I purchased a 2022 Nissan Rouge Sport because I wanted a small car for city driving. One thing I began to notice is every time I drove the Nissan my ears began to ring due to the whine of the CVT. After 4 months I traded it in for a 2023 Mazda CX-30 which is a fantastic vehicle.
I'm 63 My first car was a Chevy Nova!! I had 3 and everyone was a gem❤Then I bought a S10 chevy truck that was a money pitt!!! I replaced the transmission twice before I bought a lifetime warranty from AMCO!! I SWEAR IT WAS IN THE SHOP EVERY 3 TO 6 MONTH'S 🙄 I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHEVY!!!
A friend of mine ordered and took delivery on a 21 GMC Yukon. At 19k miles it was at the dealer getting new lifters and having bent pushrods replaced. Under warranty, of course, but he is LIVID ! His previous Yukon ( 2003) had 305k miles on it , drivetrain UNTOUCHED ! We’re not moving ahead.
There's no replacement for displacement; my 3.7 liter V-6 naturally aspirated engine in my Nissan 370Z is built like a tank. At 65k miles the engine is smooth, quiet, burns no oil and has clean exhaust tips(no oil burning or carbon buildup). BMW = Break My Wallet
I like the Toyota (and Ford) hybrids. No turbos. No GDI without port injection. No sleazy mechanical CVTs. No start/stop systems. No belts (timing or accessory). No torque converter 11 speed automatic. No torque converter. No 12 Volt alternator or starter. Electric car goodness without the electric car drawbacks. Great for what you don't get.
My 2017 Nissan Rogue has passed 60000 miles, runs great and is one of the best cars I've owned. It's a 4 cylinder (not 3!) CVT, neither of which have caused any issues. I treat it with respect and it returns the favour. This is the 3rd CVT I've owned and not a single issue with any of them. That's my 2 cents.

@@michaelwyder2245 You're citing older Toyotas before all the modern electronics with radar, sonar, infotainment systems etc. Factor in newer EPA standards that require less reliable turbos. Increased prices also mean cutting corners. Don't expect that kind of mileage from any modern car, even a Toyota.
@@OG-BIG-SHEPHERD. Really ? is that why I said the " older generation of 2.0L " ? I know they changed them in 2011, my Elantra was very close from 2007 to 2010, and that 2.0L was reliable.
My 2015 VW Passat TDI is turbo charged and the engine is still going strong. Sadly, VW is not building TDIs anymore for the US market. Note: Consumer Reports said that the TDI is the only motor to buy for a VW in the US market. They are right.
keeping a car for 8-10 years is a bad value opportunity anyway. you compromise safety and spend more time on common wear and tear repairs than if you owned a 3-5-year-old car that didn't need it. Trust me, I've had old Toyotas and Subarus (two with 200k miles on them) most of my life and I'm sick of the hobbyist maintenance on them, not to mention fuel pumps, alternators, and coils that go bad. Not worth my time anymore. You can have a newer car for the same money and save your time repairing it.
@@kennedy90027 Sure if you have the cash flow to deal with the highest depreciation level for an automobile. Some don't have that much money to blow and if we take care of them from the start, they can go the 12 years because no one has abused it. Then buy another with cash built up over those 12 years.
@@gibblespascack1418 I think it's turbocharged diesel. Diesel engines are built sturdier than gasoline due to high compression forces and diesel is natural lubricant resulting in longevity
I miss my 82 with the 5-speed transmission and an 8-foot bed. Shell made it a great sleep-in travel rig. Got 27.5 MPG on the freeway at 70+ speeds. Only problem was the road fatigue from the bare bones noisy cabin. That and corrosion problems that were its eventual death knell for me.
@@gcrav gentleman, when I got my 86 Toyota 22r engine pick up single axle, automatic transmission it was from a retired farmer, I was born and raised in the gasoline and diesel mechanical field of expertise, I took it completely apart, restored it practically to his original condition, it runs trouble free and the total price of restoration wass practically pennies, everything works to the perfection even the time clock, and the air conditioner was a walk in the park to fix, at my 72 years of age I know that my kids once I pass it down they will have an extreme reliable Toyota truck good for the next 400,000 miles, guarantee.
The more complicated they make them the more that can go wrong. If I’m going to spend $20k or more I’ll find a restored early 70’s vehicle without all the modern BS installed.
@handimanjay6642 My 2022 Toyota Corolla with a manual transmission has been perfect to me since I bought it in December of 2021 with one exception. It is running on battery #3. According an expert I listen on the radio the problem has to do with all the sophisticated electronics cars come with these days. The next big thing they should come up with is a much better and longer life type of battery.
I love when you read all these comments. Cars have come so far it is incredible. Back in 70's and 80s you had points and a rotary cap. Change the spark plugs every 10,000 miles. Had to set timing with a timing light. You got 10 miles to the gallon. If a car lastest 100,000 miles it was rare. Cars today are amazing machines.
