It is a matter of economics. If you can make the parts to a high standard the failure rate will be low enough to make replacement or repair seldom.
My parents used to herd problems on their Renaults almost until they became undriveable, otherwise they'd be at the garage more often than at home.
Then they bought a Honda Civic and never had a single issue in 7 years.
The Renaults were relatively easy to repair. But guess what my parents preferred.
