Maybe Land Rover doesn't sell enough cars to get enough surveys and reports? They sell much less than any of the SUVs on the list. Also, most of the cars on the list were all new or nearly all new models (2-3 years after redesign). After several years, most of the kinks have been worked out. A first year model during a pandemic with labor and supply shortages will likely have a lot more problems than the average NEW vehicle. Most new vehicles have something like 1 problem (or what surveyed customers consider a problem) per vehicle on average (or around 100 problems per 100 vehicles) in the first 3 years according to JD Power. Many cars will have 0 problems, but a few lemons might have 10 or 20 or more problems. So a brand new generation model with teething problems or more lemons that year might average 1.5 or 2 problems per vehicle in the first 3 years and be in the bottom of the rankings. But even these worst cars weren't getting a huge number of cars with problems or a huge number of problems, just noticeably more than the average new car which is getting more reliable than ever. These weren't 5+ year old vehicles with high miles or well out of warranty where EVERYTHING turns to dookie in the least reliable models, but this was based on "predicted reliability" which is hogwash. You can't judge the overall reliability of a model based on its first year on the market...
BMW and AUDI too. They both sell more than enough SUVs to make CR's testing list, and are both more likely to break than a couple of the SUV's on this list. CR lost most of their credibility long ago.
I had my GV 80 with zero issues for two years. It just got killed by a drunk driver, and its top safety rating paid off. I walked out without a scratch, with both cars being write offs. As for value, it’s got all the features of far more expensive cars except for the option for those people who want a 500+hp engine. I have no idea how it can be on this list.
I own a GV80 had it for more than 1 month and just breached 2000 miles. So far so good. I guess time will tell, but the part about it being too expensive is entirely subjective. The features that it has vs it’s competitors-Mercedes GLE, BMW X5, and Audi Q7, make it a good value.
Much agreed, my mom went from a Cayenne to a gv70 and she has 0 regrets. It’s got nearly 4k on it and has had no issues thus far. Interior is better than the Porsches in my opinion too, they did a killer job
Feel like this is a click bait title to get people who disagree to comment and move the video up the algorithm…it worked on me. Our 2020 XC90 had been rock solid and I haven’t heard enough negative elsewhere to justify a top 10 avoid rating.
@@ew403488 wow you got a good one. I took one home . For the weekend. I opened it up. Awesome ride. But when I too it back to the dealership. My check engine light came on.. BIG red flag for me. !!! I brought the Tesla. Instead
@@Cbo__25 You're absolutely correct. Had a 2004 Jag S Type R and it brought misery into my life. Sold it to a friend who I warned about buying it. Have a Lexus now and couldn't be happier.
LOL 30k mileage? Is that a bench mark for 1900's era cars? Today car bench mark is at 100k. And 60k is just a break in period of owning a car. In my opinion bench mark should be at 200k, where the Japan cars dominate.
My 20201 Genesis GV80 Prestige 2.5T 300 HP RWD has been perfect. It is as near perfect as any car I have owned. There is so much quality built in that the $60K price tag is very reasonable. With 13,300 miles within 20 months ownership, I expect to have this car for a long time.
10K and 1 year? Dude a Russian car can do that! LOL. My 2011 Jag XJ Supercharged was built 12/10 meaning it is about six months away from being 12 years old. 96K miles, purrs like a kitty. Only replaced the water pump. Your HyunKiaGen will never make it to 12 years. 🙂"Best car I've ever owned" my azz.
@@trevorsutherland5263 i have kia with 200k still going strong. I intentionally drive hard too just to get an excuse to break the car and replace it but it just won't die. Never had Genesis but I heard nothing but great things so far
One if the smartest decisions I made was leasing a Land Rover…it was in the shop 12 times in the 36 months i leased it. It gave me the option of driving lots of other cars at the LR dealership. Jags, Other LR’s. What did I lease next? Infiniti FX 35. It was great…
I owned a Yukon Denali years ago and it was my most reliable vehicle ever. I drove it to 180.000 miles before I had my first problem. And the problem was a very minor problem. The SUV never broke down on me. But that was the 2002 model Yukon Denali.
Same, I had a 2005 Escalade, 2010 Escalade and 2016 Yukon Denali. None of them ever left me stranded. Of course I have this weird habit of doing routine maintenance.
Half the time you spent on talking about the GV80 was about it's cost, which has nothing to do about the topic of this list. Proving you couldn't find much at all wrong with the car. But in regards to the cost, it's much cheaper than it's direct competition when similarly equipped.
lmao what are u talking about? GV80 can go for 65K for a 4 cylinder, so there is no value. I would rather get me a Lincoln Aviator, which is actually the true value king and competitor to the GV80 in the segment. Hell I'd even rather get the new MDX over the GV80 too since the Koreans is asking way too much and too confident. Aviator starts at 51K and GV80 48K, so on the first glance the GV80 is undercutting the Lincoln. However not only does the Aviator also has RWD, but comes standard with a base 3.0L Twin Turbo Ecoboost V6 with more horsepower and torque than either the 2.5 or the optional 3.5 of the GV80. Also in the GV80 you need to pay extra 11K on top of the 48K starting price to get the 3.5 (and still don't have as much power), so comparatively spec by spec, GV80 is more expensive. Of course the Black Label Aviator is most expensive than the GV80 but you get more ownership and membership features that you don't get in the GV80. Not to mention the Aviator is bigger vehicle and can tow and haul more as well. Hell even a front wheel drive QX60 mommy mobile can tow more than the GV80. Ecoboost is also proven to be reliable with the 3.5L reaching north of 300000 miles.
I have a Genesis G80 (not a SUV) for over a year and it's amazing. Also have owned a BMW 740 and a couple Acura. The cost and reliability can't be matched.
My wife has owned a 2018 Tiguan SE and the only issue she ever had, was one of fuel injectors went dead at around 30k due to a faulty connection, and it was covered under the warranty. She traded it in, at 48k, for a 2022 Tiguan SE. Neither car has ever given us any major issues. My wife absolutely loves her Tiguan. I had a 2018 Tiguan SEL and the only issue I had, was that the previous owner failed to get the recall done for the sunroof drains, and it leaked in a carwash. The dealership I bought it at, wasn't a VW dealer, and they weren't aware of the recall. Took to the local VW dealership for the leak and they replaced the sunroof drains, carpeting, sound baffling, and padding. Zero issues, besides the leak, and I loved having it. Traded it at 65k, for a 2018 Atlas SE w/tech, and had that for 2 yrs. Traded it earlier this year for a 2023 Atlas SE w/tech and can't see myself driving anything else.
Nobody should brag about having zero problems after one year of purchasing a new car, sounds like you expected something to go wrong and it exceeded your expectations so congrats on that
@@dabbadoo2226 I agree! But it’s a Genesis. The type of buyers of the GV80 have no clue what to expect from these products. They’ve been _told_ by the internet it’s a luxury vehicle of German build quality but Japanese reliability and all they know is it has the surface beauty they’re looking for and they’re saving a few pennies. But the *reality* is it’s neither German nor Japanese, it’s South Korean and Hyundai Motors who is notorious for class action lawsuits here in the U.S. makes them. So when they reach 6 months, 7 months, 8 months, etc. of little to no issues these customers are eager to deem them “reliable” as they don’t have many other real world examples to go off of and it’s just nerves and wishful thinking. Just ask MotorTrend how “reliable” their 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T was. As they approach 100,000 miles the Hyundai/KIA family ties will begin to shine though.
I definitely don't feel the GV80 is overpriced. It's surprising the issues with the Benz GLE and the fact that they still sell tons of them. Glad the new MDX didn't show up on this list.
Got my 2.5 Prestige last year and now I can't find any car that is even close to compare to pricewise. I need to get another this year it will probably be a Palisade.
GV80 is an amazing deal. In exchange for less power and less refined engines you get an incredibly luxurious vehicle. I put my mom in one and have been eying it ever since. Really weird that he’s calling a vehicle that pretty much every single car reviewer has called a great package for its price point overpriced.
We once had a rental car, and it was a Jeep renegade. There was lots of buzzing coming from the back axle at higher speeds(45-60 mph). The center consul also shook a lot and the overall build quality was absolutely horrible.
Interesting about the Genesis considering I’m about to purchase one and I’m so thorough that I read comments on so so many viewed videos and I’ve never really read about anyone having reliability issues. It’s mainly praise for the car. Sometimes these videos are misleading
I have a 2021 gv80, AWD 3.5t advanced. Drives like a dream. No problem so far. I mistakenly increased the pressure in the tires during winter. Caused the wheel to feel strange. I put the pressures back in factory numbers and it purred like a cat. I love my car, though I paid $4000 above mrsp. No regrets. Always brings a smile to my face when driving. Previous cars owned were Saab, Infinity, Mercedes and Acura. I stand with my GV80.
The videos are misleading or the anecdotal reviews you read in the comments are misleading? At the end of the day people are going to believe what they _want_ to believe and do what makes them happy regardless of what they find. 🤷🏾♂️
I have a 2109 xc90 r design and it was 2 years before I even opened the hood and I only did that because I realized I had no idea where the latch was. Its been the absolute best car ever
If you do have a issue with you're GV80. Then Hyundai/Genesis will come drop off a loaner and pick yours up for repairs. Then when its complete they will bring your car back. It isn't a problem for me when ill be in the same vehicle regardless and they are taking care of ANY issues
I have owned 6 Toyota SUVs in the last 30 years & I have never had any issues with them. They are extremely reliable & well made. I won’t buy any other brand, period. I do not care of any survey. I rely on my own experience.
I have 500,000 miles on my Lexus LX450/Land Cruiser and I love it more every day. Get an 80 series Land Cruiser and spend the money to restore it. You'll never regret it. They are built to last.
My dad has had the 2020 and now has the 2022 Mercedes GLE AMG Spec interior/exterior package and loved / loves it. No issues and and it’s a great, smooth and quiet riding SUV for an everyday vehicle. Extremely comfortable and luxurious to ride in and very easy and effortless to drive.
My wife has had a 2022 Lincoln Aviator for a year now & has had no issues. 85% of our vehicles we've owned have been Lincoln's but since they stopped making sedans, I switched to a Genesis G80 Prestige & absolutely love it! IMO, Lincoln has gone downhill since they switched to an all SUV lineup. Yes, the wife's Aviator has had no issues (YET) but it's built extremely cheap using a lot of plastic parts. My G80's interior is far more luxurious, more comfortable, 1000x quieter in the cabin & has a lot more safety features including smart cruise control for almost the same price point (our 2 vehicles). A Lincoln Aviator Black Label is about $85k whereas a Genesis GV80 Prestige is around $76k which both have all the same fully loaded features so not really understanding them saying the GV80 is expensive. This video seems to have all the luxury SUV's so which SUV's should be paying attention to that are "reliable?" LoL
@Richard Forbes LoL! Your comment made me chuckle. Hate to break it to ya, but all of American automobile companies (excluding Tesla claims of being 100% American made) have been installing numerous foreign parts in their vehicles for decades, so technically, you have never owned a 100% American made automobile unless you have owned or own a Tesla. I assumed every American adult would have known this information nowadays, but I shouldn't assume things as everyone learns at their own pace. Something else you should be informed about - China is a major stakeholder with Ford & GM; they own 50% of Ford and 49% of GM. You're talking to someone who customized his cars to the extreme inside & out for the 1st 10 years of having his license. I had a Grand Am GT with a full custom air ride suspension, and although that car felt like I was riding on a cloud (just as you stated), my G80, believe it or not, rides 10x smoother than the Grand Am did. That should already be a given seeing that technology advances with time, therefore it would only make sense that a 2021 luxury vehicle would have a smoother ride than a fully customized 2000 Grand Am GT air ride suspension. That's 21 years of innovation in the works. Lastly, there are a few things to say here.. 1) I'm still trying to understand why you threw your two cents in stating that imports are junk and they are worse than ours?.. You JUST said "I'm not really a Ford guy but I would buy anything before I bought an import." That tells me you have never owned a foreign luxury vehicle so we're supposed to take advice from someone who claims to have knowledge about something they obviously know nothing about simply put - you have never experienced it 1st hand 2) since my original comment a couple months ago, the Aviator had to go in the shop bc one of the cheap plastic pieces on the interior broke and had to be replaced. Betcha can't guess where that part was made and shipped from?🤣 3) you stated all I'm doing is sending my money overseas.. actually, what's really happening is the bank that approved my auto loan is taking my money until the loan is paid off. The dealerships are the ones doing direct business with auto manufacturers in other countries so technically, they are the ones "sending their money overseas." Sorry about this. I just thought it was appropriate to explain the facts of what's actually going on. If you want to continue with your current way of thinking, please, by all means, go for it. Whatever helps you sleep at night.
I never considered Consumer Reports in my car research for my car purchase. Consumer Reports only highly recommend Toyota, Lexus, Honda, and Accura. The rest are just not good enough for them. I have found Consumer Reports too biased for those cars. The best for car research is IIHS, Edmunds and Carfax.
I owned a Yukon Denali years ago and it was my most reliable vehicle ever. I drove it to 180.000 miles before I had my first problem. The fact that a Range/Land Rover isn’t on this list takes away it’s credibility.
German cars are expensive to maintain and I think over engineered. I've owned Volvo 850 cars since '94 and my most recent daily driver finally blew a few exhaust valves at 405,xxx miles although it still runs fine but a bit rough at idle. It was a work horse. They aren't cheap to fix. I finally bought a Toyota Camry and love it. Hyundai and Kia seem to be making great strides in their quality department. Lexus has always been a solid car. Mercedes and Land Rover love being in the garage for work and $$$$$ to fix. To each his/her own on vehicles. Buy what makes you happy.
Bmw,audi and benz care more about performance not quality anymore. The parts are beyond cheap and over prices and most don't even know they're built in north America and Mexico 😂😂😂 them shits ain't even real German cars anymore
@@andyb7719 classic camry, accord, highlander, sienna, fusion, are for intelligent people. They knows what they are doing, not what people thought about them. Volvo/Chinese cars went down in reliability in the past decades. Mazda quality and class go up, something that Hyundai/Kia also try although some defects is specific in USA factory related to engine assembly.
@@andyb7719 To each his own. I bought a new '22 Camry black night shade edition. It was the first model that didn't look like a family car but can hold a family. Gone are the days when I want to waste money on a vehicle that only gets 15 mpg. My Volvo cars were expensive to fix when they broke. Toyota has a great reputation for longevity. I like the car I bought. Nobody said you have to buy one.
@@rondhole you are insulting real car enthusiasts because they don't llike a camry and highlander. M5 AND AMGs are loved by real car enthusiasts not grandparents.
I can confirm one of problems with the 2020 Ford Explorer: Brand new, and we experienced leaks from the Transmission, so often. Parts had to be ordered, and car would remain days at the dealer for repairs. We had to take it 4 times, until we had enough. Not even a year and so many issues. --- So, turned out to be a Lemon. Ford had to buy it back. It was our 3rd Explorer,...so we were kind of surprised how sucky this new redesigned model turned out to be.
Oh yeah. I had one just like yours. It only had 15 thousand miles on it. I only had the car for 2 weeks. Then my transmission took a dump on me.) ford had to buy it back. ! Because they knew it was a lemon. !! Never again. Worst car ever made. !! One week later I got a letter from the ford corporate office. Telling me about a another car. NO thanks !!
Brought a brand new Escape. Worst car I have ever owned. Has been to the shop three times in less than a year. Now dealing with a lemon law attorney. Bad brakes, transmission and fuel pump.
Same here. My 2017 Ford explorer started having issues within months. Transmission of course. I love the ride and look but I will never get a Ford SUV. Ford pick ups are better but the explorer sucks.
Had a Mercedes SUV years back, fantastic car but It broke down on first holiday trip in Switzerland great service with the dealer taking part off showroom display car, that was the only issue in 100’000 miles, then got the first of new shape Volvo XC90, launch car and lots of problems on the electric controls, after several attempts to fix with software updates Volvo gave us a new car, I’m now on my 3rd, fantastic car with no issues anymore
This list is mostly accurate besides the Genesis GV80. The GV80 is a very safe SUV and if you wanted to talk about reliability, take a look at other comments. Some people have had them for over one year and still are not having issues with them. You also said that people have issues with the transmission. This car's transmission is solid because it's the same one they were using in the original Hyundai Genesis. I know someone who owns one of those, and the transmission is solid. Also, this vehicle is not overpriced. The base tier of this car has 300 horsepower and stunning luxury features some of which aren't even standard, let alone available, on most of its competition. Not a whole lot can compete with that. The top tier competes with luxury SUVs that cost upwards of $85,000. This car actually is a decent deal. Also, when a manufacturer puts a 100,000 mile warranty on a car, you're going to be just fine while owning it. Hyundai has a garbage past, but they've changed a whole lot.
I don't buy the GMC aspect. Wife had a Diesel colorado that went up to 120K miles before she traded it in a new Sierra (also a diesel). Sis in law has a Chevy Tahoe and so far seems good. Literally the whole family is a GMC family and it works fine
I can say I’ve purchased 2 (Buick Enclave and Pontiac Torrent). Both had so many issues. AC failure at 14,000 miles, body was easily dented and so many electrical issues. Visit the GM forums to see how many have premature failures. I didn’t expect much from a Pontiac, but was extremely disappointed with Buick. I would never purchase another GM, my money would be better spent calling an Uber. My experience with owning GM vehicles
The only thing I learned in the video is that Land Rover still spends a lot of money to lie with statistics. No way the Range Rover didn’t make the list. -signed former Range Rover Sport owner.
@@chrisshields5448 I just purchased a 2023 KIA Sportage. Any known issues with this model? Of course the dealership made sound as I purchased a POS to upsale an extended warranty.
The newer a vehicle, the less reliable it will be. This is why there is an odd year where a company does not plan for reliability but manages to eke out a top spot. Consumer Reports also has faulty metrics for gauging a cars reliability. It's based on consumer surveys and early reliability issues. Early problems are not indicative of long-term care. The vast majority of issues reported tend to be user adoption rather than something breaking. For instance, how to use a new infotainment system. The consumers of these vehicles have varying metrics and standards they expect in a vehicle. Someone buying a Mercedes is expecting something a bit more than a person buying a Toyota. It's basically asking the opinions of a car enthusiast verse a person who treats a vehicle as an appliance. Reliable vehicles depend on their simplicity, power train and material choices, and consistency of construction. These can all be analyzed to draw conclusions on reliability beyond 5 years. There are rarely actual reliability issues under 5 years.
@@chrisstromberg6527 I meant it as in an old platform still in manufacture like the Dodge Challenger has been in production since 2005. A new Dodge Challenger would be far more reliable than a new Grand Wagoneer.
German Vehicles lovely design great interiors but sad electronics failure . Japan electronics stand out as premium and reliability stakes. Happy customer award by far !!! 12:46
This type of list is very useful to warn owners agaist potential mistakes to avoid when thinking about a vehicle purchase. However, I don't think CR is being totally clear with us. I have seen CR reports give low reviews on vehicles which had compelling evidence from other sources indicating the opposite. Also, they put the Kia Sorento on this list at #2 commenting on the dual clutch transmission being bumpy in stop and go traffic. This characteristic is normal with DCT transmission and you can adjust your driving to avoid this. They also failed to tell us if this comment also applied to the Hyundai Sante Fe with the DCT transmission as this is the sister car to the Sorento. Hyundai owns Kia. I would advise buyers to give a broader check of their reviews and not totally rely on this CR report.
CR has become increasingly biased in recent years. I cancelled my subscription once I noticed this trend. I am by no means a GM fan, but to say their full size SUVs are the least reliable is just plain irresponsible. When a vehicle can go 200K miles with relatively minor repairs, it is far from unreliable. The Lincoln Aviator had 1 recall but is higher on this list than the GLE with almost 40? Tells you all you need to know about this list....
@@Chris-de2qc Most reports of vehicles that will last 200K miles or more include the GM full size SUVs. I consider myself a car guy, so I am almost always reading owner reviews and looking at this type of "Top XXX" list. I've personally had a Yukon and Tahoe that both went over 200K without any major repairs. Regular maintenance and a couple fuel pumps, and that's about it. I've had poor quality vehicles as well (one is one this list), but I stand behind my statement that CR is no longer an unbiased resource. They solicit reviews from subscribers, of which they may get a few hundred or maybe a thousand for a particular model, while the manufacturer sells thousands or even hundreds of thousands of these vehicles. Also, there is no way a list of unreliable vehicles is accurate without a Range Rover.
I agree with you. I too cancelled CR subscription. I have seen them indicate low ratings on particular vehicles when there is other vast compelling evidence to the conntrary.

