    As a retired mechanic, I'm not surprised by any of these. The Korean models will probably improve but that will do nothing for the cars already sold. European cars are living off reputations made decades ago. VW fans point to the Beetle as a very reliable car but in reality, it was the simplest car ever built, fewer parts equals fewer breakdowns. Range Rover, look at used car sales, if they were any good there wouldn't be so many people trying to sell them cheap

      You mentioned the Korean models. The problem with Hyundai and Kia, started when they started to assemble them in the U.S. I'm still driving my 1999 Hyundai Elantra station wagon. I bought it new, and have always done that non-American thing, called MAINTENANCE. My Elantra has 217,000 miles on it, and I just had it out today. Starts right up, runs smooth, doesn't use oil. It's been the best car I ever owned. But, it was built in Korea, not the U.S. The transmission did start to do weird things, when it had 186,000 miles on it. I had it replaced, and have done lots of long-distance trips since then.

      It makes a lot of difference where the car is built/assembled cars built in Korea, Japan or continental Europe are usually better build quality then their counterparts with the same badge built elsewhere. Furthermore not all the cars on the list are designed to be used the way they are used in the U S , you don't expect a city car to be great at highway use.

    I loved the VW bug I once owned. It was a great car because it was simple. The only problem I ever had with it was that because of the salt air in Hawaii where I lived at the time part of the rear floor rusted away and occasionally the battery would fall through the floor and drag down the highway by the cables. Also anyone sitting in what was left of the back seat would catch a lot of road debris when driving on un-paved surfaces. I was truly a dependable car

    Bot my 2015 Hyundai Sonata new with all the bells and whistles. Probably the best car I’ve ever owned. Spent a total of $1,700 on 2 issues in 10 years: 1.) starter went out, $700 2.) small head gasket leak $1,000 a lot more involved than u would think but everything else including the bells and whistles function perfectly. Even the seats show little signs of wear. I love the car. I drive it hard but I keep it well maintained. When this one starts gives up the ghost I’m going to a Hyundai dealership first and hope the engine issues described in the video are resolved.

    I got a Mitsubishi Outlander 23 because I've read they were reliable. I have a huge buyer's remorse. A few months in, the info system started to black out, the charging ports randomly stop working, and the volume buttons work with the radio but not the info system (Android Auto, Spotify, etc). The worst part is that I can't get it fixed under warranty because the dealership said they need Mitsubishi authorization first, and Mitsubishi doesn't get back for months, then says it's useless to replace it because all their systems have this problem.
    The reverse camera developed a few sec delay and now it blacks out in the middle of reversing and the camera option does the same.
    You get a new car hoping to save on repairs but it becomes a problem without a solution.
    It's also very heavy and weak. I had a 2007 Odyssey before - an old, vibrating car that I spent thousands fixing - and it still ran better than the 2023 Outlander in terms of horsepower. If my old Odyssey's ride felt as heavy I'd think it needed an oil change.
    It already has a grinding sound when turning a wheel - started before one year, under 10K - and one of the trunk buttons doesn't work. It rough shifts into the park - the car jerks back and forth so much when pressing the park button that it makes people car sick.
    Very restricted interior space. The third row does not fit adults at all, even a slim short teenager has no room for legs.
    I was so tired of eternal repairs of the old cars and wanted a break for a couple of years... tough luck. If I could go back in time, I would never buy it.

      @GeeEm1313 I went to the dealership to look at a Mazda they had. Surprisingly, it had none of the options it was supposed to come with. I noticed that the lift gate was manual and checked for front and back cameras - it had none - they are supposed to come standard. I asked if it was a fleet car, and they denied it and couldn't answer what options exactly were included. So I was leaving, having lost what little trust I had in their professionalism.
      The finance manager said it's the last day of summer, August 31, and the end of the day, and they need to sell one more car to meet requirements, so they'll give me a very good deal on a new Outlander. Mitsubishi has almost no marketing in the US. They mostly sell in Europe and Asia, so I didn't know much at all. I googled it right there and read that it was reliable. Assembled in Japan.
      The next day, the price went down $3000. It's not like the manager didn't know that the price would dive in a few hours. He was urging me to buy immediately, or I'll lose the deal. He lied. That's what they do at dealerships. I don't buy cars often, my previous one was from 2007.
      They also force everyone to buy a mandatory cleaning package, I forget the price, a couple grand on top. I don't want and don’t need it, and I suspect the majority of people hate the forced add-on, but you get no choice.
      Mitsubishi promised to release a software upgrade in October that might just fix all the problems with charging ports/dash/info center. I made an appt on November 4 and was not surprised at all that nobody heard of that upgrade. Do they ever tell the truth in the auto industry? I don't think so.

