Why do American cars break down so often?
<|assistant|>
American cars break down frequently for a variety of reasons, such as inadequate maintenance, improperly specified components, inadequate quality control, environmental conditions such as extreme heat or cold, and defective or poorly made parts. Additionally, many Americans don't adhere to regular maintenance schedules, wear and tear is not addressed quickly enough, and older vehicles are used for longer periods of time, resulting in a high percentage of breakdowns.
