Is that a serious question, or did you just not do any research? Yes, Airbus planes have crashed due to malfunctioning automation. It hasn't even been that long since one of their newest planes actually experienced a problem eerily similar to the 737MAX issue, but got lucky in that it occurred when the plane was higher and had more altitude to trade for time and the pilots were able to regain control.

Yes, I also tried to google if airbus grounded thier entire fleet, but nothing came up, so I thought there were not any systematic issues.

Im not a comercial plane enthusiast either.
