But that's just my personal experience.

The engines are interference design so it sucks when you break a timing belt, but thats the risk you take when you don't change it at the scheduled time or skip out on replacing the tensioner. I don't see how it would warrant a tranny replacement though. All cars have their quirks but on a whole they are good cars.