@@Mutable_PageOfCups The Xc90 has had more recalls than I can list--2007 transmissions were horrible for a start, and since the Chinese took over electrics, drive line, brakes, leaks, and a whole list......no thanks
Hmm I dunno about this. We have a '21 Aviator and other than a rear view camera recall we haven't had any problems with our Aviator. Also they said they had the most comfortable seats of any SUV. No they don't, at least if you have the 30way massaging seats. The seat bottoms get really hard after a couple hours behind the wheel. If I got another one I would pass on the over-rated massaging seats in favor of a little more cushion on the butt...:)
Take these lists with a grain of salt. Volvo makes an amazingly well built car. Gv80 another amazing car and it's not over priced. They offer more and better warranty than the German cars that cost 15-20k more. Lists like this are made to get views.
The main problem with the new Volvos is the downsizing of the engines. I got 2 old XC 60 and had over 500 000 kilometers with each and no problems. When I leased a new XC 60 I kept the last old one and I was an good choice. The 2 litre engine with 313 hp is not very durable and resulted in lots of problems. So I handed it back and use now my old but reliable 2.4 litre D5 again until I got my new all electric. he engines
The Ford Explorer was the perfect vehicle, reliable, comfy, great layout. I sold a 2013 that had 297000 miles, and still perfect; I have a 2017 Explorer now,(258000 miles), and still believe is the perfect vehicle; however after 2018, Ford dicked around with the perfect vehicle and turned it into a Dodge.
I had a ‘16 & the AC immediately went out right after purchase & ford basically refused to fix it until I made a stink, then the back window shattered by itself a year later. I still liked the car overall though, it drove really nice. The gas fumes leaking into the cabin was also a periodic issue (although not often).
@@woodpit420 hi, the fumes in the cabin is actually a recall item, the dealer will fix it for free, they fixed it for me, and made all the difference in the world.
I have a 16 bought used with 30K.....Now has 80K and most reliable SUV I've ever owned....4x4 limited trim.....only some small minor recalls.....wife drives it daily with my kids.....will look into the Ford Lightning for my next vehicle....
Had a 2018 Tiguan. Body defects and water leaking into the passenger side when raining. So glad it was just a lease. But I have to say, VW seems to be responsible. We got a few thousand back. They also offered $2500 extra for another VW and we didn’t go for it.
I had a 18 also bought it brand new actually the same color as the one in the video i never had an issue with mine, only had it 2yrs then i upgraded to the 2019 Atlas SE and I never had an issue with it either i loved them both....but i did just traded for the Volvo XC90 it was my dream Truck a month after having it the check engine light came on but the dealership took care of the issue it was under warranty, it was some type of sensor needing replacement no other problems with it since
I’ve had 2 Tiguans from 2010 with well over 80,000 and neither had major issues when combined with good maintenance and extended maintenance such as timing chain replacement. Great cars and great reliability.
Test drove a vw tiguan and it sounded and drove like a jeep car . Interior was very plastic . End up buying a Lincoln Corsair nicely equipped , Panoramic roof , air cooled leather seating upgraded wheels , etc for around the same price as the VW . So far 25000 trouble free miles . The car has the most quiet cabin I've ever road in . The styling inside and out is beautiful and the 4 cylinder turbo is pretty quick and fun to drive . Paid around 43000 back in 2020 which is about what they wanted for a similarly equipped Tiguen
I bought a 2002 tahoe new. It went to 260k miles. I drove it to the snow all the time. It feel if I dropped a $1000 it would went another 50k miles no problem. 90% of time I used synthetic oil and always got oil changed w/ most rec services on time. Best Car I ever owned.
Ive heard a lot of good things about the Genesis GV80 from forums and diff message boards. Reliability issues must be very isolated. That said all manufacturers have issues including Lexus/Toyota and Honda/ Acura.
Always bought on CR recommendations, but the loved the G70. It has a so-so review for the 4 cylinder,but they didn't review the v6. , which was priced $10k less than a Audi S3, and blew it away. Found it very odd they don't review the 6, as it is a big seller.
There is a gv80 in my garage it's been there for almost a year and I couldn't be happier. BMW, Audi type of amenities for much less. I also own a jx35, (infiniti qx60) same shit I heard about that one. 150k miles, NO transmission issues and the thing is my daily driver for dogs and carrying cargo. I will say this... my dogs HATE the gv80. Even in eco mode it still has so much acceleration that they roll around like soup cans in the back. So, my dogs would agree with this vid but not for the stated reasons.
@The Real Cat of 2020 yes, the GV80 doea have a 10 year 100k mile warranty and may get fixed under that warranty. 1st=what will the owner of that vehicle drive when it does break down, especially if it does break down more often than others. The warranty does not come with a loaner vehicle. Lincoln does have loaner vehicles. 2nd= A lot of their dealership techs don't want to do the warranty work so they will come up qith a reason not to honor thw warranty. A friend of mine bought his daughter a Hyundai and ever time she would go to get engine issues repaired, they would find a reason not to honor it.
2021 Lincoln aviator black label GT owner here, can’t wait to offload this car. Ride quality is a dream, and its very VERY versatile, however, with the amount of time I’ve had it being serviced and in the shop I’m done with Lincoln after this lol.
Many years ago, CR did a comparison review of 5 luxury sedans. CR spoke glowingly of the large trunk in the Mercedes and yet according their data, the Jaguar's trunk was even larger. CR sang the praises of Audi's all-aluminum body with no mention of Jaguar's all-aluminum body. There were 2 other such omissions which I pointed out in a letter to CR which they did not acknowledge in either their publication or in a reply letter to me. J.D. Power lists the GV80 as having a reliability score of 81 out of 100 putting it in the "Great" category or above average...nowhere near CR's 1 out of 5. CR needs to confine their ratings to kitchen and home appliances!
You're crazy. They been doing this for 40 years. They are on point 99.9% of the time. JD. POWER is garbage. They have a pay to play system. CR is the best 👌 and it's non profit. They don't have a dog in the fight. They just call balls and strikes. Is it so hard to believe that a Kia/Hyundai product has reliability problems? Cmon man, just a couple years ago they were making cars that spontaneously combusted on the road! They just had a recall of EVERY CAR made with dual clutch...EVERY SINGLE ONE! That's right now. Cmon, they regularly make garbage and sell garbage. It's not hard to believe.
@@gregelguapo2661 You must work for CR right Greggy? 😂😂😂 I have a 2013 Hyundai Veloster with the 6-speed dual clutch auto tranny and have yet to receive any "recall" for a transmission problem. Turns out it's only the new 8-speed DCT in certain 2021-22 models or about 53K vehicles not "every single Hyundai vehicle made with dual clutch" as you claim.... why don't you post a link for the "spontaneous combustion" problem you babble about.
I own a tow biz, #1 frequent riders are BMW's. Range Rovers, even spaking new ones need piggy back rides. My neighbor bought a 2022 Range Rover and he had catastrophic trans failure. 😆 When he told about it, I was like "yeah, thats what Range Rovers do!".
The first Volvo we got was a 2016 XC90, never had an issue what so ever and just felt like a tank, you felt safe in it. We returned it when the lease was over but I still miss that car.
You are wrong about the XC90. Most issues with the car were electrical/infotainment related which have been addressed with newer models. The Engine was revised too and it definitely does not have transmission problems. If it does, then the Lexus RX350 would to since they both have the same transmission. This is coming from an owner... and I did a review on my channel if you guys want to see.
Didn't have an SUV but my Altima transmission died on me in the Chic FIL A drive thru. Lol. Had to be pushed out by two ladies. They gave me my food for free. It was a bad/big issue. A lawsuit came out a few years back. Nissan paid 70% of the cost to replace it which was $4k+. Smh. I think/hope they're better now.
@@amyersadams mine died on an exit ramp! Thank God I wasn't on the highway. Had to replace the transmission at 60k miles. It's a 2013 and I haven't had any problems since then, but I'm still wary about buying another Nissan, or an Infiniti.
My girlfriend picked up a new Kia Sorento SX Prestige. The transmission is so clunky and bad. She likes the car, but I've owned Acura MDXs and they are a night and day difference when it comes to shifting. In the Kia there is a noticeable lag between second and 3rd gear shifting that is infuriating.
This video may be lacking in a few car brands but you get the general idea. Its safe to stick to Japanese car brands as they tend to have higher reliability.
With the GM/Chevy Yukon/Tahoe being based on the large fullsize SUV's category, what other manufacturers have vehicles in this category? Ford Expedition and?....... Being in a category with 2-4 models from difference manufacturers makes the odd's of being on the list much higher, Also I would say you see 8-10 tahoes/Yukons on the road to one Expedtion, as mentioned, they get used in high mileage application's like Limo's also I see the Police using them in certain places also. My mom has been driving Tahoes for years, I don't remember the model year of her current one, but it has 150,XXX miles on it right now, and its hasn't been to mechanic for any major work, not even middle of road type repairs, this is truck also driven in the upper midwest where it see's harsh winter conditions, and it is also used to pull a enclosed car trailer for hundreds of miles. That said, GM did recently switch to a all new independent rear suspension on these SUV's, so it is not vetted model as of yet, as rule of thumb you usually want to avoid owning any brands first year model updates because they come with unforseen issues.
I have the XT4. Agreed the transmission is not that great. But the rest is good. I have an extended warranty. I’m getting a pilot next. Going back to Honda.
I bought a 2019 VW JETTA R LINE. I had 4 engine checks within a year and they replaced 4 parts. The rear camera is problematic because sometimes it works sometimes not. When you use the remote start and have set up the temp. To hi then when you start it the a/c is on. I brought it to the service dept and was told it is normal. The engine has a grinding sound and was told it is normal.
Keep in mind that relaiblity is 50% the manufacturers responsibility, and 50% the owners responsibility. Many people don't properly care for their car, then complain about how "unrelaible" it is. So I always take these lists with a grain of salt.
WRONG....these are new cars not old.....there is no maintenance to do on a new car during the first 36,000 miles except oil changes.....and then that will have no effect on transmission, climate system, electric, bodywork, or brake failures. it is about CRAP QUALITY.
@@ELP1125 well you think you are the big expert Goober....so tell us all that maintenance that needs to be done before 36,000 miles.......and how the car will break if you dont.......you can't do that of course because you are full of crap--but give it your best try.....and dont take 2 weeks to respond this time...
Great information. Question: if the Yukon/Suburban/Tahoe are unreliable and problematic, what does that mean for the Escalade? Aren’t they built on the same platforms?
Service writers at my dealership have told me all GM engines equipped with cylinder deactivation have lifter problems resulting in ruined camshafts thus a ruined engine.. programs are available to turn it off on engines thus equipped.. . With it turned off engines last a respectful long time..
I had an explorer for 8 years with no issues until 1 days the engine started knocking. So I can’t say they’re unreliable because it served me well for 8 years.
I've had my explorer since 2003..have 150 000 miles on it..last explorer to be built on a truck frame..have no problems with it other than replacing a/c compressor..but living in az u use the ac year round..ac gets quite a workout..still have it and it carries everything in the back..a great vehicle..
I’m on my fourth Land Rover/ Range Rover. Never had issues with any of them. Tried an Audi and kept it for 18 months of which two months were in the shop. Could wait to get back to RR.
Not sure if you are getting new or not. I’ve owned 1 new 96 Discovery and 4 Range Rovers. The 2004 Range Rover was the most reliable, but still man the maintenance was over the top and stuff started breaking around 90 K miles.
@@theGiver3 Had my first one for four years but had the chance to upgrade. Second one for eight years. Third one is new (8 months). My wife’s is twelve years old. Paid for extended warranty on the first two and my wife’s which turned out to be a complete waste of money. Average 25k a year. I know they have a poor reputation and perhaps I’ve been lucky but it is a mistake to think that they all break down, all the time. They don’t. Believe it.
I have a 21 GV 80 … ZERO problems, still to this day I can’t pull into a gas station or grocery store or big box store w/o the stares and thumbs ups and people walking over to me at the car wash to tell me how beautiful this suv is. The best part is that it drives and performs better than it looks. I will not watch this video ,after 6 seconds I went to the comments …I would rather spit FACTS.
if you didnt know the gv80 was designed by the same guy who designed the bentleys... also uses some of the same interior materials... as far as reliability who knows yet but as far as the value compared to whats in it and its competitors it is actually under priced.
Thank god no Dodge Durango. My 2018 Durango V6 has been pretty good. Only issue is sometimes there a glitch with the radio when it rains for a long time.
I have a 2012 V6 Durango with 140k on it, only think I've had to do is replace the radiator because it sprung a small leak and I didnt want to have to refill with coolant all the time. Still cruising though!
I have Durango Citadel 2015,No issues as of today, still running smooth, change Radiator under warranty as it has small leak, some lights out, needes replacement. That's it
I am following you from Saudi Arabia. I agree with you on all except Kia Sorento. It is on of the most reliable cars. We have no DCT transmissions here; only eight speed automatics..
Boy oh Boy.. hyundai kia sure is screwing the pooch again. aren't they? Did anybody take notice of the one item these all have in common? If you guessed in car electronics you are correct. I have always said more wires will create more problems. Also i find the electronics in my 22 santa fe annoying as hell. The way the screen just sits there in the dead middle of the dash board. It is like somebody said, oh wait lets slap a infotainment system here real quick so we don't look stupid. I recently priced a replacement screen and interface. $3000.00 not including install. When it goes i guess crutchfield will have to do because i am not replacing that factory stuff.
A lemon is one issue, another is how the dealer acts ......and the reason I would only buy Toyota\Mazda\Honda is because I never ever want to see the G D dealer, ever. They are pure evil.
I drive a 2005 GMC Yukon Denali XL with 202,000 miles! Awesome truck no complaints. Ride like a 2022! Put new tires, tune up & oil changes. Going to do new paint job.
Sad that Ford and GM vehicles are so unreliable. One would believe that Land Rover vehicles would dominate this list, as they have a well deserved reputation for being highly unreliable. At the opposite end of the reliability spectrum sits Toyota and Lexus. Their SUV's aren't the highest tech or prettiest, but put oil and gas in them and keep on running.
Well, I just bought a 2022 Mazda CX-5 and figured I was going to see it on this list, but nope. After a lot of research and waiting to hear bad things, I still am pleasantly surprised and stoked about my new ride.
Nah, Mazda is build in Japan. Why I love Mazda because of Japanese attention to quality. My only two brand is Mazda and Subaru. Owned both with over 200k.
I bought the 2022 CX30 skyactive g I used to drive bmw x1 and believe me it's the best thing I ever done I'm shocked how good the Mazda is it's so underated in the market yet it's one of the most reliable brands .
The XC90 transmission issues cannot be true, it shares the same transmission as Lexus and Toyota, the engine I can understand but not the powertrain or transmission.
My 2916 XC90 T8 has been reliable so far except for a software issue on its infotainment system in my 1st year of ownership but since then resolved after software update. I hope I’m lucky on this one. It’s on its 6th year now.
@@rickj1983 Volvo's 8 speed transmission from Japanese Company Called Aisin, Aisin is related to Toyota Company. The transmission issues happened to Volvo was owned by ford and Volvo used Ford's Dual Clutch Transmission.

