My Maxima has required very little work in the 10 years and 125,000 miles I've put on it. Cam sensors, a radiator, motor mounts... that's about it really.
I'm not sure a Mercedes would be as reliable but condemning FWD based on that alone seems a bit... unfair.
I think you are drawing insufficient conclusions between reliability and platforms. The fact that your Maxima is reliable has nothing really to do with drivetrain layout. You statement has as much validity as saying your Maxima is reliable because it has 4 doors. The two have nothing to do with each other.
