Even Japanese make cars that fail and fail often like yours, but statiscally speaking they are much more reliable than European cars and let me emphasize again are easier to diagnose and fix. It's not uncommon that dealers of Euro cars can't even diagnose the problem, much less to fix it.
In any case I had a specific car in mind when advising TGS to think hard whether he is willing to put up with the frequent visits to the dealer, namely I30 as I mentioned in my earlier posts. This car's reliability is bullet-proof unless it has been abused, usually not even a light bulb burns out before 100k miles. But 9-5 is a better driving car, that's the trade-off.