The “Formula One” car engines are also small, but last for only one race! Those 3-cylinder engines with turbos must sound like sewing machines running on Methamphetamine at full boost!
100% correct on Jaguar..an absolute piece of $50,000 junk that will lose you $12,000 after the first year..Rides like a stage coach..Horrible quality from those new Indian Owners of Jaguar.
EPA fuel economy requirements are to help the environment? How does numerous failed turbos and engines and CVT transmissions help the environment? How does discarding an electric car because the battery is dented help the environment?
I had a classic, 1999 Jeep Wrangler for 18 years and 229,000 miles. Loved that car! I hate the look of the newer big, fat boxy Wranglers with the way oversized tires. They completely ruined it.
Politically correct as it could be too. Scotty warns against Nissans too. I had a '91 stripped down small Nissan pickup truck. That was a good one but it's long gone.
I have a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport with the 2.0 litre turbo engine. I bought it new. It has over 180 000 kms or 110 000 miles with zero problems with my engine or any other part of the car. lts as solid and quiet as the day it was new. Would definitely buy one again. My son has a 2017 model and loves it. HYUNDAI FOR LIFE🇨🇦
My Jaguar F-Pace 3.5T (Supercharged V6) has 130,000 miles on it. It has NEVER been in the shop for anything other than routine oil changes, new brakes, and tires. Not one single repair otherwise. It is by far, the best handling car I've ever owned. Handles like a sports car but is an amazingly capable SUV. It is very fast. I've owned lots of Mercedes, BMW's, and Porche over the years and this is by far my favorite car.
Far too many people avoid normal maintenance. Engines these days need frequent oil changes . Lots of ruined car engines out there , the owner saved money on oil changes.
Designed Obsolescence is intended because dealerships don’t make the kind of money that they need to survive when cars last 20+ years. That’s why Toyota quality is rapidly declining
I have 3 1999 Toyota Avalons and a 2001 Lexus IS300 all with the same engine and combined mileage of 800k miles on them. I will never buy another car. I do notice neither Toyota nor Honda were on this list. I will give Honda the same praise as I would give Toyota.
unless its a 68 Dodge Dart with a slant 6 and a 904......Local papers are littered with 15 year old cars with bad automatic transmissions. Buy a manual trans if you want to have it last. Im so fed up with modern cars. How does an OBDII car not throw a code and fail miserable on a smog test? Try and troubleshoot that in your garage.....
24 years ago I needed a car. I did research and found a list of cars that were highly recommended by several outlets. I found the car. I did not go to a dealership. I looked on the internet where I could get it at the best price. I found the right place and traveled to another state by plane and bought the car and drove it back home. After the warranty was over I stopped taking the car to a dealership for check ups. I go to one of those guys who has his own shop and has a good reputation. If you go to a dealership for repairs they're gonna rip you off. Believe it's a sure thing. That was 24 years ago and I'm still using the car. It has many miles on it and I call it "my Columbo Car."
7:28 specifically the Thetta II 2.0 GDI and 1.6T GDI. The 2.0 MPFI is a solid engine, the only work you will need to do is change the valve cover gasket around 60k which is an easy cheap job.
I drive a 2011 Kia Sportage, base package, manual transmission. Bought it for 8k cash. Kia undercoated it free of charge and it had 85k on the odometer. I just turned over 240,000 miles! Still running like a champ with good engine compression. If I drive the highway with discipline and stay under 65 mph I'm still getting 30 miles to the gallon. Regular service and regular oil changes go a long, long way.
Alfa Romeo Stelvio. At 38,000 miles it started shutting off going down the road. Spent a month in the shop got it back was good for 500 miles the. Back in the shop for another 6 weeks. It was so bad we just bought a Grand Cherokee while it was in the shop and once it came back we just sold it to Carvana. Never buy another Alfa Romeo or Maserati again. Just in case y’all were wondering the new Dodge small SUV is basically the same vehicle.
Dear, please be more specific before posting. Which Stelvio did you purchase? Gasoline or Diesel? New or secondhand? If gasoline was a 2.0 or a V6? Otherwise ur message is totally useless
This explains why these vehicles sell for far less than their Toyota or Honda counterparts. Thanks for this information -- you helped me dodge these lemons.
I have always kept my vehicles 10+ years minimum, but I fear those days are gone for good. My 2001 Toyota Tacoma is at 507,000km/315,000 mi and still running strong BUT...... I know I'm on borrowed time. I've been shopping around and have concluded none of the current production vehicles are anywhere near as reliable as my old truck (but the prices have tripled!). IMO it's a combination of manufacturers just not caring anymore about quality design and being focused solely on profit margin + government mandated fuel efficiency and other regulations. I'm not looking forward at all to buying a new vehicle. 😐 Turbo charged engines and CVT's are just throw away junk.
