I am glad you mention the Wagoneer! I think it is insane to have a single car payment that could pay the mortgage on 2 houses. Not to mention the reliability issues for which Jeep is known. I saw an ad that you could lease a Wagoneer for just $899/month. I was floored. I love this channel! Thanks for all you do!!!
Qq😊
Thank you!
Do you feel the same way about the Escalade and Navigator?
@@tonyg9519navigator for sure!!
@@tonyg9519escalade trucks hold their value pretty well. Plus, those are luxury suvs
Half the vehicles on this list are rental lot and fleet lease staples, including the Grand Wagoneer. I rented one a few months ago and true to form, it handled like garbage with only 20k on the clock. Great video and extremely accurate.
For your information Jeep owners purchase their vehicles for patriotic Branding name reasons. Most Jeep owners prefer to be stranded on the side of the road patriotically standing proud of their loyalty to Jeep than getting caught driving a reliable but un-American Branded vehicle like Japanese or German brands. Best of all it's a
"Jeep Thing", and to all Jeep fans I salute you patriotic stance on keeping it
Unreliable! 💩
As long as customers keep buying POS vehicles, then there’s no reason why the manufacturer needs to build a better quality product.
My mother used to buy only Mercedes Benz, but when they started becoming unreliable she switched to Lexus and will continue buying them until she passes away
One issue is that rental car companies and some corporate buyers buy whatever they can get their hands on.
@@mikecumbo7531 True, but when buying fleet vehicles, when they’re in the repair shop, the business is loosing money.
In the early to mid 90s, Toyota donated several Camry’s with the V6 and 5spd to California to use as their Highway Patrol vehicles.
California LOVED them, but wouldn’t buy them because they’re a Japanese company.
The Ford Crown Victoria was an amazing vehicle that could take a lot of abuse.
I had a friend in Seattle who is a Taxi driver. He would get 350K - 400K miles from his Crown Victoria’s. He now uses Camry hybrids
Boils down to lowest price for them.
I have a 2013 Lexus RX350 with 170,000 miles on it and it drives like it’s brand new. Lexus all day, every day 😊
Why is my 2004 Mazda tribute with Ford duratec engine still working solid with over 200.000 miles already? It ia a V6 duratec engine.
Buy anything with Totyota/Honda/Mazda/Subaru badge. You owe me 14 minutes of your life. You're welcome
Sorry my husband works for GM Ford and Stalantis suppliers buying the 3 recommended brands is not politically a correct choice for us.
😂❤
Hyundai?
Honda quality sucks bad.
Take subaru off your list.
Thank you for review! Absolutely agree with you!
Very informative! Thank You!
I can testify that the 2019 Jeep Compass is crap after 100K miles but I was one of the lucky ones. A Jeep dealership service manager told me that some customers were having those same problems with less than 7K miles on their Compass. I guess that was supposed to make me feel better. Last year it got totaled by someone who didn't pay attention to a red light....Yay! Now I have a new Subaru forester wilderness. 😊
Hahahaha. A crash with great timing.
I've had my eco boost ford fusion and haven't had any problems with the 2.0 turbo. It now has 123,000 Miles.
I've been pretty satisfied with my 2017 Jeep Renegade. Mines a 6-speed manual transmission, gets great gas mileage and I've put over 100k miles on it and had no major issues, just regular maintenance stuff. I'd never buy a brand new vehicle, anyway. They lose so much money as soon as you drive them off the lot.
At this point, Mazda is making the only sane vehicles out there. Safe, attractive, feature-driven, and fast--at a fair price point and no useless EV garbage. Toyota's dealers are gouging prices, and everyone else is trying to figure out how to sell EVs to a US market that is, for the most part, rejecting them.
Toyota will always be king in dependability!! I have a 4runner..will tun easily 300k miles!
Thank you for the information
great videos man straight to the piont ..thanks man
Kudos to Mazda for having a nice selection of CX-5’s available when we needed a new vehicle. Our 2023 CX-5 is awesome. Toyota is failing to get vehicles to the market in a timely way. The dealer wanted a $500 non refundable deposit with no guarantee of even getting a vehicle within a year. That’s poor customer service.
I got a CX5 fully loaded in 2022 and it’s awesome. Added a Lexus NX recently and it’s nice too, they only have a few on the lot
I am driving my sixth Toyota, and my third Rav 4. I may buy a Subaru Outback next year, or just another Rav 4.
@@janicefreedman8173 you could upgrade to a Lexus NX, it’s a fancy rav4, I did and love it
They’re hard to find because they sell before they’re even built.
