As soon as hydrogen/electric/dead cat powered cars become mainstream, you can bet your last that they'll be building 'em to break. It's just too easy to get a dead cat to go on strike...
I saw an air crash investigation docco a few months ago. One of the exterior baggage doors blew open, tearing a hole in the side of the plane and a dozen or so people were sucked out. All due to a faulty locking mechanism. $11500 seems a small price to pay.
But aircraft, unlike family sedans, aren't designed to break.