If you run a turbo, you need to change your oil religiously and often. Nothing over 3k miles and run name brand synthetic oil. Always let the engine warm up some before driving
@51AByou have a point and to that point they are built for turbo charging from the ground up for commercial use, not comparable to consumer cars, where they tack turbos on.
I have a Toyota Raize which is much smaller and the weight is bearable for a 3 Cylinder /turbo c. My home is Bali and the traffic can be heavy no need for a fast Car, but I like that if you want to take over a Car, the engine responds and gives a kind of safety. Seldom is there an opportunity to go over 100 miles!
Not sure what evidence backs this stuff up, but my 2018 Rogue just passed 168,000 miles. My 2015 Tahoe is at 193,000, but I did have to put a $5,000 transmission in this year. I guess thats what happens pulling horse trailers every weekend.
@@rich_svoboda Ah yes im sorry. I thought you were towing with your rogue. Tahoe is a different animal. I rented one once. Lots of power. Burned about a barrel of gas in a couple of days.
@@jakhamar55 No worries. I agree that towing with a Rogue or similar should be avoided. I have a Tahoe as my daily driver and wish the miles per barrel was a littler better. LOL.
My last job contract was 8 years. I drove a 2018 rogue for 2 years for them. It had 32k miles, after contract was up it was at 186,000. I drove that absolute shit out of that vehicle, literally lived in it. Sometimes that engine didn't get turned off for 6-7 straight days. And even though the company paid for all maintenance, I still would only get oil change every 10-15k miles. Going waaaay over what I was supposed to
Nisan transmission problems are notorious. I would simply avoid Nissans. I suppose if you really know which cars have the bad transmissions deals can be had because word is getting out about these disastrous cars.
I used to had a 2005 Nissan Sentra that I had for 10 years(had 185K miles on it before selling it) and no problems with the automatic transmission. Don't get an automatic transmission Nissan sedan(Maxima, Altima, Sentra) past gen 5(2000 - 2006) since the gen 6 sedans is where they use CVT and those are bad news. Get them with manual transmissions if you get a gen 6 or later Nissan sedan. Currently have a 2008 Toyota Corolla CE(gen 10 Corollas are from 2007 to 2013) with over 214K miles and runs great especially the automatic transmission on it with no issues.
It's ironic that as technology improves, vehicles are becoming less reliable across the board. Even Toyota has multiple recalls on various vehicles nowadays. Meanwhile, my '08 Yaris soldiers on. 150K on the odometer, still has the original starter, alternator, fuel pump, water pump
Land Rover y Jaguar are the best looking cars in the shop. I got lucky. Had 1999 Van der Plas. Like a small limousine. 4.0, extra 9” in the back, 4 HEATED SEATS, FOUR, CREAMY light brown leather, tray tables. English racing green. Wow! Couple guys said “you are very brave”. I loved it, but never found any other owners to say that.
Ford trucks have their problems too, in general transmission and engine. You want something new? Roll the dice and see what you come up with . Pretty much everything out there is junk, so get the best warranty and get rid of the thing before the warranty expires.
A friend of mine was an engineer for a large Bathroom supply company. His dream was to be an engineer for Ford . He finally got the job of his dreams and walked out a few years later
10 gen accord 11 gen civic. The 2.0 and the 1.5 4 cylinder engines are boosted at modded Supra levels, in conjunction with direct injection and weak cylinder head bolts means engine failure is inevitable. My 2.0 accord had 2 engines before I had to let er go.
I have no complaints with my Nissan. But it's a 2006 Sentra. I bought it in 2008. I still have it. It still runs good and has almost 500 thousand miles on it. 😊
All my VW’s have been very good; Golf GTI, Rabbit 2.5, 1.9 and 2.0 TDI, all have been great no real issues. Two had the DSG system. Is it a new thing with VW?
The current Corvette body style, C8, has had many transmission failures, computer & sensor failures, & etc. They're priced at roughly $100-200,000, depending on the variant, on options, & etc.
hmmmm... my 2017 V6 Jaguar F-Pace has 150K miles on it and is still working well. The only problem was a coolant leak (covered by warranty). Other than that its been normal maintenance. Could be that I change the oil every 5,000 miles and pay attention to all the other details like replaced plugs and ignition coils early, anti-freeze early, etc.. My opinion... if you follow any manufacturer's maintenance recommendations for modern cars, your car will have problems much earlier than it should.
it is an easy fix, stop making giant 5,000+ pound cars. The added weight makes them need bigger engines. There is no reason for a suv to be more than 3500 lbs unless it is a truck needed to pull heavy loads. My smallish Honda Fit holds 4 adults easily and has some cargo space. It weights 2500 pounds and uses a 1.5L 4cyl with 130HP. I get 30mpg around town and no one beats me off the line.