Let’s do a topgun test:
RAV4 hybrid Vs 350h Vs CRV hybrid and RDX ICE 😊
I appreciate your honest and straight forward information.
Great video, No surprise on the list.
I only drive Toyota since college, from Corolla, MR2, Yaris, Highlander, Camry to Prius I am driving right now. U might say it's a bit boring, but Never have a big problem ( except oil leak after 300,000 miles of the early years ). Indeed, it saved me a lot of money and less headaches.
For 300k miles, you already got more than your money's worth!
My wife and I were looking at Kia and Hyundai SUVs and found out our insurance was going to be $1,500 dollars more. We ended up getting a 2023 Acura MDX SH-AWD and the insurance only went up $300 dollars.
What a smooth and Quiet ride. Wife and I absolutely love it!
What ! We live on Long Island and we bought a new Kia sportage and our insurance went down and that GIECO insurance
@@caditech16 Might be because i live 17 miles from the city. My insurance company said they are the number one cars stolen in my area.
Pre-2021 (or 2022, can’t recall the exact year) Kias were stolen because they did not have immobilizers. They now have them.
@@joematty1353That must used, the new with push button start are not a issue. It was the key ignition that was stolen. Kia and Hyundai in general are the best out.
Agree totally. There are many more not mentioned I would not buy. But your top 10 list is a start. :)
This is great information. Thank you
Hi Shari, great video 👍
I completely agree with all these vehicles that everyone should avoid buying new. For a reason, I think a pre-owned Jeep Grand Wagoneer going to be sort after when they age. The Jeep Grand Wagoneer tend to have a cult following reputation.
Thanks for your insight!
What do you think of the newer model mazda put out the mazda cx50?
I would like to have your advice on what is better to buy between a hybrid or a phev. Same brand, brand new, same price, because of the incentives. Somebody says that the phev is more complicated and more expensive to repair. Talk about Kia sorento.
I have a 2018 hyundai tucson diesel engine and im glad it isn't on this list because i haven't had any issues with it
Cool list
The best way to see if you’re going to enjoy any vehicle is to rent one for a week or so. This will let you see if it’s right for your needs.
Then check with Consumer Reports and Edmonds to see the reliability, comfort level, customer satisfaction etc.
The author of THIS "review" doesn't seem to care what CR has to say. He is either too lazy to do any research OR he likes keeping his head up his arse and remaining ignorant!!
Good idea but not everything out there is available to rent..the reviews and TH-cam videos like this one is a great way to help make that decision as you say 👍🏾
Thanks for another great video, Shari. I suppose the people who buy these lousy cars value advertising more than research.
Without advertising how would you even know that a particular vehicle exists?
Excellent list as always! No surprises on this list - if anyone watches well known TH-cam car mechanics such as Car Wizard or Scotty Kilmer, this is exactly what they say over and over in trying to caution people about wasting their money. If there is one saving grace these days it's that none of these bad choices are "cheap" anymore. That used to be how some folks got suckered into buying a lemon (Dodge Journey or Caliber for example), but now with even the terrible options costing a lot of money, I would _hope_ that makes people think twice and do a little more research before buying.
Chrysler, Dodge, Ram and Jeep are now owned by Stillantis, which can only manufacture a POS vehicle.
The Jeep Renegade is a Fiat 500X. The new Dodge Hornet is a Peugeot. The list goes on.
In the early 2000s, Nissan sold out to Renault, so now you know why Nissan’s quality has been declining.
GM gets most of its parts from China.
A lot of Fords, GM are made in Mexico. I would Never knowingly buy anything that is made in Mexico, after all WE the PEOPLE are now supporting 6 million Illegal Invaders from Mexico through our Welfare system, so why support them in their own country?
Nobody believes those clowns. No matter how much they bad mouth Hyundai-Kia, Hyundai-Kia keeps on selling!
#1. GM,
#2. Toyota,
#3. Ford,
#4. Hyundai-Kia 👏👏👏,
#5. Stellantis,
#6. Honda;
USA sales rankings.
Hyundai-Kia doubled sales in only 20 years. Only a few hundred thousand units behind Toyota. Hyundai-Kia will surpass Toyota within 3 years to become #2 in the USA!!
@@CKY1942 WELL , Thank you for your information.
I’ve lived for 60 years without your intelligence. I don’t know how I survived
lol . Don't know how to respond or react..