Absolutely hearing nothing bad about the gv 80 from reviews to message boards the % must be very low if it's having any problems but this is my first time ever hearing that so I wouldn't put the gv80 on this list
I did extensive research on the GV80 as well as other Genesis Models. This review is Crap when it comes to the GV80. The Warranty is the best in the industry 3 years complimentary concierge scheduled maintenance 5 years 60,000 miles limited warranty and 10 years 100,000 miles on the powertrain.
Thank you!!!! 13 months old in my garage, with absolutely no problem. Drives luxurious, feels luxurious, looks luxurious, zero problems so far. Very very happy with my purchase and driving experience so far, and same with other owners that I know!
@@pepperdem7052 Same here bought my GV80 new in 2021 And what a great car for the money! It has been flawless just like my new 2022 Telluride I bought (got both at MSRP). So far 15,000 miles on the GV80 3.5TT and 13,000 on the SX Prestige Telluride. No way is the GV80 over priced for what you get and the Telluride is a great value if you can get at MSRP or below....but good luck on that!
I own 2019 Ford Explorer Sport with the 3.5L twin turbo EcoBoost engine, which has performed flawlessly for us since day 1. AFTER this model year is when the current issues appeared.
Just confirms y I bought a Mazda CX-9.. Built in Japan & has the tried and true 2.5L engine with a 6 spd auto.. Cars with more than 6 gears have nothing but problems.
Really disappointed to hear about the Tahoe! I have had three and my present 2008 Tahoe has 180k miles and has been reliable. I was planning on a new one in the near future but this makes me want to hold on to this one.
don’t let this video discourage you, most of these cars are very reliable. However, this VIDEO is VERY unreliable… if you take good care of your car it will last.
My 2022 Tahoe with 7000 miles has a jacked up transmission! Sitting at the dealer service department for over two weeks and they are still waiting on parts!
Why are you guys always bashing KIA, had them for 20 years, and they were always bulletproof reliable, including my 2010 Borrego, that i still own with more than 275k on it.

