So for the record, I had a non-EV car scream bloody murder, barely drivable, ABS triggering randomly, 10 warnings whenever you turned it on, and in the end it was one little burnt out sensor that caused it all.
I wouldn't buy a tesla considering all the dodgy stuff that has come out, but non-EVs are just as susceptable to the printer analogy.
The only ICE cars that are as unreliable as printers are Italian vehicles.
Mine is from the US of A.
American cars aren't exactly wonderful. Each of the big 3 has some specific vehicles/configurations that are reliable, and the rest is terrible.
The last time Ford made a reliable vehicle was the panther bodies with the 4.6L engine. That engine is damn near invincible. They got very good fuel economy for a V8 too