Scotty Kilmer is the KING of "click baiters"! He used to hate Chevys, then he drove a Chevy "Spark" while on vacation. He couldn't stop raving about how GREAT this "Korean Sh**t Box" was. Then he became a Chevy fan-boy, AGAIN! His FIRST love is still his 1994 Toyota Celica, the GREATEST car ever built!
Highly appreciate your video!
Enjoy your vids, thanks for posting.
What is the good mini or small suv. Thank you
I agree with your assessment…
Any thoughts about the VW Tiguan? My Tiguan turned 13 yo and a week later the Chain belt started jumping and would cost $5000 to repair. I had just put $3500 in it three weeks ago for a different issue. Guess I will look at Mazda and Honda CRV, but loved how the Tiguan had great visibility and comfortable seats lol...
It's unfortunate that I'm now seeing this after having a renegade for almost a year. Now it's considered "Totaled" with just a minor scratch. Everything happens for a reason I supposed.
jeez who pays 100k for a jeep.
stupid people... they''re everywhere.
Rich people 😂😂😂
People with no
Sense.
Lot's of dumb people 😂
Good video! We are considering buying a new CR V likely a 2024. I have a couple of reservations which are the 1.5 litre turbo with the oil dilution complaints and head gasket problems which are new to me. Are these items still an issue to your knowledge? Thank you!
I Would consider the Toyota Rav4 or the Mazda CX-5 or 50, these two have naturally aspirated engine options (instead of turbo) and traditional torque convertor transmission's (instead of CVT) with great consumer ratings!
I traded my 2017 CRV in after one year because the oil dilution was so bad. What made me angry was that Honda wouldn’t admit they had a problem or stand behind their vehicle. In China they were required to buy all their vehicles back from consumers because of the faulty Earthdreams engine.
I've had a Jeep Compass as a rental a couple of times. What a POS. Not surprised there are a lot of Jeeps on this list. I have a Ford Escape, but an old (2009) one when they were Mazdas. Over 210K miles with no issues.
👍🏻👍🏻 Keep them coming.
Good job 😮
Ford Explorer and Escape had a mentioning, but Edge was spared. Does it mean Edge is fine? I’m seriously considering buying an ST.
I have a 2021 Equinox that I reseached over a year prior to buying and I have been pleased with it. Of course I get my cars serviced when they need them and I also take care of them. I've heard that the new Equinox aren't at good, but my 2021 is perfect.
7:00
If they (Chevy/GM) can't master the trad gas engine that has been around for 100 years+, then why would you think they can go electric (newer tech) and master it?
Got news for ya Sherlock, the EV came BEFORE any ICE. NEWER TECH? LMFAO! You really should have stayed in school and finished eighth grade!
@@TheOzthewiz
Thanks for taking time away from your pride parade to comment.
@TheOzthewiz You also need to do your research as well.
The first internal combustion engine was invented in 1860, even Carl Benz had the first car with an ICE in 1886. The first electric vehicle was invented in 1890.
What are you talking about?
Electric cars came BEFORE ICE vehicles more than a hundred yrs ago! There is NOTHING NEW under the Sun. Btw, GM did have a GREAT EV in 1990. It was the "EV-1", but the oil companies paid GM to discontinue it! I wonder WHY?
Great one bro, waiting to see Rav4 hybrid vs NX350h. Thanks a lot
Thank you
Excellent
What’s your opinion on 2023 or 2024 Nissan Rogue? Thanks!
Average vehicle. Okay, but not the safest choice for long term reliability.
I agree with your list. It's just too bad the Explorer is such a bad vehicle. It's really a nice looking SUV and Ford should really do a better job with this one.
Years ago it was one of the best
Today's American vehicles have a really sharp design but it's really lipstick on a pig. It's a pity because they make some nice looking vehicles that i wouldn't spend the money on.
@@richardbaumgart2454Same with German cars, just beautiful works of human ingenuity…until you, you know, drive them.
Sometimes I wonder if the ratings rise and fall, according to the payoffs. Seems to me that the Ford EScape got such low ratings. We are on our second Escape, and for the money spent, we got our money's worth. They are superior to both Toyota and Honda, in both visibility, and ride comfort.The new RAV's have a rough ride and por visibility. From what I have read, Escapes are the best sellers. Another thing is that in some years, some SUV's are the one and same thing as their competitor, and only the decals are different.
@@gordonschuk9925Escapes are a best seller because they are cheap. I had a 2005, and a 2014 that I passed on to my son.
Mazda, Honda, Toyota & Subaru to buy
Great information and great presentation
Not only is the interior of the Blazer cheap, so is the ride. I had to drive one for a few weeks, so I know. With just 67,000 miles on my '08 LS2 Trailblazer SS, I'll be driving that for some time to come.