Honestly, if I were the judge presiding over the Hyundai/Kia class-action, I'd throw it out. If you don't know by now these cars are garbage, that's on you. You don't get to play with fire and whine about the lighter maker if you get burned.
The governments around the world forcing manufacturers to produce complex unproven technology to increase fuel economy is what has killed reliability in vehicles. And in Semi trucks as well.
I understand that they had aluminum blocks with no sleeves, apparently the technology wasn't behind the actual manufacturing of the block. I just believe in the old cast iron engines.
@@rodneyconover4170 The Irony here is that you ADMIT that. I drove one in 87 but it was not mine. Used it all the time as a pickup line, "Hey babe wanna take a ride in my vette?" Well of course I do, we get to the car and 97% of em turned back. Some laughed and went for a ride anyway. Those were some fun girls.
A LOT of these recent problems all come down to regulations related to emissions and being more efficient. Not necessarily saying those regulations shouldn’t be in place, they just cause lots of problems. Other than that, it usually comes down to cost cutting.
Most of these brands are well known for having problems for years now and people still buy them in spite of the fact that there are a couple of other brands that are well known for their reliability
The worst cars was the AMC cars. My parents bought a brand new 1978 AMC Concord. only 6 miles on the odometer. 2 days later, the starter went out. A year later, the transmission went out. These cars were pieces of crap!
And you wonder why Nissan is losing profits. Doesn’t stop at the Rogue. Had a Pathfinder and it was in the shop every other month. Did pick up a 2020 Ranger with the 2.3. After’19 Ford redesigned the engine and updated the transmission. You’ll find several with over 100k on them.
Any Hyundai model produced between the years 2005-2010 are the only ones that I will deal with.After that, their cars got prettier, but reliability started to tank hard.
How can an industry that has been around for more than 100 years still be struggling to produce reliable products?
Easy - no longer made or designed with quality in mind - also, European and Chinese ownership of American names.
Emissions causes all this. The engine whatever company perfects becomes outdated by emission standards.
Upper management caring more about profits than quality.
They have no desire to fix issue. Only profit matters
@@oscarjones529American cars sucked long before China or Europe, just look at the Malaise Era.
CVT transmissions have ruined Nissans reputation.🤑
I remember when Nissans were solid vehicles.
I'm old enough to remember when they were called Datsuns.🤣
90s Nissan Sentra were the poor man's corrolla
Nissan should demand a better CVT transmission from jatco!!
@@stoundingresults Poor man's Corolla? Corolla is cheap.

Who the hell thinks a 3 cylinder engine should be in a 2 ton car?
Should be in a hotdog cart or a lawnmower, or something of that nature.
Great motor: for a golf cart!
Then they add a turbo to get two to three hp per cubic inch, use lightweight metals and plastic for mileage and wonder why reliability suffers
The Geo Metro had 3 cyl, they seem ok
Yamaha sidewinder snowmobiles have 3 cylinder engines (1 liter..almost)
Turbocharged, over 200 hp to move 600lbs! Not 2 tons!! lol
3 cylinder engines in a heavy vehicle, what could go wrong.
They work harder,,heat up more and won't last 5 years if you daily drive
My VW Golf has 5 cylinders and uses 'em all! 😊
Agree. Not to mention turbo chargers. Understand fuel efficiency. Gotta be a better way or at least go back to 4-cylinder engines.
How could anyone with a brain approve such engine for such heavy SUVs?

My 2015 VW Passat TDI is turbo charged and the engine is still going strong. Sadly, VW is not building TDIs anymore for the US market. Note: Consumer Reports said that the TDI is the only motor to buy for a VW in the US market. They are right.
keeping a car for 8-10 years is a bad value opportunity anyway. you compromise safety and spend more time on common wear and tear repairs than if you owned a 3-5-year-old car that didn't need it. Trust me, I've had old Toyotas and Subarus (two with 200k miles on them) most of my life and I'm sick of the hobbyist maintenance on them, not to mention fuel pumps, alternators, and coils that go bad. Not worth my time anymore. You can have a newer car for the same money and save your time repairing it.
@@kennedy90027 Sure if you have the cash flow to deal with the highest depreciation level for an automobile. Some don't have that much money to blow and if we take care of them from the start, they can go the 12 years because no one has abused it. Then buy another with cash built up over those 12 years.
@@gibblespascack1418 I think it's turbocharged diesel. Diesel engines are built sturdier than gasoline due to high compression forces and diesel is natural lubricant resulting in longevity
@@normanraval9566exactly!😊
After listening at this video, I come to realize that my 1986 Toyota pick up is the truck to keep.

@@jonesy4588 by your standards, but if you get to see it, perhaps you would like to own it,
That's because Toyota produces some of the most reliable vehicles on the planet.
I miss my 82 with the 5-speed transmission and an 8-foot bed. Shell made it a great sleep-in travel rig. Got 27.5 MPG on the freeway at 70+ speeds. Only problem was the road fatigue from the bare bones noisy cabin. That and corrosion problems that were its eventual death knell for me.
