacetime by gravitational fields was measured in an eclipse in 1915. And proofs go on and on and on.

Not as it relates to Classical Physics, and for the most part, most of the theory holds up in quantum physics, however there are some problems. Neutrinos being one big one ( they can and do travel faster then light), and virtual particle interaction as relates to gravity(the effects of gravity are communication between particle via virtual particles). and of coarse the ' Uncertainity Principle' of particle physics ( where it is impossible to know a particles spin and location). Not to mention the duality of particle to behave as particles sometimes and waves others!

By no means. In fact recent experiments with even more precise instruments have in fact emphatically affirmed it's validity.

No. The more we test it, the better it looks.
