Many years ago a neighbour went through seven kinds of torture over a new car. It was a German model and even then we were conditioned to the idea that German was a byword for efficiency, so it was quite the topic of conversation. If it wasn`t the fuel pump it was the fan belt, on and on until the poor man was afraid to drive to work for fear he`d get stuck halfway.
