There are far, far, far fewer components for an EV than an ICE.

Their ECU/computer sensors are likely even less sophisticated than ICE ones, especially when it comes to ignition timings, interference engines, etc. There's just WAY more things that can go wrong with an ICE.

The difference is ICE manufacturers have had over a century to get feedback and improve, and EV's have had a tenth of that.