The fact that a Range/Land Rover isn’t on this list takes away it’s credibility.
Absolutely. Not to mention Consumer Reports and JD Power lists have long been known to have zero credibility.
If you couldn’t tell by the cheap ads in the video itself lol
Maybe Land Rover doesn't sell enough cars to get enough surveys and reports? They sell much less than any of the SUVs on the list. Also, most of the cars on the list were all new or nearly all new models (2-3 years after redesign). After several years, most of the kinks have been worked out. A first year model during a pandemic with labor and supply shortages will likely have a lot more problems than the average NEW vehicle. Most new vehicles have something like 1 problem (or what surveyed customers consider a problem) per vehicle on average (or around 100 problems per 100 vehicles) in the first 3 years according to JD Power. Many cars will have 0 problems, but a few lemons might have 10 or 20 or more problems. So a brand new generation model with teething problems or more lemons that year might average 1.5 or 2 problems per vehicle in the first 3 years and be in the bottom of the rankings. But even these worst cars weren't getting a huge number of cars with problems or a huge number of problems, just noticeably more than the average new car which is getting more reliable than ever. These weren't 5+ year old vehicles with high miles or well out of warranty where EVERYTHING turns to dookie in the least reliable models, but this was based on "predicted reliability" which is hogwash. You can't judge the overall reliability of a model based on its first year on the market...
BMW and AUDI too. They both sell more than enough SUVs to make CR's testing list, and are both more likely to break than a couple of the SUV's on this list. CR lost most of their credibility long ago.
@@mabm85 consumer reports only puts the vehicles from manufacturers that give them the least money
The fact that you included GV80 to this list, and not any model of the Range Rover vehicles, damages your credibility more than you can imagine.
I had my GV 80 with zero issues for two years. It just got killed by a drunk driver, and its top safety rating paid off. I walked out without a scratch, with both cars being write offs. As for value, it’s got all the features of far more expensive cars except for the option for those people who want a 500+hp engine. I have no idea how it can be on this list.
I have a GV80 Prestige. Super happy, this list is stupid, the GV80 is a luxury model not a CRV. I also have no idea how it can be on this list.
Because you are Korean
I own a GV80 had it for more than 1 month and just breached 2000 miles. So far so good. I guess time will tell, but the part about it being too expensive is entirely subjective. The features that it has vs it’s competitors-Mercedes GLE, BMW X5, and Audi Q7, make it a good value.
Much agreed, my mom went from a Cayenne to a gv70 and she has 0 regrets. It’s got nearly 4k on it and has had no issues thus far. Interior is better than the Porsches in my opinion too, they did a killer job

