Hi
Pls race GTI vs GLI
One video on mercedes benz slr McLaren review please sir request to you 🙏🙏🔥🔥
Mat you are clearly running out of ideas with your videos...
I want E46 M3 vs E55 AMG vs RS4 (the same year).
Mat’s house: gets robbed
Mat: googles help me carwow
Smart
Lol I would do dat
Or he would say "so what exactly happened... the robber emptied the living room in a stunning 10 minutes"
Everyone: when is the foot race comeing from mat and yianni
Me: *waiting for doug demuro collab*
@Mr Wolt stole your comment
@@HughRussell06 thx for telling
no doug demuro sucks. he is so cringe and his production quality is awful. Carwow, althought it is a corperation, is MUCH better. Matt Watson >>>>>> Doug

So Finally this list was topped by Takata👍👍 🤣🤣
Well over all globally it didn't :))
TAKATA G4NG
I know this isn't drag race but we need to see Bugatti in drag race.
TRUEEEEEE just imagine how amazing would it be
Stradman did one before with his if u want to watch that
@@dicepsio811 already watched it, but I want to se Matt drag race with Bugatti, thanks though
Lord Aleem said he would love to bring his Bugatti for a drag race with Carwow!
Buggati Veyron vs the 911 turbo s
2:07 Jeremy did always said he liked the rover 75
That Takata... my BMW E39 was recalled for the same reason (but driver airbag), the Gf made fun of me for it (get a Mercedes next time!) and just a few months later her A Class was also recalled for the airbag. I guess who laughs last...
I’ve seen the Ford Puma had some recalls for airbag failure.
If Ferrari made more 458 Italia’s it would’ve got the top spot easily lol
What problem it has?
@@dragosdobra9521 a bit over 1200 were recalled because the adhesive was prone to catch fire and soon the fire would spread to the whole car.

10:55 As a 206 lover, It's a pleasure to hear you say that the 206 is a good car ;) It would be nice if you drag raced it against its rivals. For example, a 206 RC (or GTI in the UK) versus a Clio 2 RS etc..
Ez win for clio 2rs
It has the most power yet the best
I like the small size of the 206, but I'm afraid I won't be able to fit in one easily (I'm about 6 feet tall) so it's the 307 for me or the 406, maybe.
@@damilolaakanni I'm 181cm tall, so pretty close to 6 feet right? And I don't have any problems driving a 206. The seat is quite comfortable for a small car. However there is almost no room left for the rear passenger and I don't care lol

This Mazda boot strut thing happened to a Mazda I had from 2013. Bloody thing wouldn’t stay open. Also had the Honda Jazz airbag issue which was also fantastic. I’m very lucky with recalls
How about buying a European car for once
@@vodafoneuser1690 I did, a Volvo and it has had no problems so I’ll be sticking Europe
Hey CarWow,
Great video as always. Needed to cover recalling of items in my assignment. This has helped massively, thanks.

