When using the Directions feature of Openstreetmap.org, I frequently get the message "Couldn't find a route between those two places"

For example, using these addresses:
From:
10, Transportweg, Distripark Doelwijk, Waddinxveen, South Holland, Netherlands, 2742RH, The Netherlands
To:
Telefoonweg, Ede, Gelderland, Netherlands, 6711ND, The Netherlands

Type: Car (OSRM) - (default choice) results in this error
Type: Car (Mapzen) - this selection gives me a route

Is this a known problem when using OSRM?

This happens frequently when you use the OSRM routing engine operated by Mapbox. Simply choose a different one,

While we provide an UI to the various products they are all independently run, maintained and developed by the respective companies and any bug reports need to go to those companies.