@@gcrav gentleman, when I got my 86 Toyota 22r engine pick up single axle, automatic transmission it was from a retired farmer, I was born and raised in the gasoline and diesel mechanical field of expertise, I took it completely apart, restored it practically to his original condition, it runs trouble free and the total price of restoration wass practically pennies, everything works to the perfection even the time clock, and the air conditioner was a walk in the park to fix, at my 72 years of age I know that my kids once I pass it down they will have an extreme reliable Toyota truck good for the next 400,000 miles, guarantee.
The more complicated they make them the more that can go wrong. If I’m going to spend $20k or more I’ll find a restored early 70’s vehicle without all the modern BS installed.
Lmao 20k will buy you nothing new. Maybe 30k
1970 VW type 3/squareback suits me just fine…
I still drive around town and out of town in a 1998 Astro Van L's with no problems whatsoever because I perform all the maintenance myself😂.
Nice concept but my parent’s 70s cars were crap.
@handimanjay6642 My 2022 Toyota Corolla with a manual transmission has been perfect to me since I bought it in December of 2021 with one exception. It is running on battery #3. According an expert I listen on the radio the problem has to do with all the sophisticated electronics cars come with these days. The next big thing they should come up with is a much better and longer life type of battery.
Isn't a common automotive term planned obsolences at play here?
Yes .... All electric ...
WHEN I WAS GROWING UP , A ROGUE WAS
CALLED A THIEF ! , OR ROBBER !
I love when you read all these comments. Cars have come so far it is incredible. Back in 70's and 80s you had points and a rotary cap. Change the spark plugs every 10,000 miles. Had to set timing with a timing light. You got 10 miles to the gallon. If a car lastest 100,000 miles it was rare. Cars today are amazing machines.
LOL, A Nissan Rogue ad played before this played.
It did for me as well😂
My 2013 Hyundai Santa fe xl that I bought new has had very few repairs and I still love to drive it.
THE PAST WAS BETTER THAN THE PRESENT!!$$
I have chevy traverse 2014 , it is an amazing car , so smooth, so reliable, have no issues, only changing oil on time and drive.
I confess, I have owned Mazda's M3, Mx-5, Cx-9 2017 and up, There engineering has been practically flawless and I would recommend .
ive found mazdas to be junk
@@mikemiller659 Older ones before 2017 when ford was involved !
Man. I know I'm getting old. 3 cylinder engines ? WTF. I've never even bought a four. 6 cylinders on up. This seems like a problem waiting to happen.
The “Formula One” car engines are also small, but last for only one race! Those 3-cylinder engines with turbos must sound like sewing machines running on Methamphetamine at full boost!
My 09' Matrix is coming up on 400,000 and is still going strong.
The early Fusion hybrids and C-Max hybrid and plug-in were very reliable, but Ford's newer products have been a disaster.
I have a 2016 Nissan rouge sl. With over 200,000 miles And zero issues with the transmission and motor. Still running like It did when it was new.
LITTLE SMALL engines WITH A TURBO ?
EQUAL HIGH STRESS REVVING ,THAT LEAD

100% correct on Jaguar..an absolute piece of $50,000 junk that will lose you $12,000 after the first year..Rides like a stage coach..Horrible quality from those new Indian Owners of Jaguar.
EPA fuel economy requirements are to help the environment?
How does numerous failed turbos and engines and CVT transmissions help the environment?
How does discarding an electric car because the battery is dented help the environment?
Not driving a car does help. How does 8 billion humans on earth help the environment?
bad points to argue
Those are actually two excellent questions. The green new dealers do not want to answer questions like that.
3 cylinder engines belong in hyperbikes only!
Don’t forget the GEO Metro, Yugo GV, and those crappy Fiat cars.
Tell this to Koenigsegg:)
I had a classic, 1999 Jeep Wrangler for 18 years and 229,000 miles. Loved that car! I hate the look of the newer big, fat boxy Wranglers with the way oversized tires. They completely ruined it.
Disposable vehicles for the future. Don't get rid of your old reliable vehicle.
JATCO = Junk Automatic Transmission COmpany.
I agree
Absolutely true.
When I saw this, there was a Nissan ad before the article. (LOL!)
Politically correct as it could be too. Scotty warns against Nissans too. I had a '91 stripped down small Nissan pickup truck. That was a good one but it's long gone.
I have a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport with the 2.0 litre turbo engine. I bought it new. It has over 180 000 kms or 110 000 miles with zero problems with my engine or any other part of the car. lts as solid and quiet as the day it was new. Would definitely buy one again. My son has a 2017 model and loves it. HYUNDAI FOR LIFE🇨🇦
The Ford f150 ecoboost should have made the list
Ecoboost in general.