1:22 - I believe the reason why it’s a legal requirement for indicators to flash quicker when a bulb has gone is so that once a driver notices that their indicator is flashing quicker than it should, they will realise that their bulb has gone out and, depending on where it was blown, was misleading other traffic into thinking it was going to go straight on but was actually going to turn either left or right until the blown bulb was replaced by a new bulb.
WRONG.
When one indicator lamp blows the resistance in the circuit changes and the relay behaves differently because it ‘sees’ more resistance.
I work at Mazda here in Germany, we also had Airbag recalls. This included the Mazda 2 (DE), Mazda 3 (BK and BL), Mazda 5, Mazda 6 (GH) and a few CX-7s for the very same reason as Honda, Toyota and Lexus. Most of them were Passenger Airbags.
I own a Mercedes C180 and it was also recalled because of the passenger airbag. Almost every car built in Brazil until the airbag scandal had Takata airbags.
Thanks for the heads up, just got my E46 booked in for the recall haha, would never have known! 🥴
Fun facts and Great delivery 😊 good job on this one 😁👍
In the 2000s, Peugeot 405s built in Iran by IKCo caught fire spontaneously and doors became locked! This led to tragic death of some people unfortunately! They fixed the issue and continued production of Peugeot 405 until around last year. I guess they are still manufacturing some version of it today!
My dad owned an A4 made between 2011 and 2015. He never took it in for the recall and sold it for a 2016 A4 and Audi wouldn’t leave him alone about it until he told them he didn’t own the car any more
@WΑΝΤ Ś Έ'X !!! lοοκ my νιdeο ! no he sold the car because he wore out the wheel bearings
@@ethans7875 Dude thats a bot lol
@@straightbusta2609 ik haha
I had my ST recalled. Something to do with a risk of the cylinder block cracking, they fitted a new sensor as a result.
It was a while ago when my friend had a renault laguna 1997 2.0 litres. He removed the factory stereo to fix some sort of issue, when he was putting it back, which required the same simple process as the removal, just clicking together few plastic connector, the passenger side airbag blow up and smack him on the face, he literally went unconscious. But guess what, the stereo was working perfectly afterwards.
That's why you disconnect the battery first🤣🤣
A month ago, we replaced our 2006 Toyota Corolla Verso, and we realised we were unable to sell it due to it having an outstanding recall. And ... surprise surprise ... it was an airbag defect!! But sure enough, we had it repaired in no time and sold it on. (And btw we got a 2017 VW Passat as a replacement!)
Audi heater element. That is a major job. Usually you need to remove large parts of the dashboard to get to the heater element. In some modells it can easilly be more then a days job.
5:03 the only car with oil cooled brakes. Nice Feature! At least they last a bit longer😂
CarWOW that was a great vid Mat!
Another good one is a Honda Jazz brake disc fault which was fitted faulty by a lad who worked on the line in the Swindon plant 2 processes back from where I worked at the time, i remember the day a few of us realised the fault, we told the line / section manager and it affected a run of cars built for north/ south Africa... funniest thing is the the fault was noticed on one of the last 10 to be built in that 7500 batch for Africa 🤣
A couple of months later, the Hyundai Tucson recall also affected Kia Sportages built between 2015 and 2020
Incorrect! I’m a Nissan technician, the recall is literally a rubber bung, that goes onto the child lock. It takes 10 seconds
I'm a technician also...I remember that one...I wouldn't even call that a recall imo
What is wrong with the guy naming Chevys, he seemed to have lost his "spark" 😬😂
Maybe he missed a “Beat”
Maybe he lost his “trax”
Mazda also had many models affected by both drivers and passenger air bag inflator recalls. Far more than the strut recall
My 2008 123D is currently awaiting a recall for heater wiring, already had one for the power cable from battery to engine and also had an 'Enhancement' for timing chain tensioner (Didn't go well, engine spat it's chain 9 months later and took threat of legal action to get resolved) Still have that car 70000 miles later.
Hey Mat Thanks for uploading your content is always the best my favourite videos are the drag races with yianni
Hi
Hyundai/Kia just recalled just about every car you made in the past couple of years. Apparently the ABS board could short circuit and cause an engine fire
like ur videos guys yall make unique content. keep it up !!!
Need to make a list about when manufacturers refused to recall like what Peugeot did with that same 206, when it was discovered that engines weren’t turning off with the ignition, resulting in overheating & catching fire
When I worked in a bmw dealer I could do those airbag recall swaps out on the 46 in about 5 minutes. Got a tidy hour book time for it too
Ahh yes, my A4 B8 2011 was one of the recall cases and the first time I pulled up at Audi, they let me wait 3 hours for nothing, because they've dropped the new heating unit which they were about to install. I had to appear there a second time a few weeks later and was not given any "refund" for my wasted time. Thanks for that lol

