?????? Been driving internal combustion engine vehicles for over 45 years and only had one break down, which had nothing to do with the engine. It was a faulty ECU, the engine control unit which is a motherboard that communicates with all the electronic sensors. A properly cared for internal combustion engine is very reliable, especially one that doesn’t have a bunch of unreliable electronic components like those found in an EV.
