Okay... I don't mean to start anything with the Rotary haters here, but this seems to be a common misconception--
Rotaries (RX7s) are mainly "problematic" due to user error rather than design flaw.
For example, not changing the oil every ~2000 miles (+/- 500) on a rotary engine (rather than 3000 or more on piston-engine cars) or not making certain engine 'safety' mods (such as oil cooler upgrade) before turning up the boost etc. will lead, eventually, to engine failure. Most problems that you see on rotaries are caused by their owners not knowing how to properly maintain the engine rather than the engine being badly designed or made.
