Okay, acknowledging up front that everyone's experiences may vary. But as local APs who are in the parks multiple times per week, we are not experiencing any higher rate of actual ride break downs -- in fact, we've personally been experiencing less than in the past. Now as for ride pauses, or temporary shutdowns due to guest related issues, those are happening as often and, in some cases, even more often than in past years. We've very rarely been walked off of a ride that genuinely went down because of an issue with the ride system itself. While that does happen, it doesn't appear to be the cause of the majority of ride stops or shutdowns. We have experienced ride pauses and shutdowns due to guests dropping items out of their ride vehicle. Stormy weather (especially when there are lightning strikes in the area) will result in numerous rides needing to shut down temporarily for safety reasons. We've been on rides where a guest (usually a child who kept telling their parent they did not want to ride) totally lost their composure, and the ride had to be stopped to remove them for their own safety. And we've experienced stops or even been walked off due to a guest becoming ill and causing the need for a deep cleaning of a vehicle (which can take a while). Then there are the many times that omni mover style attractions need to slow down or pause for a time to load/unload a guest with mobility issues (or because a guest has fallen on the moving walkway at load/unload zones). We often overhear guests complaining that Haunted Mansion kept 'breaking down' during their ride, when in fact it was simply paused to accommodate a guest's need to transfer between their wheelchair and the ride vehicle. I have to agree with those who mentioned that these things have always occurred, but we are more aware of them now because of Genie and easily visible wait times, and due to social media posts.