The Genesis GV 80 is the most reliable car I've owned, not a single issue in two
Years and 30,000 miles.
Indeed!
I'm at 180k 7 years on grand cherokee limited no issues less than 100k miles it shouldn't tear up
LOL 30k mileage? Is that a bench mark for 1900's era cars?
Today car bench mark is at 100k. And 60k is just a break in period of owning a car. In my opinion bench mark should be at 200k, where the Japan cars dominate.
i definitely don’t believe this about the GV80
And big anerican trucks and suvs.. tahoes expeditions etc
My 20201 Genesis GV80 Prestige 2.5T 300 HP RWD has been perfect. It is as near perfect as any car I have owned. There is so much quality built in that the $60K price tag is very reasonable. With 13,300 miles within 20 months ownership, I expect to have this car for a long time.
10,000 miles into my 2021 GV80. best car I've ever owned. zero issues. Turns a head every day and someone will ask you if it's a Bentley daily.
If a car break down at 10k mileage, then they will go bankrupt in a year. Try 200k, then we'll see.

I owned a Yukon Denali years ago and it was my most reliable vehicle ever. I drove it to 180.000 miles before I had my first problem. And the problem was a very minor problem. The SUV never broke down on me. But that was the 2002 model Yukon Denali.
They were made much better in 2002
Thats why, built much better than this new crap
That was a different era
Same, I had a 2005 Escalade, 2010 Escalade and 2016 Yukon Denali. None of them ever left me stranded. Of course I have this weird habit of doing routine maintenance.
2001 Yukon with 201,600 miles and still going. Only replaced the oil line!!!
Half the time you spent on talking about the GV80 was about it's cost, which has nothing to do about the topic of this list. Proving you couldn't find much at all wrong with the car. But in regards to the cost, it's much cheaper than it's direct competition when similarly equipped.
You need to go back and check the times. He literally spent more time on the problems than the cost
Especially the repair and maintenance cost!
lmao what are u talking about?
GV80 can go for 65K for a 4 cylinder, so there is no value. I would rather get me a Lincoln Aviator, which is actually the true value king and competitor to the GV80 in the segment. Hell I'd even rather get the new MDX over the GV80 too since the Koreans is asking way too much and too confident.
Aviator starts at 51K and GV80 48K, so on the first glance the GV80 is undercutting the Lincoln. However not only does the Aviator also has RWD, but comes standard with a base 3.0L Twin Turbo Ecoboost V6 with more horsepower and torque than either the 2.5 or the optional 3.5 of the GV80.
Also in the GV80 you need to pay extra 11K on top of the 48K starting price to get the 3.5 (and still don't have as much power), so comparatively spec by spec, GV80 is more expensive.
Of course the Black Label Aviator is most expensive than the GV80 but you get more ownership and membership features that you don't get in the GV80.
Not to mention the Aviator is bigger vehicle and can tow and haul more as well. Hell even a front wheel drive QX60 mommy mobile can tow more than the GV80. Ecoboost is also proven to be reliable with the 3.5L reaching north of 300000 miles.
Genesensitivity!
I have a Genesis G80 (not a SUV) for over a year and it's amazing. Also have owned a BMW 740 and a couple Acura. The cost and reliability can't be matched.
My wife has owned a 2018 Tiguan SE and the only issue she ever had, was one of fuel injectors went dead at around 30k due to a faulty connection, and it was covered under the warranty. She traded it in, at 48k, for a 2022 Tiguan SE. Neither car has ever given us any major issues. My wife absolutely loves her Tiguan. I had a 2018 Tiguan SEL and the only issue I had, was that the previous owner failed to get the recall done for the sunroof drains, and it leaked in a carwash. The dealership I bought it at, wasn't a VW dealer, and they weren't aware of the recall. Took to the local VW dealership for the leak and they replaced the sunroof drains, carpeting, sound baffling, and padding. Zero issues, besides the leak, and I loved having it. Traded it at 65k, for a 2018 Atlas SE w/tech, and had that for 2 yrs. Traded it earlier this year for a 2023 Atlas SE w/tech and can't see myself driving anything else.

