Reg/Rec problems seem to have plagued Hondas (and probably other makes too) for many years. What's so difficult in making a reliable unit, in this age of electronic wizardry?

Cars and bikes these days seem to suffer with electrical problems more than mechanical. 
The auto industry needs to sort this out.

Nothing and I mean nothing is built to last today.....it's all about manufactures profit margin, especially in this economic climate !!!!

But they should have a guaranteed minimum life span I think. 
I understand things are not built to last through working for Sony.  Their tv's were made of top quality components (built to last) and there was nothing to stop them lasting 18 years before they put them through a 10year ageing process before packing them for shipping. 
Similar things probably happen in all industries or they use cheaper parts to keep the big wheels turning I suppose.