You can add the 2024 Chevy trax too. Window problems, and speakers went out.
Already? Yikes😢
I bought a 2024 Chevy trax lt and it is awesome in body style and interior and digital screens and love it so far
Thank Shari. I getting ready to buy a new automobile next week so I read this just in time. We are elderly and need a vehicle that’s easy to get into. Kinda leaning towards a Toyota. My jeep grand Cherokee is hard to get into
The Toyota is a great vehicle. Excellent choice! 👌
For reliability & low maintenance costs just buy a Honda,Nissan,or Toyota!!! Subaru & Mazda also make excellent vehicles. The Japanesse have cornered the market on reliability,low maintenance costs & resale value.
Remove nissan from the list
Great video don’t have one showcasing the best suvs you can buy
I had a VW DSG, very smooth and lasted 200,000 plus miles…. So not all dual clutch transmissions are bad.
I work on a lot of police cars specifically a lot ford explorers they take a beating and yes they break but I would consider them more reliable then the average suv however I cannot say anything about the sync 3 and touch screen responses controls ect.
Totally agree with your list!
My last car was a brand new jeep compass. I liked it for 6 months until the center screen would randomly stop working. Also the car “jumped” randomly while driving. I’ve never experienced anything like that before with any of my previous cars. I traded the compass in for a Mazda cx-90 recently and I’m never looking back.
I am very happy with my twins of Mazda CX 5 . I have 2 Mine and hers!!
Same for me. Also have 2 CX-5 and very happy with them. A 2016 model and a 2020 model. Both are excellent cars.
thank you
What about the hybrid ford escape?
Thanks 👍🙏🇨🇦
The only surprise for me on this list was the Chevy Blazer. I thought it was a better vehicle after last updates. What a shame, it is such a beautiful car; let's wait for the eletric version then.
In regards to the Wagoneer looks like some people just make way too much money and really don't mind lightning it all on fire like you said, pretty poor way to use your money.
Check Consumer Reports about the REAL TRUTH regarding the Blazer. This video is really handing out the BULLS**T!!
The new 2024 re designed Trax SUVs look a lot better. GM is not known for + SUVs 2020s.
Just rented a blazer last week in Florida. It was very meh and just felt cheap. Id never want one after driving it
Don't listen to this click bait mf.
I have one it's been perfect
Lookswise the Blazer is like the rough draft for the new Trax. Of course, "just remove size" is a great way to make a design language work - it's why the Pontiac Vibe looked ok while the Aztek was infamously ugly.
Good morning Shari,
Thanks so much for your reviews.
I enjoy watching all of your detailed content.
Keep them coming !,
Doc
Thank you 😊🙏
what about Ssang Yong Torres EVX any opinion?
Our 2012 Equinox with the 2.4 was awesome! Never burned or leaked any fluids.I had to replace a $50 part in 2022.113k miles when we traded it.
If you bought a Toyota Rav 4 in 2012 you wouldn't want to be getting rid of it and would be worth 3x the money resale now, or more compared to the Equinuts.
Despite the reliability the Rav 4 is on of the ugliest looking vehicle in my opinion @@richardbaumgart2454
Thats just about broken in for a Toyota.
Not talking about the past here in this video.
Welcome to 2023s version of junk.
@@richardbaumgart2454Toyota sucks
I have a 2006 Matrix, manual transmission. Last fall I actually had to put a new clutch in, which I've been putting off for a couple years, well, at least a year. All in all I have spent abiut 15,000 for all repairs and maintenance. I will say I do keep up on everything whether it's tune ups or tires or any noise I hear. It probably is time to get a new car but I can't bring myself to spend that kind of money and nobody makes standard transmissions anymore. I hate automatics.
I have a 2024 Subaru Ascent, it's okay, I previously had a 2021 Toyota Highlander and I found the Toyota to be more comfortable and a smoother ride.
People…buy what you want as a matter of fact just lease it. Not everyone wants a Toyota honda or subaru
Current F60 countryman doesn’t have timing chain issue. Thats an issue with the R60.
The GM 3.6 is a redesigned motor. It’s the LGX 3.6 that has new and improved timing chains, guides and tensioners. The motor has been out for a couple of years now and I haven’t heard anything bad about it.
It's alright, stills goes thru timing chains lol
EXCATLY! That is THE 3.6L that is in the NEW Blazer! The author of THIS video, obviously didn't do any research such as reading Consumer Reports! He prefers instead to keep his head up his arse and remain ignorant. If you check my comment above, I said that CR has found THIS motor as reliable as a Toyota or Honda. FULL STOP!
