Are you serous? Electric motors are MUCH more reliable.

My pool pump is exposed to the elements and is going on 16 years for about 6 hours a day.

Tesla. has done one million mile tests on the entire drive train with no significant wear.

Electric motors have fewer components and less wear points than gasoline motors.

Lots of electric motors are still good after decades of service.

It’s the transmissions that have been failing at a high rate.
Then Tesla demands disappointed owners sign an NDA as a condition of replacement.
