Well this is simply not true,
many cameras and lenses have frequent occuring problems unlike others.
some examples in Canon land.
Stuck aperture blades on canon efs 18-55mm, its IS sister doesn't have this issue although more complicated.
autofocus engine failure on canon 50mm f1.4
There are plenty of such examples.
Can anyone a reliable source for cameras reliability??

I have never heard of stuck aperture blades with the 18-55mm non-IS, nor with the IS one. With the Nikon 35mm f2, yes.
Engine = motor, I presume. Be glad you do not have a Pentax.
No, there are no "reliable sources".
