Can anyone shed some light into what’s going on with X4A? These are brand new aircraft & shouldn’t be having any issues

Airbus A220s worldwide have a pretty poor reliability rate. Combination of supply chain issues, PW1000Gs, and general teething problems that are seeming to take longer to resolve than other aircraft.