    A good starting point to not buying the wrong car: stay away from ALL CVT transmissions, All three cylinder engines and ALL turbo charged engines. Also, all wheel drive is typically not necessary unless you live in a geographic region that demands it. FWD vehicles are more efficient and less maintenance intensive.

    This is the reason I'll never buy a new car. I own 2 cars a 2005 and 2010 models. The 2005 model recently gave up the ghost. Instead of getting rid of it and buying a new one I fixed it. It saved thousands. The PCV got blocked which blew the oil seals
    and stretched my timng chain.I spent $6000 reconditioning the engine. Did the work myself.
    What I've found out about my 2 cars is the 2005 model was better built. The 2005 model was the basic model, a 6 cylinder alloytec. Whereas the 2010 was a LS V8 top of the line model, which cost $20,000 more. The LS has had electrical problems, the door arm rest has come apart from the door card and the centre consol arm rest lid is broken at the hinge. In 5 years the workmanship has deteriated that much. I hate to see how bad it is after 19 years.

    It's all very well telling people about which cars they should and shouldn't buy, but sometimes people can't really afford to buy a Toyota or an Audi.
    I also see the number of people who have bought BMWs and they complain about the lack of space in them or the price of parts and servicing.
    The other fundamental issue that I would also like to point out is that every car that is ever built is going to require repairs at some point.
    Also, I often hear people saying who own a Peugeot, Renault or Citroen is about how much room they have inside the vehicle.
    So, I guess that the question is about what you see as real value.
    Do you want a car that is a status symbol, that says to your friends, family and neighbours "Hey!, look at me", or do you simply want a vehicle that is going to get you and your family from A to B without really worrying about what someone else might or might not think?

    I bought a 2011 ram longhorn , a beautiful truck. From the beginning the front brakes would over heat. They never got it right. I've replaced everything across the front several times ( not worn out) burnt up basically.
    It only has 125000 on it now and hasn't been driven a thousand miles a year for the past few years. The abs lights are on ( been replaced several times) the anti skid light stays on. A few times the left front brakes locked up. I pulled into a place and TH-cam to see if anyone else had the same problem. A guy had a video on his. He said he pulled the vacuum line off the brake booster and the brakes were released. I did the same and they backed right off, Air came out like an air compressor.

      The Mirage, while being a tin can on wheels, has a solid ownership following. These crazy cars can really go the distance, but be prepared for noisy interiors, slow acceleration and just being small. They are simple, easy to maintain and the CVT's installed usually last MUCH better than bigger vehicles with a CVT because they're so light weight. Just keep the fluid changed when you're supposed to. With the manual trans unit, they just go and go and go. These cars get crapped on, but they hold their own well.

    Reliability is the #1 most important factor in any car for me and many consumers. Everything is is gravy. Comfortable ride, "fun" car, gas milage, power, features, etc...none of that matters anywhere near as much as whether or not I can rely on this car to get me where I need to go and when I need to get there without any issues. Unfortunately, reliability in vehicles is degrading at a lightning pace AND vehicles are more expensive than they've ever been (thanks Covid). Even Toyotas, a brand famous for reliability, are now showing quality issues that they NEVER used to have before.

The car was off the road for a year until the part was finally found in a junk yard. During that time I was told by several dealers that it was the number one back ordered VW part in North America. While I was greatly inconvenienced and eventually had to buy a used car, VW never offered any idea when or if they would ever make the part. I understand they farmed that out to some Chinese company. Needless to say, even though I'm happy with how the car runs, its 50+ gallons per mile economy and how it drives, I am done with VW.

    One thing I am interested in, is how many of these faults are covered by the manufacturers warranty. Hyundai/Kia is famous for the l0 year 100,000 mile powertrain warranty, and one would think they would get these problems solved. I had a Honda CRV with the l.5 turbo, and it had problems with gas getting in the oil, and they never did stand by it, even though it was noted as a problem in northern states and Canada, so you can't trust any manufacturer all the time.

    I am the proud owner of a 1989 Ford E150 Van. It has been the best vehicle I have ever had, in my whole life. I bought this Van in Nov. 1995. I have 253,000 on this same engine 4.9 302 V8. And to this day: 11- 15 - 24. I have driven this Ford Van for- 29 Years. God has blessed me with this vehicle for so many years. So my Pastor and his Wife made me a sign to put on it. It says- THIS VAN IS POWERED BY GOD!
