Modern cars tend to be very reliable in the early years. As they get older they get less reliable. I suspect your friends issue was budget, they were not willing (likely able) to spend the money needed to have a reliable car)

My coworkers car is still in its warranty period and just suffered an engine issue that is going to take ~5 weeks to resolve and would have cost $10,000 if it wasn’t otherwise covered.