My 2005 Lincoln LS with a 3.9 V8 at 86000 miles is still going strong. Have to run premium, but worth it.
My Jaguar F-Pace 3.5T (Supercharged V6) has 130,000 miles on it. It has NEVER been in the shop for anything other than routine oil changes, new brakes, and tires. Not one single repair otherwise. It is by far, the best handling car I've ever owned. Handles like a sports car but is an amazingly capable SUV. It is very fast. I've owned lots of Mercedes, BMW's, and Porche over the years and this is by far my favorite car.
Not all cars are taken care of the same, seems like you take good care of yours. There are people who love their YUGO too.
@@dave3657Well, my F-Pace is a far cry from a Yugo. I really just did the scheduled maintenance. Nothing special.
I sold my S type F-Pace at 7 years and 19,000 miles. Never missed a beat. But I felt it was prudent to change, and I got a good price from Carvana!
I don't know man i think you're bullshitting us 😂
Far too many people avoid normal maintenance. Engines these days need frequent oil changes . Lots of ruined car engines out there , the owner saved money on oil changes.
Owner of a 2O12 Sorento here: 103,119 miles on it, flawless performance! Ain't ever getting rid of it!!! YOUR ENVY MAKES ME REJOICE!!!!!!!!!!!
Ticking time bomb !
6 time Lexus owner. I own the rule. You own an exception…
Flawless performance ? On a KIA ? I call BS or you have no standards for what classifies as “ flawless performance “
This guy is 100% right. Spot on with this top 8 list of least reliable cars.
Designed Obsolescence is intended because dealerships don’t make the kind of money that they need to survive when cars last 20+ years. That’s why Toyota quality is rapidly declining
I have 3 1999 Toyota Avalons and a 2001 Lexus IS300 all with the same engine and combined mileage of 800k miles on them. I will never buy another car. I do notice neither Toyota nor Honda were on this list. I will give Honda the same praise as I would give Toyota.
Doesn't matter what car you own, if you drive it hard and don't do any maintenance, it will eventually break down.
unless its a 68 Dodge Dart with a slant 6 and a 904......Local papers are littered with 15 year old cars with bad automatic transmissions. Buy a manual trans if you want to have it last. Im so fed up with modern cars. How does an OBDII car not throw a code and fail miserable on a smog test? Try and troubleshoot that in your garage.....
@@68pishta68 slant 6's were oil leakers
You cannot skimp on maintenance with these new vehicles. Use the best synthetic lubricants and change those lubricants often!
"Back to the 50s". Back then, very few cars lasted to 50 grand. Cars only had 5-digit odometers.
True. As late as the 60s a car that made it to 100k was cause for celebration.
24 years ago I needed a car. I did research and found a list of cars that were highly recommended by several outlets. I found the car.
I did not go to a dealership. I looked on the internet where I could get it at the best price. I found the right place and traveled to another state by plane and bought the car and drove it back home.
After the warranty was over I stopped taking the car to a dealership for check ups. I go to one of those guys who has his own shop and has a good reputation. If you go to a dealership for repairs they're gonna rip you off. Believe it's a sure thing.
That was 24 years ago and I'm still using the car. It has many miles on it and I call it "my Columbo Car."
7:28 specifically the Thetta II 2.0 GDI and 1.6T GDI. The 2.0 MPFI is a solid engine, the only work you will need to do is change the valve cover gasket around 60k which is an easy cheap job.
My advice would be stick with your old car. New cars are unreliable garbage
I drive a 2011 Kia Sportage, base package, manual transmission. Bought it for 8k cash. Kia undercoated it free of charge and it had 85k on the odometer. I just turned over 240,000 miles!
Still running like a champ with good engine compression. If I drive the highway with discipline and stay under 65 mph I'm still getting 30 miles to the gallon.
Regular service and regular oil changes go a long, long way.
I used to drive my cars to 200,000 miles now I’m afraid to be out of warranty
Alfa Romeo Stelvio. At 38,000 miles it started shutting off going down the road. Spent a month in the shop got it back was good for 500 miles the. Back in the shop for another 6 weeks. It was so bad we just bought a Grand Cherokee while it was in the shop and once it came back we just sold it to Carvana. Never buy another Alfa Romeo or Maserati again. Just in case y’all were wondering the new Dodge small SUV is basically the same vehicle.
Dear, please be more specific before posting. Which Stelvio did you purchase? Gasoline or Diesel? New or secondhand? If gasoline was a 2.0 or a V6? Otherwise ur message is totally useless
My 2025 Trax has 1.2 liters, smaller than my 2009 Harley Dyna Glide which has 1.56 liters(96 CI).
This explains why these vehicles sell for far less than their Toyota or Honda counterparts. Thanks for this information -- you helped me dodge these lemons.
50,000 miles mileage with a total engine failure, not true, it's all depends on how to take care of your car.
