1. If it is man-made it will break - period.2. Realize that cars, with 1000's of moving parts, will break down -regardless of manufacturer. Over the last 100 years, we have spoiledourselves with technology. We've gotten used to the modern marvels ofscience and technology that we've taken it for granted. If your car breaksdown, and it will, accept it. All those who bad mouth a manufacturer or vownever to buy brand X again are a bunch of cry babies. These are the samepeople who cry because the batteries on the remote control are dead and theyhave to get off the couch to change channels on the tv. Sure, I've had abreak down or two over the last 20 years. No big deal. Shit happens.3. If you never want to fall victim to an automotive breakdown, take publictransit. For those who haven't, be patient.4. If NASA, with all of the world's greatest engineers and billions ofdollars build a vehicle which blows up on launch or breaks up on re-entry,you can at least expect your car to do the same or less.Point: See #1