@@dabbadoo2226 I agree! But it’s a Genesis. The type of buyers of the GV80 have no clue what to expect from these products. They’ve been _told_ by the internet it’s a luxury vehicle of German build quality but Japanese reliability and all they know is it has the surface beauty they’re looking for and they’re saving a few pennies. But the *reality* is it’s neither German nor Japanese, it’s South Korean and Hyundai Motors who is notorious for class action lawsuits here in the U.S. makes them. So when they reach 6 months, 7 months, 8 months, etc. of little to no issues these customers are eager to deem them “reliable” as they don’t have many other real world examples to go off of and it’s just nerves and wishful thinking.
Just ask MotorTrend how “reliable” their 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T was. As they approach 100,000 miles the Hyundai/KIA family ties will begin to shine though.
Land Rover definitely needs to be on this in my opinion.
I definitely don't feel the GV80 is overpriced. It's surprising the issues with the Benz GLE and the fact that they still sell tons of them. Glad the new MDX didn't show up on this list.
GV80 is worth it. Love mine.
Got my 2.5 Prestige last year and now I can't find any car that is even close to compare to pricewise. I need to get another this year it will probably be a Palisade.
RDX is missing too. That’s a good thing.
@BearPaw Which brand?
GV80 is an amazing deal. In exchange for less power and less refined engines you get an incredibly luxurious vehicle. I put my mom in one and have been eying it ever since. Really weird that he’s calling a vehicle that pretty much every single car reviewer has called a great package for its price point overpriced.
We once had a rental car, and it was a Jeep renegade. There was lots of buzzing coming from the back axle at higher speeds(45-60 mph). The center consul also shook a lot and the overall build quality was absolutely horrible.
Interesting about the Genesis considering I’m about to purchase one and I’m so thorough that I read comments on so so many viewed videos and I’ve never really read about anyone having reliability issues. It’s mainly praise for the car. Sometimes these videos are misleading
This video was way off on the GV80!!!!
I have a 2021 gv80, AWD 3.5t advanced. Drives like a dream. No problem so far. I mistakenly increased the pressure in the tires during winter. Caused the wheel to feel strange. I put the pressures back in factory numbers and it purred like a cat. I love my car, though I paid $4000 above mrsp. No regrets. Always brings a smile to my face when driving. Previous cars owned were Saab, Infinity, Mercedes and Acura. I stand with my GV80.

My wife has had a 2022 Lincoln Aviator for a year now & has had no issues. 85% of our vehicles we've owned have been Lincoln's but since they stopped making sedans, I switched to a Genesis G80 Prestige & absolutely love it! IMO, Lincoln has gone downhill since they switched to an all SUV lineup. Yes, the wife's Aviator has had no issues (YET) but it's built extremely cheap using a lot of plastic parts. My G80's interior is far more luxurious, more comfortable, 1000x quieter in the cabin & has a lot more safety features including smart cruise control for almost the same price point (our 2 vehicles). A Lincoln Aviator Black Label is about $85k whereas a Genesis GV80 Prestige is around $76k which both have all the same fully loaded features so not really understanding them saying the GV80 is expensive. This video seems to have all the luxury SUV's so which SUV's should be paying attention to that are "reliable?" LoL
@Richard Forbes LoL! Your comment made me chuckle. Hate to break it to ya, but all of American automobile companies (excluding Tesla claims of being 100% American made) have been installing numerous foreign parts in their vehicles for decades, so technically, you have never owned a 100% American made automobile unless you have owned or own a Tesla. I assumed every American adult would have known this information nowadays, but I shouldn't assume things as everyone learns at their own pace. Something else you should be informed about - China is a major stakeholder with Ford & GM; they own 50% of Ford and 49% of GM.
You're talking to someone who customized his cars to the extreme inside & out for the 1st 10 years of having his license. I had a Grand Am GT with a full custom air ride suspension, and although that car felt like I was riding on a cloud (just as you stated), my G80, believe it or not, rides 10x smoother than the Grand Am did. That should already be a given seeing that technology advances with time, therefore it would only make sense that a 2021 luxury vehicle would have a smoother ride than a fully customized 2000 Grand Am GT air ride suspension. That's 21 years of innovation in the works.
Lastly, there are a few things to say here.. 1) I'm still trying to understand why you threw your two cents in stating that imports are junk and they are worse than ours?.. You JUST said "I'm not really a Ford guy but I would buy anything before I bought an import." That tells me you have never owned a foreign luxury vehicle so we're supposed to take advice from someone who claims to have knowledge about something they obviously know nothing about simply put - you have never experienced it 1st hand 2) since my original comment a couple months ago, the Aviator had to go in the shop bc one of the cheap plastic pieces on the interior broke and had to be replaced. Betcha can't guess where that part was made and shipped from?🤣 3) you stated all I'm doing is sending my money overseas.. actually, what's really happening is the bank that approved my auto loan is taking my money until the loan is paid off. The dealerships are the ones doing direct business with auto manufacturers in other countries so technically, they are the ones "sending their money overseas." Sorry about this. I just thought it was appropriate to explain the facts of what's actually going on. If you want to continue with your current way of thinking, please, by all means, go for it. Whatever helps you sleep at night.
I never considered Consumer Reports in my car research for my car purchase. Consumer Reports only highly recommend Toyota, Lexus, Honda, and Accura. The rest are just not good enough for them. I have found Consumer Reports too biased for those cars. The best for car research is IIHS, Edmunds and Carfax.
I owned a Yukon Denali years ago and it was my most reliable vehicle ever. I drove it to 180.000 miles before I had my first problem. The fact that a Range/Land Rover isn’t on this list takes away it’s credibility.
German cars are expensive to maintain and I think over engineered. I've owned Volvo 850 cars since '94 and my most recent daily driver finally blew a few exhaust valves at 405,xxx miles although it still runs fine but a bit rough at idle. It was a work horse. They aren't cheap to fix. I finally bought a Toyota Camry and love it. Hyundai and Kia seem to be making great strides in their quality department. Lexus has always been a solid car. Mercedes and Land Rover love being in the garage for work and $$$$$ to fix. To each his/her own on vehicles. Buy what makes you happy.
Bmw,audi and benz care more about performance not quality anymore. The parts are beyond cheap and over prices and most don't even know they're built in north America and Mexico 😂😂😂 them shits ain't even real German cars anymore
Camry? Yuck
@@andyb7719 classic camry, accord, highlander, sienna, fusion, are for intelligent people. They knows what they are doing, not what people thought about them. Volvo/Chinese cars went down in reliability in the past decades. Mazda quality and class go up, something that Hyundai/Kia also try although some defects is specific in USA factory related to engine assembly.
@@andyb7719 To each his own. I bought a new '22 Camry black night shade edition. It was the first model that didn't look like a family car but can hold a family. Gone are the days when I want to waste money on a vehicle that only gets 15 mpg. My Volvo cars were expensive to fix when they broke. Toyota has a great reputation for longevity. I like the car I bought. Nobody said you have to buy one.
@@rondhole you are insulting real car enthusiasts because they don't llike a camry and highlander. M5 AND AMGs are loved by real car enthusiasts not grandparents.
I can confirm one of problems with the 2020 Ford Explorer: Brand new, and we experienced leaks from the Transmission, so often. Parts had to be ordered, and car would remain days at the dealer for repairs. We had to take it 4 times, until we had enough. Not even a year and so many issues. --- So, turned out to be a Lemon. Ford had to buy it back. It was our 3rd Explorer,...so we were kind of surprised how sucky this new redesigned model turned out to be.
Oh yeah. I had one just like yours. It only had 15 thousand miles on it. I only had the car for 2 weeks. Then my transmission took a dump on me.) ford had to buy it back. ! Because they knew it was a lemon. !! Never again. Worst car ever made. !! One week later I got a letter from the ford corporate office. Telling me about a another car. NO thanks !!
Had a 2005 ford explorer. Needed a new transmission after 30k miles...
Ilove my 2018 3,5 non turbo Explorer Limited
Brought a brand new Escape. Worst car I have ever owned. Has been to the shop three times in less than a year. Now dealing with a lemon law attorney. Bad brakes, transmission and fuel pump.
Same here. My 2017 Ford explorer started having issues within months. Transmission of course. I love the ride and look but I will never get a Ford SUV. Ford pick ups are better but the explorer sucks.
Had a Mercedes SUV years back, fantastic car but It broke down on first holiday trip in Switzerland great service with the dealer taking part off showroom display car, that was the only issue in 100’000 miles, then got the first of new shape Volvo XC90, launch car and lots of problems on the electric controls, after several attempts to fix with software updates Volvo gave us a new car, I’m now on my 3rd, fantastic car with no issues anymore
Which is?
Geneva or bern?
This list is mostly accurate besides the Genesis GV80. The GV80 is a very safe SUV and if you wanted to talk about reliability, take a look at other comments. Some people have had them for over one year and still are not having issues with them. You also said that people have issues with the transmission. This car's transmission is solid because it's the same one they were using in the original Hyundai Genesis. I know someone who owns one of those, and the transmission is solid. Also, this vehicle is not overpriced. The base tier of this car has 300 horsepower and stunning luxury features some of which aren't even standard, let alone available, on most of its competition. Not a whole lot can compete with that. The top tier competes with luxury SUVs that cost upwards of $85,000. This car actually is a decent deal. Also, when a manufacturer puts a 100,000 mile warranty on a car, you're going to be just fine while owning it. Hyundai has a garbage past, but they've changed a whole lot.
Thank you
My dream vehicle, thanks for the update!
I concur
I have a 2015 Genesis and it just got to 210 k miles and still going! 👍🏼
The guy who made this whole video is full of crap, he just looked online and made a video about it
I don't buy the GMC aspect. Wife had a Diesel colorado that went up to 120K miles before she traded it in a new Sierra (also a diesel). Sis in law has a Chevy Tahoe and so far seems good. Literally the whole family is a GMC family and it works fine
I can say I’ve purchased 2 (Buick Enclave and Pontiac Torrent). Both had so many issues. AC failure at 14,000 miles, body was easily dented and so many electrical issues. Visit the GM forums to see how many have premature failures. I didn’t expect much from a Pontiac, but was extremely disappointed with Buick. I would never purchase another GM, my money would be better spent calling an Uber. My experience with owning GM vehicles
The only thing I learned in the video is that Land Rover still spends a lot of money to lie with statistics. No way the Range Rover didn’t make the list. -signed former Range Rover Sport owner.

