Cracked Tomcat frames
At least three 92FS with dead triggers out of the box
Then there was the run of 92Ds with the front sight slot milled at a downward angle
It seems to be a Tennessee problem, not an Italy problem.

All the major manufacturers target a return rate of less than 1%, and we're under that along with S&W, Ruger, and Beretta. Your odds of getting a bad S&W are pretty much exactly the same as getting a bad Taurus revolver (very low).
Now I can't control people who, for some reason, invent problems because they're invested in seeing the brand fail, which is still something that surprises me whenever it happens.

I called Colt to get an extra yoke/crane screw for a Python, and the rep not only said No, he also said he wouldn’t know who to ask(!!!!).
I'd love to know why Taurus used to offer the flush 856 hammer to the public, then it was removed.
Parts availability. Most of them go into guns, and the few spares we have are in our repairs department. If there's ever X more than the spares quantity, those go up for sale. Hammers are one of the parts we have to replace the most often, because "Highly Trained Kitchen Table Gunsmiths" are forever doing their own action and polish jobs and ruining their hammers.
Everyone should be rooting for Taurus. They seem to be doing a lot of good work and they clearly are improving.
Do the Rossi revolvers have a bit smoother pull than the 856 series? I’m asking for someone with limited hand strength, who would need two fingers to have a decent pull on an 856.
