I agree, that they do seem to be extraordinarily unreliable.

I don't think that they are that unreliable, just that when they fail,
they are patched up and fail again quickly, so you see multiple
failures; or they are taken out of service until a replacement part
arrives ... and they don't seem to stock any, so it can be many weeks or
even months before it is fixed.
