What's the difference? As silly as that question sounds, the point is that ICE has the same issue of shoddy components. Ford (but not limited to) enjoys replacing critical metal parts with plastic and dunking rubber in oil. Now they have a reputation for blowing engines and being scrapped because shaving a few cents off the BOM was deemed preferable to not requiring engines to be completely removed to replace said parts that would have cost a dollar to manufacture quality versions of. There are aftermarket manufacturers that make higher quality replacements for a lot of modern OEM parts. Bean counters ruin everything and they seem to have infected almost every business.
