I had an '05 Matrix AWD, had it for ten years and some 150,000 miles, give or take. With the exception of a rock taking out the transmission pan and the instant death of the tranny, which isn't Toyota's fault, aside from standard maintenance, the only failure that I had was an ignition component began failing, which tripped a warning light but the car kept running. Cost some $300, as I recall, and that was it. Yeah, modern Toyota engineering is pretty good.