Thank the federal government for unrealistic standards and the UAW for outrageous costs.
Loved my 2013 Santa Fe Sport. Best car I ever had. I am 79 yrs old
I have always kept my vehicles 10+ years minimum, but I fear those days are gone for good. My 2001 Toyota Tacoma is at 507,000km/315,000 mi and still running strong BUT...... I know I'm on borrowed time. I've been shopping around and have concluded none of the current production vehicles are anywhere near as reliable as my old truck (but the prices have tripled!). IMO it's a combination of manufacturers just not caring anymore about quality design and being focused solely on profit margin + government mandated fuel efficiency and other regulations. I'm not looking forward at all to buying a new vehicle. 😐 Turbo charged engines and CVT's are just throw away junk.
Shop for a good used one. The new Toyota trucks and SUV's are plagued with problems. I'm keeping what we have forever.
In general, the turbocharge design invites many engine problems after certain milage. So no turbo engine please period!
If you run a turbo, you need to change your oil religiously and often. Nothing over 3k miles and run name brand synthetic oil. Always let the engine warm up some before driving
Turbos are like untreated high blood pressure at some point something's gonna pop!
@51AByou have a point and to that point they are built for turbo charging from the ground up for commercial use, not comparable to consumer cars, where they tack turbos on.
@51AB however true even Toyota has taken a hit on reliability since relying on turbos
@@JamesStover-gr3hwwords of wisdom here!
Have a 08 chevy silverado with 4 .8 and 2011 ford edge with 3 .5 . Both run well solid vehicles
I have a Toyota Raize which is much smaller and the weight is bearable for a 3 Cylinder /turbo c. My home is Bali and the traffic can be heavy no need for a fast Car, but I like that if you want to take over a Car, the engine responds and gives a kind of safety. Seldom is there an opportunity to go over 100 miles!
Sure glad that my skate board isn't listed.
Not sure what evidence backs this stuff up, but my 2018 Rogue just passed 168,000 miles. My 2015 Tahoe is at 193,000, but I did have to put a $5,000 transmission in this year. I guess thats what happens pulling horse trailers every weekend.
Thats just dumb. Shouldnt tow any thing with these vehicles
@@jakhamar55 Do you even know what a Tahoe is? Hint: it's not a tiny crossover like a Telluride/Palisade.
@@rich_svoboda Ah yes im sorry. I thought you were towing with your rogue. Tahoe is a different animal. I rented one once. Lots of power. Burned about a barrel of gas in a couple of days.
@@jakhamar55 No worries.
I agree that towing with a Rogue or similar should be avoided. I have a Tahoe as my daily driver and wish the miles per barrel was a littler better. LOL.
I believe these are new cars.
What's really scary is that it won't be too long before these are the only used vehicles available.
My last job contract was 8 years. I drove a 2018 rogue for 2 years for them. It had 32k miles, after contract was up it was at 186,000. I drove that absolute shit out of that vehicle, literally lived in it. Sometimes that engine didn't get turned off for 6-7 straight days. And even though the company paid for all maintenance, I still would only get oil change every 10-15k miles. Going waaaay over what I was supposed to
We have a 2010 2.0T Has 170k only problem has been motor mounts needed change twice, still running fine.
My 2015 Mazda 6 has over 150,000 miles on it and has never been in a shop for repairs. I do my oil changes at 5k and have never had an issue
Nisan transmission problems are notorious. I would simply avoid Nissans. I suppose if you really know which cars have the bad transmissions deals can be had because word is getting out about these disastrous cars.
I used to had a 2005 Nissan Sentra that I had for 10 years(had 185K miles on it before selling it) and no problems with the automatic transmission. Don't get an automatic transmission Nissan sedan(Maxima, Altima, Sentra) past gen 5(2000 - 2006) since the gen 6 sedans is where they use CVT and those are bad news. Get them with manual transmissions if you get a gen 6 or later Nissan sedan.
Currently have a 2008 Toyota Corolla CE(gen 10 Corollas are from 2007 to 2013) with over 214K miles and runs great especially the automatic transmission on it with no issues.
It's ironic that as technology improves, vehicles are becoming less reliable across the board. Even Toyota has multiple recalls on various vehicles nowadays. Meanwhile, my '08 Yaris soldiers on. 150K on the odometer, still has the original starter, alternator, fuel pump, water pump
Wouldn't buy anything but Toyota 2010 Tundra 2017 Avalon now a 2023 Camry had no problems
Mine is good and keeps going. It’s twenty five years old With a hundred thirteen miles on it. And she still looks good.
Land Rover y Jaguar are the best looking cars in the shop. I got lucky. Had 1999 Van der Plas. Like a small limousine. 4.0, extra 9” in the back, 4 HEATED SEATS, FOUR, CREAMY light brown leather, tray tables. English racing green. Wow! Couple guys said “you are very brave”. I loved it, but never found any other owners to say that.
