They were grounded twice- the first time over the maintainance technicality, and the second over a financial dispute for the use of airspace.
I asked a Mexican friend of mine who's just obtained his commercial pilot license, and he said their technical reputation is fine. The cabins certainly did look well looked-after to me.
Enjoy the complimentary onboard tequila.
