In Europe I've barely seen any broken chargers. Off course sometimes there is a charger out of service, or some random issue. Most of the time this is shown in an app/car navigation, so you don't even go there. But in general they do work as advertised. But we also have a different connector (type 2/ccs instead of type 1/ccs), that seems to be less error prone. And for AC charging usually you need to bring your own cable (which gets locked by the car and the charger). Vandalism also doesn't seem to be such a big issue like in the US.