Ford trucks have their problems too, in general transmission and engine. You want something new? Roll the dice and see what you come up with . Pretty much everything out there is junk, so get the best warranty and get rid of the thing before the warranty expires.
A friend of mine was an engineer for a large Bathroom supply company. His dream was to be an engineer for Ford . He finally got the job of his dreams and walked out a few years later
IMO. Full size pick up needs horses under the hood from a strong mechanical engine.
Turbo, GDI, simply stress the integrity of the motor.
full size truck needs a big lazy V8. IDK if it has 180 HP if it has 300+ ft/lbs torque at 1500 RPM.
LOL "Nissan Roque"... video's reliability didn't last 7 seconds
they are right about Hyundai and KIA tho.🤩
Mine is great 158k...

AI is not very reliable
10 gen accord 11 gen civic. The 2.0 and the 1.5 4 cylinder engines are boosted at modded Supra levels, in conjunction with direct injection and weak cylinder head bolts means engine failure is inevitable. My 2.0 accord had 2 engines before I had to let er go.
I have no complaints with my Nissan. But it's a 2006 Sentra.
I bought it in 2008. I still have it. It still runs good and has almost 500 thousand miles on it. 😊
All my VW’s have been very good; Golf GTI, Rabbit 2.5, 1.9 and 2.0 TDI, all have been great no real issues. Two had the DSG system. Is it a new thing with VW?

160k on my 2020 silverado custom trailboss, still.runing like the day i got her with 32miles on it thank.god
The current Corvette body style, C8, has had many transmission failures, computer & sensor failures, & etc. They're priced at roughly $100-200,000, depending on the variant, on options, & etc.
hmmmm... my 2017 V6 Jaguar F-Pace has 150K miles on it and is still working well. The only problem was a coolant leak (covered by warranty). Other than that its been normal maintenance. Could be that I change the oil every 5,000 miles and pay attention to all the other details like replaced plugs and ignition coils early, anti-freeze early, etc.. My opinion... if you follow any manufacturer's maintenance recommendations for modern cars, your car will have problems much earlier than it should.
Unnecessary Government regulations ( fuel economy and pollution crap) has caused overly complicated car designs
Don't forget a market hike $$$ of steel and aluminum that have caused the manufacturer to cut corners minimizing fabrication costs
it is an easy fix, stop making giant 5,000+ pound cars. The added weight makes them need bigger engines. There is no reason for a suv to be more than 3500 lbs unless it is a truck needed to pull heavy loads. My smallish Honda Fit holds 4 adults easily and has some cargo space. It weights 2500 pounds and uses a 1.5L 4cyl with 130HP. I get 30mpg around town and no one beats me off the line.
Wrong. Greed has destroyed the auto industry.
Greed destroys everything
Honestly, if I were the judge presiding over the Hyundai/Kia class-action, I'd throw it out. If you don't know by now these cars are garbage, that's on you. You don't get to play with fire and whine about the lighter maker if you get burned.
The governments around the world forcing manufacturers to produce complex unproven technology to increase fuel economy is what has killed reliability in vehicles. And in Semi trucks as well.
Holy Moses, THE CHEVY VEGA is #1 on the dang list. Yea havent been made in nearly 44 years but them things barely made 30k miles before a new engine.
My sister had one. Was a real mess.
I understand that they had aluminum blocks with no sleeves, apparently the technology wasn't behind the actual manufacturing of the block. I just believe in the old cast iron engines.

@@anonimous2451 😂😂😂
A LOT of these recent problems all come down to regulations related to emissions and being more efficient. Not necessarily saying those regulations shouldn’t be in place, they just cause lots of problems.
Other than that, it usually comes down to cost cutting.
Trying to meet unreasonable emissions and mileage standards
Yes, as I said in an earlier post, thank you Barack Obama!
Anyone remember the Cash for clunkers program? A lot of serviceable and low technology cars and trucks were junked at that time!
Most of these brands are well known for having problems for years now and people still buy them in spite of the fact that there are a couple of other brands that are well known for their reliability
The worst cars was the AMC cars. My parents bought a brand new 1978 AMC Concord. only 6 miles on the odometer. 2 days later, the starter went out. A year later, the transmission went out. These cars were pieces of crap!
MY grandparent's neighbor owns a 1981 amc eagle, little to no problems.
Thank God my Chevrolet HHR is not on here either. It has 59,000 miles 😅
And you wonder why Nissan is losing profits. Doesn’t stop at the Rogue. Had a Pathfinder and it was in the shop every other month. Did pick up a 2020 Ranger with the 2.3. After’19 Ford redesigned the engine and updated the transmission. You’ll find several with over 100k on them.
Any Hyundai model produced between the years 2005-2010 are the only ones that I will deal with.After that, their cars got prettier, but reliability started to tank hard.
Gonna skip over on Cyber Truck problems.
