Yes, glove box hinges that always break after a year (for multiple models over multiple decades; so bad there are dozens of replacement kits on eBay), trunk releases that require 3~4 button pushes to open (also over multiple decades on multiple models of VWs), transmissions that can't be services without specialty tools (why would you need to replace transmission oil? It will last the life of the engine, so we'll just seal it permanently).

How German engineers made a functioning high speed rail system, I have no fucking clue.
