Anything with heat or movement will degrade over time, it’s an engineering certainty. Over 10,000 miles it will need maintenance, over 100,000 miles it will need several replaced parts several times. Eventually the $ put in per year in repairs will be more than buying a new car that doesn’t have those issues.