The newer a vehicle, the less reliable it will be. This is why there is an odd year where a company does not plan for reliability but manages to eke out a top spot. Consumer Reports also has faulty metrics for gauging a cars reliability. It's based on consumer surveys and early reliability issues. Early problems are not indicative of long-term care. The vast majority of issues reported tend to be user adoption rather than something breaking. For instance, how to use a new infotainment system. The consumers of these vehicles have varying metrics and standards they expect in a vehicle. Someone buying a Mercedes is expecting something a bit more than a person buying a Toyota. It's basically asking the opinions of a car enthusiast verse a person who treats a vehicle as an appliance.
Reliable vehicles depend on their simplicity, power train and material choices, and consistency of construction. These can all be analyzed to draw conclusions on reliability beyond 5 years. There are rarely actual reliability issues under 5 years.
You mean the company? You’re basically saying older cars are more reliable which really isn’t the case
Our 2018 Suburban was bought brand new, we have had no reliability issues! The used car we bought for our daughter, well that's another story!
@@chrisstromberg6527
I meant it as in an old platform still in manufacture like the Dodge Challenger has been in production since 2005. A new Dodge Challenger would be far more reliable than a new Grand Wagoneer.
German Vehicles lovely design great interiors but sad electronics failure . Japan electronics stand out as premium and reliability stakes. Happy customer award by far !!! 12:46
This type of list is very useful to warn owners agaist potential mistakes to avoid when thinking about a vehicle purchase. However, I don't think CR is being totally clear with us. I have seen CR reports give low reviews on vehicles which had compelling evidence from other sources indicating the opposite. Also, they put the Kia Sorento on this list at #2 commenting on the dual clutch transmission being bumpy in stop and go traffic. This characteristic is normal with DCT transmission and you can adjust your driving to avoid this. They also failed to tell us if this comment also applied to the Hyundai Sante Fe with the DCT transmission as this is the sister car to the Sorento. Hyundai owns Kia. I would advise buyers to give a broader check of their reviews and not totally rely on this CR report.
CR has become increasingly biased in recent years. I cancelled my subscription once I noticed this trend. I am by no means a GM fan, but to say their full size SUVs are the least reliable is just plain irresponsible. When a vehicle can go 200K miles with relatively minor repairs, it is far from unreliable. The Lincoln Aviator had 1 recall but is higher on this list than the GLE with almost 40? Tells you all you need to know about this list....
Exactly what I was thinking looking at this list. Seems just a blind list.
Your are 100 percent right
Your vehicle may have been the % that was ok. You're not looking at overall stats.
@@Chris-de2qc Most reports of vehicles that will last 200K miles or more include the GM full size SUVs. I consider myself a car guy, so I am almost always reading owner reviews and looking at this type of "Top XXX" list. I've personally had a Yukon and Tahoe that both went over 200K without any major repairs. Regular maintenance and a couple fuel pumps, and that's about it. I've had poor quality vehicles as well (one is one this list), but I stand behind my statement that CR is no longer an unbiased resource. They solicit reviews from subscribers, of which they may get a few hundred or maybe a thousand for a particular model, while the manufacturer sells thousands or even hundreds of thousands of these vehicles. Also, there is no way a list of unreliable vehicles is accurate without a Range Rover.
I agree with you. I too cancelled CR subscription. I have seen them indicate low ratings on particular vehicles when there is other vast compelling evidence to the conntrary.
I had a 2018 Tiguan and never had any problems. The only reason I don’t have any more is because I fell in love with the 2021 Arteon
I haven’t heard any positives about VW recently! Especially the van.
Same here, still have a 2018 Tiguan I bought new and not one problem
This is such a VW owner response lol. “ I had my car for 2-3 years and it was fine”. Some people keep their cars and want them to work into the future
I have had a Passat for 6 years - perfect car! NO issues at all - totally reliable
So you got rid of one shitty car for another, congrats 👏

Hmm I dunno about this. We have a '21 Aviator and other than a rear view camera recall we haven't had any problems with our Aviator. Also they said they had the most comfortable seats of any SUV. No they don't, at least if you have the 30way massaging seats. The seat bottoms get really hard after a couple hours behind the wheel. If I got another one I would pass on the over-rated massaging seats in favor of a little more cushion on the butt...:)
Take these lists with a grain of salt. Volvo makes an amazingly well built car. Gv80 another amazing car and it's not over priced. They offer more and better warranty than the German cars that cost 15-20k more. Lists like this are made to get views.
Fan boy detected.
The main problem with the new Volvos is the downsizing of the engines. I got 2 old XC 60 and had over 500 000 kilometers with each and no problems. When I leased a new XC 60 I kept the last old one and I was an good choice. The 2 litre engine with 313 hp is not very durable and resulted in lots of problems. So I handed it back and use now my old but reliable 2.4 litre D5 again until I got my new all electric.

