I wouldn't say the MT has significantly more problems than the AT, especially if you factor in that there is likely more MT owners posting here than AT and discount the normal complaints of stiff 2nd and general rough around the edges character.

Grinding the gears and the ~three clutches that went out are a tiny percentage of the cars sold and wouldn't be an issue if dealerships would cover the warranty like they are supposed to.

what it really comes own to

MT -> less parts -> damage more likely to occur from driver erorr
AT -> many more parts -> failure more likely due to parts as the entire system is well... automatic lol
