This phone was infamous for bricking after 1-2 years and the issue was swept under the rug with an extended warranty program.

The Pixel 5a is acknowledged to have a high incidence rate of motherboard failures, causing power issues resulting in a blank or black screen. As a response, Google Pixel implemented an extended 2 year repair warranty for this problem in the 5a beyond the standard 1 year Google Hardware Warranty.[1]
