My understanding is they still experience failure - but so far I think the estimates are only 1-2% May change as the cars age and more data is available.

Still, 1-2% chance is pretty slight - I would argue that all engines have a chance they will blow up due to something. Lots of ford, toyota, honda engines have gone kaput for one reason or another. With so many moving parts and variables, it happens.