@@TheOzthewiz ok 🤣 but not the rest of the car is reliable and worth any quality lol
The horse has left the barn, it's too little too late.
@@TheOzthewiz CR is always true to form...they don't look at a product's longevity down the road. My mom always bought stuff according to CR and it mostly seemed like junk to me.
Love my 23 rs traverse
Had 2018 2921
No problems
V6 3.6 lot of power 27 miles gal
We have a equinox no problems that you mentioned it’s a2015 brought it used
Didn't know escape also has some issue over time I'm about to buy one because of the interior design. Any comments about nissan xtrail, or Mazda tribute? Really appreciate 🙏🙏
ford has to buy min escape back because of all the electrical issues i bought it new last July been in shop ten times
Which one of the following is the best Kia sportage hybrid, Toyota Corolla Cross hybridor Mitsubishi outlander pveh or Hyundai Touson hybrid?
Toyota
What do you think about ford Everest
My vw get excellent gas mileage plus I drove another since 2010.
We purchased a 2017 Ford Escape and have had nothing but problems with it, I wouldn’t recommend it either. It had two recalls and now it’s completely not running because of an issue with the engine all while we’re still making payments on it.
I did not have a bad experience with my 2020 Jeep compass so I guess some people get bad cars. Some people just look up and get a good car.
I have a2019 ford escape, I really haven't had no problems with my car its been a pretty good car.
Got 2019 equinox red line addition love it.
What is better than the v6 blazer?
My 2023Jeep Compass is in the shop. It needs a new motor. ugh. I bought it in April 23.
Oh my gosh!
I agree
My friend ordered they Toyota sienna need wait 3 years in Canada. 60k for xle really fk up
Here in US, a USED RAV4 goes for MORE than a NEW RAV4! Waiting 3mo for a vehicle is NOT FUN! Hey, if you would like a NEW RAM 2500, the dealers have a 480day supply.......NO WAITING!!!
The Jeep Renegade is actually just a rebadged Fiat 500 AWD. They're the exact same car. Stillantis changed the name because they knew Fiat had such a bad reputation. 😂
The ONLY Fiat left in this country is the "500" which is ALWAYS rated at the bottom! lol
Unfortunately the dealer service departments seem to be a huge part of the reliability problem. The expert service they proclaim is non existent at the dealership where I bought my SUV. every time my oil is changed the oil life fails to be reset and on one service visit one of my lock lugs was removed and not reinstalled but they offered to sell me another set. Also the tire that it was missing from developed a sidewall bubble and had to be replaced.
The 1.5 newer Escapes are good, it’s a total different than the1.5 ecoboom from the older generation.
You can still get the Fiat 500X? We test drove one, along with a Jeep Renegade, about a year after they came out. Our route took us down a side street with a speed bump. The Renegade bounced over it no problem (but it did have something loose behind a panel). When we drove the Fiat, we took the speed bump a lot slower - maybe 20 km/h - and the rear suspension completely bottomed out producing a nasty jar through the cabin. Immediate loss of interest.
I still drive my 98' Ford Fiesta, in 25 years still do 16 km/l or 37,6 mpg
Watching from the UK I remember when Jeep produced good looking vehicles, not anymore they are just awful to look at and they have a reputation similar to Land Rover. BTW I have a 2016 discovery 4. ( no comments please LOL )
There is only one real Jeep, the Wrangler
Nissan rogue platinum was my choice a solid modern family suv ill sell it before the warranty goes out so far its holding its value nicely
Greetings from southern Ontario Canada we have a group of journalists called AJAC automotive journalists association Canada they take a large group of vehicles and make a yearly announcement for the best of the bunch and given an award for every segment
I can only agree.
The jeep Chrysler are well pos. I have a vw tiguan I haven't had a issue with it at all the ride is great. I also have a life time power train warenty just In case
Isn’t the Fiat brand closed in Canada as we speak? As far as the Jeep Renegade I don’t see them at Chrysler dealerships that much, just unsold Ram pick up trucks.
Always remember what FIAT means fix it again Tony
FunFact: the RAM 2500 is the MOST plentiful vehicle on the Planet at 480days supply! If stellantas stopped building RAM 2500s today, they would have still have a YEARS' supply of trucks!
Scotty K the YT mechanic source bashed Fiat often.
@@DavidLLambertmobile Scotty K Toyota man, he’s all misinformed drama.
