For cars that are out of warranty, it is an advantage, as the car will be scrapped sooner, thereby opening up a hole in the market that needs to be filled with a new car.

An advantage to the manufacturer, that is. For the consumer, it leads to never ending car payments for life, or surprise bills that approach the cost of a replacement vehicle.

But if it happens too much the cars will have low value on the secondhand market, and therefore be less desireable to new car purchasers because they will suffer more depreciation. Not all buyers look at that stuff but smart ones do.
