Anyone agree - these are poorly engineered? XC90

Wife bought a XC90 Turbo for commute driving (~$55k). 5 years later, with only 85k miles, windows leak and floor mats are sopping wet, steering box bad (~$1200), motor mounts failed (~$1000) thermostat failed ($750), radio never holds a station (dealer keeps upgrading SW but nothing works), poor mileage (~14 mpg), etc. Thought these were well engineered and would last. Will never recommend or buy another - understand why Ford sold them! Piece of junk!
