Hondas have always had glass transmissions and electrical problems that would make a Jeep blush, they were just so simple and underpowered that it was never much of a problem. That all changed once Toyota kicked them out of the “cheap reliable” bracket and Honda had to make their cars more complex and powerful to compete
The electrical problems are overblown, that was a pretty specific few years (around 2005-2008 if I recall correctly) with a handful more recently with these latest generations.
Transmission have 100% been an issue since the 90’s, but like I said, have been pretty much all fixed (save for a few parking prawl issues) since 2006.
I will always say that Toyota has better reliability though, by far. They’re the golden child for cars staying alive.