Mr.Jeremy Clarkson.
Awesome video! In the US, I had to take my 2017 Ford Escape (Ford Kuga for you guys) in because of door latch issues!😸😸
Here in South Africa, between 2015 & 2017, a lot of brand new Ford KUGA's caught on fire, BRAND NEW!!! Apparently it was a cable under the bonnet that got very hot and caught fire, fortunately only one person lost his life because of it, they also had to RECALL a lot of KUGA's
I have the New Toyota Yaris Hyrbid 2020 , got it around this march , it already has a recall regarding the "ECU"
i was working at Chevrolet, doing warranty when we had the recall in 2012/2013.. Kept me busy for a few months.
On my 2003 S Type all my brake pipes corroded. Complete brake failure (electronic handbrake did not work in addition to brake pedal) circa 2006 from memory. Repaired under warranty. Never heard if recall happened.
Had to stop the car by going down the gear on 6spd auto box and then put it into reverse ........maybe the reason my auto box gave problems 2015 until 2017 when I sold it.
25k for car, 3k for extended warranty and about 3k in repairs. 31k plus service costs for 14 years of luxury driving with only that one brakedown which happened near home so I was not stranded. Pretty fair all things considered.
The original Audi TT was recalled for downforce issues at motorway speeds. And so was the revised Jaguar XK8. Think both manufacturers slapped a lip spoiler on the rear of them.
Working in a merceses and vag mechanic shop ive seen a lot of recalls for most of vw hybrids and electric cars, something about the seal on the battery pack, also on mb w213 one wire has to be overridden under the hood.
Every car and stat presented is good to know, thank you. Please re-run the stats as; the number of recalls vs the number of that model produced. per capita so to speak..

*"Karens"*
THHHHHHHHHIS!!!!! is carwow.
that would be the best collab intro of human history
I figured the Toyota one would be the rust problem in the Tacoma’s. didn’t know about the airbag problem though
Recalls seem more common here in the US, just my cars that have had recalls or had warranty extensions were my 07 Cooper S, 14 Countryman S, and 09 SAAB 9-5, as for my family my Dad’s 84 Jeep, 13 Ram, my brother’s 04 Titan, and my mom’s Mazda CX-9

Do you have to repeat your own comment for more likes? Twat.
Only car I’ve had recalled was a 2003 Clio for the Bonnet Latch problem that may cause it to fly up smashing the window and roof
Mat love the video very interesting 😎
I worked at fiat at the time of the brake pipe recall. Fiat used to pay 4 hours to replace the pipes. I got that used to doing them that i could repipe the whole car and bleed thr system in 30mins. Shame i never got a bonus back then :(
have owned a few of those actually! had a 2002 corolla that was recalled, was something to do with the passenger side airbag not being torqued correctly on some versions. Had a 97 astra, didnt know about the recall on that until now, I assume a previous owner had it done although it had very low miles (78k) so probably wasnt that effected. Briefly had a 206, 2001 reg, didnt know about the recall on this either although it suffered a bigger problem with the rear axle being made of cheese! I currently own a Volvo S60 effected by the seatbelt recall, still waiting for an appointment to get it sorted..... I seem to have a habit of buying cars with recall issues.....
The e46 drivers air bag did get replaced on the air bag recall it came shortly after the passenger air bag recall was released, my E46 was recalled for both passenger and driver air bag
Thanks Matt, we have a jazz & 1 series with Tamara recall letter
Who else would like to see a Fiat Panda 4x4 from the ‘90 in an off-road test?
ευχαριστώ πολύ! 🇬🇷
Very informative, thank you!

