Sure. I had a 2006 xB automatic that was running on its second transmission when the warranty (60k/5year) ran out. As soon as I rolled over 60k the front bearings went bad. I had those replaced and then a few months later the passenger CV axle died. Then a few thousand miles later the drivers side rear wheel bearing went bad but I replaced those myself. I don't remember exactly when but the alternator and rear window wiper motor also broke. The head unit was also being sketchy this whole time and often the smell of something electric filled the car. I started hearing crackling somewhere under the dash so I traded it in.

It was a fantastic car otherwise and I miss it every day :'(
