I remember back when I was studying engineering, this prof told us about how most car manufacturers can make cars that can last a life time yet they 'time' their parts to go out otherwise there wouldn't be much of a business. Perhaps that's also why most cars start to see problems after 3-4 years (conveniently when the warranty runs out)
I don't understand why they would do that. Yes you will be buying a new car but would you buy from the same manufacturer if your car started having lots of problems as soon as the warranty ran out after 3 years/60k?