"nope I don't remember any of those either"
me who spends hours on the Chevy website and spins my head 180° when I see one: same 😅
Car manufacturers don't have to recall. They get their actuaries and lawyers to work out how much it costs to fix something vs the legality of the fault, damages, fines, reputational damage and other liabilities of not fixing it.
Volvo had the same issue on their new cars not so long ago. But they realised it pretty early on. Still a couple of recalls.
This year Chevrolet recalled Captiva 2021, It was to change its ac fan is what they told us.
i just have to say the obvious, all new cars should be recalled since the large screen and no physical buttons is a hazard. not to mention the wireless tech and flickering lights on cars.
vw would go broke af lol
Ok boomer
No physical buttons is the real hazard. Screens are fine. Anyone trying to touch the screen while driving INSTEAD of using buttons has chosen to receive the Darwin award.
@@rdmz135 buttons are tactical, dont require much attention like a screen does.
and a screen does a lot of content that makes everything worse, and should not be in a vehicle. just think about it.
What flickering lights??
With regards to the Audi recall for heater problem, I know an Audi A5 that set on fire and burned to a crisp.
My Toyota Auris/Corolla from 2007 got recalled for the airbag 😄
You showing a pic if the new Sorento makes me want you to review it.
Great video mat. OMG
Hi Matt, what about the worst number of recalls for a car? I think my polestar 2 has been recalled 3 or maybe 4 times already. Is any other car that bad or worse?
My partner's 03 plate Yaris has had its passenger airbag done twice! Recalled on two separate occasions.
I really want a dodge durango review.
You'll never find one on here.
@@gavinwyllie7855 :(
I had a 2008 1 series BMW with an outstanding recall for the heating system blower replacement. Apparently it could get hot enough to start or a fire... go figure
Carwow you also forgot the later Vauxhall recall with the Zafira B with the dodgy wiring
I drove a 1997 Opel Astra Caravan between 2005 and 2018. Never had any issues with the brakes and I've never heard anything about any recalls. Could it have been a problem exclusive to the Vauxhall "version"?
I had a mazda 2 that was recalled recently for airbag issues
New carwow vid time to turn my volume up so I can actually hear it
You forgot bentley, and a few more, very nice review😉
Vauxhall should fix the problem with the insignia, I've heard multiple times that at or after 150k miles an oil seal fails and starvs the engine of oil causing it to cease.
Mat when are you going to do a car review on Subaru forester and a drag race too?
2009 Mazda 3 in New Zealand booked in early next month, to replace the whole drivers seat because of the height adjuster mechanism may crack. Which could result in the seat exhibiting an abnormal noise or potentially the seat may move out of position while driving.
It only just passed the last wof because of the height adjustment in the seat currently has excessive movement!.
im not surprised...mazda is singularly the crappiest import in nz where underbody rust is just horrible! I have never seen any other manufacturer have a poor underbody protection system.
Mazda also have the takata air bag debacle!
Recalling some vehicles that are way past their best!
My daily driver (w211 non facelift e class) had a recall too, had a problem to the sbc brake system (eould fail ffter 300,000 brake uses) thay had to be revised by mercedes to improve the reliability
Good to see that Porsche wasn't mentioned in that list shows there a reliable manufacturer👍
I have a 2016 Hyundai Tucson and in July a have to change the abs module thanks to the recal.
But can you do a review on the RSQ8-R please
We have a W204 C-Class Facelift which has been recalled twice because of AirBag issues…. but I don’t really mind it because i know they would probably work perfectly now 😂
Scary to think about how most of us got by using faulty airbags that could literally tear your face apart! Thankfully😲
However, problems like these in UK weren't that severe as the ones in the US. Because, as you know, in the US, Hyundai and Kia's Nu and Theta engines: it could bog down the engine, or worse: IT CAUGHT FIRE!!!
When I was a child in 1st grade I used go around in a Peugeot version of the Milando. Because at the time my mom and dad both had jobs.
Cool story
What the hell is Milando? Dont you mean Berlingo?
Mazda 6 drivers seat coming off its rails. That sounded like an exciting one
14:13 my M5 competition 2020 was recalled because faulty start/stop that can automatically start the ignition 👎 it happened with me when I parked my car near restaurant at afternoon when I locked the car it automatically started the ignition it was a simple fix with the ecu and was done and it is now running perfect and it was free of cost 😭
I'm sure Mercedes were also caught up in the Takata airbag situation.. Looking at my C180's history they replaced the airbag and in the notes it states Takata Replacement recall.. interesting 🤔
yeah a lot of mercs and other manufacturers had to get their airbags replaced...it was in the millions or so.My bosses C63 also got a letter for her airbag replacement.
Last year My GLs 2018 model. Had rats in it and water soaked below the foot floor which caused all the electronics to Mal function. It is still a mystery how did the Rats come in. Could that be a manufacturing fault? Cauz the servicing guys didn't find anything. Said some window might be open🤷. I believe it was the AC ducts
They replaced both passenger and drivers airbag in my e46. But I'm in North America also and not the UK.
The toyota 86, a gasket melted , stopping oil flow to the engine, destroying the entire motor.
Takata makes some nice looking green racing harnesses, but boy do they suck at making airbags
So there was no recalls on the Ford Kuga because the engine bay would spontaneously combust and leave the car up in flames. Here in South Africa we had plenty of those
11:54 what's that linkages wierd bolts and stuff on the gearknob zone on that BMW?
