My wife and I had to have her 2013 Nissan rogue transmission replaced last year which cost $7k, so I disagree on your point about reliability. -___-

In all seriousness though, I always had the impression that Nissan was known for being the least reliable of the big 3: Toyota, Nissan, Honda

Relatively speaking, perhaps. In practice, modern cars are pretty damn reliable, at least mechanically. Tons of cars end up in the junkyard with perfectly working engines.

I can't seem to find the reference now, but there are some studies out there showing every single brand is more reliable now than the best brand 20 years ago.

Most EVs don't have transmissions, so at least that's one less thing to worry about.
