None of these issues is exclusive to trains. I would argue that they are more common in cars, and even more, cars take, on average, longer to repair.
You would be wrong. People absolutely can open windows in broken cars or get out of them. I had to call a tow track couple of times and it doesn't take more than an hour. If it happens in a city you can wait in a bar or wherever. If a train breaks 10 meters from the station you will not be allowed to exit. And I don't care about repair time, I care about the time I'm sitting in a metal box without AC.