I have a 2021 Yukon and have had none of the issues they say in this video. Been a great truck.
The Ford Explorer was the perfect vehicle, reliable, comfy, great layout.
I sold a 2013 that had 297000 miles, and still perfect; I have a 2017 Explorer now,(258000 miles), and still believe is the perfect vehicle; however after 2018, Ford dicked around with the perfect vehicle and turned it into a Dodge.
I had a ‘16 & the AC immediately went out right after purchase & ford basically refused to fix it until I made a stink, then the back window shattered by itself a year later. I still liked the car overall though, it drove really nice. The gas fumes leaking into the cabin was also a periodic issue (although not often).
@@woodpit420 hi, the fumes in the cabin is actually a recall item, the dealer will fix it for free, they fixed it for me, and made all the difference in the world.
I have a 16 bought used with 30K.....Now has 80K and most reliable SUV I've ever owned....4x4 limited trim.....only some small minor recalls.....wife drives it daily with my kids.....will look into the Ford Lightning for my next vehicle....
Had a 2018 Tiguan. Body defects and water leaking into the passenger side when raining. So glad it was just a lease.
But I have to say, VW seems to be responsible. We got a few thousand back. They also offered $2500 extra for another VW and we didn’t go for it.
Have a 2013 right now and it’s junk. Will never buy another VW after this one
I had a 18 also bought it brand new actually the same color as the one in the video i never had an issue with mine, only had it 2yrs then i upgraded to the 2019 Atlas SE and I never had an issue with it either i loved them both....but i did just traded for the Volvo XC90 it was my dream Truck a month after having it the check engine light came on but the dealership took care of the issue it was under warranty, it was some type of sensor needing replacement no other problems with it since
@@MP-hi5hs u got to do maintenance on time it's that simple.
I’ve had 2 Tiguans from 2010 with well over 80,000 and neither had major issues when combined with good maintenance and extended maintenance such as timing chain replacement. Great cars and great reliability.
80k miles hasn't been alot since the 80s.
I had a Tiguan give my Z06 a run for its money up in the mountains. I dunno how reliable it is but I'll never forget that handling!!
Test drove a vw tiguan and it sounded and drove like a jeep car . Interior was very plastic . End up buying a Lincoln Corsair nicely equipped , Panoramic roof , air cooled leather seating upgraded wheels , etc for around the same price as the VW . So far 25000 trouble free miles . The car has the most quiet cabin I've ever road in . The styling inside and out is beautiful and the 4 cylinder turbo is pretty quick and fun to drive . Paid around 43000 back in 2020 which is about what they wanted for a similarly equipped Tiguen
Replacing timing chains at 80k is not good. Timing chains should go to 150k at the minimum dependent on driving habits.
You got lucky
I have a 2022 GV80, no issues what at all after 6 months and 15,000 kms.
I would hope so...
I bought a 2002 tahoe new. It went to 260k miles. I drove it to the snow all the time. It feel if I dropped a $1000 it would went another 50k miles no problem. 90% of time I used synthetic oil and always got oil changed w/ most rec services on time. Best Car I ever owned.
Correction. 2022, right? 🤔
Ive heard a lot of good things about the Genesis GV80 from forums and diff message boards. Reliability issues must be very isolated. That said all manufacturers have issues including Lexus/Toyota and Honda/ Acura.
Always bought on CR recommendations, but the loved the G70. It has a so-so review for the 4 cylinder,but they didn't review the v6. , which was priced $10k less than a Audi S3, and blew it away. Found it very odd they don't review the 6, as it is a big seller.
@@johns9969 i believe that engine was reviewed in other models. Good reviews in those. Driving dynamics are great also. Take a test drive.
There is a gv80 in my garage it's been there for almost a year and I couldn't be happier. BMW, Audi type of amenities for much less.
I also own a jx35, (infiniti qx60) same shit I heard about that one. 150k miles, NO transmission issues and the thing is my daily driver for dogs and carrying cargo.
I will say this... my dogs HATE the gv80. Even in eco mode it still has so much acceleration that they roll around like soup cans in the back.
So, my dogs would agree with this vid but not for the stated reasons.
@The Real Cat of 2020 yes, the GV80 doea have a 10 year 100k mile warranty and may get fixed under that warranty. 1st=what will the owner of that vehicle drive when it does break down, especially if it does break down more often than others. The warranty does not come with a loaner vehicle. Lincoln does have loaner vehicles. 2nd= A lot of their dealership techs don't want to do the warranty work so they will come up qith a reason not to honor thw warranty. A friend of mine bought his daughter a Hyundai and ever time she would go to get engine issues repaired, they would find a reason not to honor it.
Yup... my mother's 20 RX350 FSPORT

Many years ago, CR did a comparison review of 5 luxury sedans. CR spoke glowingly of the large trunk in the Mercedes and yet according their data, the Jaguar's trunk was even larger. CR sang the praises of Audi's all-aluminum body with no mention of Jaguar's all-aluminum body. There were 2 other such omissions which I pointed out in a letter to CR which they did not acknowledge in either their publication or in a reply letter to me. J.D. Power lists the GV80 as having a reliability score of 81 out of 100 putting it in the "Great" category or above average...nowhere near CR's 1 out of 5. CR needs to confine their ratings to kitchen and home appliances!
I never put much stock in consumer reports when it comes to automobiles. I agree with you wholeheartedly
You're crazy. They been doing this for 40 years. They are on point 99.9% of the time. JD. POWER is garbage. They have a pay to play system. CR is the best 👌 and it's non profit. They don't have a dog in the fight. They just call balls and strikes. Is it so hard to believe that a Kia/Hyundai product has reliability problems? Cmon man, just a couple years ago they were making cars that spontaneously combusted on the road! They just had a recall of EVERY CAR made with dual clutch...EVERY SINGLE ONE! That's right now. Cmon, they regularly make garbage and sell garbage. It's not hard to believe.

You are wrong about the XC90. Most issues with the car were electrical/infotainment related which have been addressed with newer models. The Engine was revised too and it definitely does not have transmission problems. If it does, then the Lexus RX350 would to since they both have the same transmission.

My girlfriend picked up a new Kia Sorento SX Prestige. The transmission is so clunky and bad.

With the GM/Chevy Yukon/Tahoe being based on the large fullsize SUV's category, what other manufacturers have vehicles in this category? Ford Expedition and?....... Being in a category with 2-4 models from difference manufacturers makes the odd's of being on the list much higher, Also I would say you see 8-10 tahoes/Yukons on the road to one Expedtion, as mentioned, they get used in high mileage application's like Limo's also I see the Police using them in certain places also. My mom has been driving Tahoes for years, I don't remember the model year of her current one, but it has 150,XXX miles on it right now, and its hasn't been to mechanic for any major work, not even middle of road type repairs, this is truck also driven in the upper midwest where it see's harsh winter conditions, and it is also used to pull a enclosed car trailer for hundreds of miles. That said, GM did recently switch to a all new independent rear suspension on these SUV's, so it is not vetted model as of yet, as rule of thumb you usually want to avoid owning any brands first year model updates because they come with unforseen issues.
I have the XT4. Agreed the transmission is not that great. But the rest is good. I have an extended warranty. I’m getting a pilot next.
Going back to Honda.
My xc90 saved me from a car crash and without getting my insurance involved. I'm not sure if they need to be on this list. Also, what do you drive?
I bought a 2019 VW JETTA R LINE. I had 4 engine checks within a year and they replaced 4 parts. The rear camera is problematic because sometimes it works sometimes not. When you use the remote start and have set up the temp. To hi then when you start it the a/c is on. I brought it to the service dept and was told it is normal. The engine has a grinding sound and was told it is normal.
Keep in mind that relaiblity is 50% the manufacturers responsibility, and 50% the owners responsibility. Many people don't properly care for their car, then complain about how "unrelaible" it is. So I always take these lists with a grain of salt.

Not sure if you are getting new or not. I’ve owned 1 new 96 Discovery and 4 Range Rovers. The 2004 Range Rover was the most reliable, but still man the maintenance was over the top and stuff started breaking around 90 K miles.
Don't believe this lol. Must've gotten rid of each one after 3 yrs max, that's why you "never had issues with any of them".
@@theGiver3 Had my first one for four years but had the chance to upgrade. Second one for eight years. Third one is new (8 months). My wife’s is twelve years old. Paid for extended warranty on the first two and my wife’s which turned out to be a complete waste of money. Average 25k a year. I know they have a poor reputation and perhaps I’ve been lucky but it is a mistake to think that they all break down, all the time. They don’t. Believe it.
I have a 21 GV 80 … ZERO problems, still to this day I can’t pull into a gas station or grocery store or big box store w/o the stares and thumbs ups and people walking over to me at the car wash to tell me how beautiful this suv is. The best part is that it drives and performs better than it looks. I will not watch this video ,after 6 seconds I went to the comments …I would rather spit FACTS.
if you didnt know the gv80 was designed by the same guy who designed the bentleys... also uses some of the same interior materials... as far as reliability who knows yet but as far as the value compared to whats in it and its competitors it is actually under priced.
I had my Gv80 for over a year. No problems at all. If u have any problems, they have a concierge service that is pretty good. Dont believe the HYPE!
UPDATE...3RD YEAR NO PROBLEMS!!@
Thank god no Dodge Durango. My 2018 Durango V6 has been pretty good. Only issue is sometimes there a glitch with the radio when it rains for a long time.
I have a 2012 V6 Durango with 140k on it, only think I've had to do is replace the radiator because it sprung a small leak and I didnt want to have to refill with coolant all the time. Still cruising though!
I have a 2016 Durango. 45000 miles, Not one single problem.
I’ve got a 2011 Durango with 150k still cruising I might swap a 392 in it at some point 😏
I have Durango Citadel 2015,No issues as of today, still running smooth, change Radiator under warranty as it has small leak, some lights out, needes replacement. That's it
Durango is too simple to have many problems.
All motor vehicles break down. It’s a machine. Nothing lasts for ever. Buy what you want folks. People don’t last forever either. It’s ok. It’s life
Exactly!!
I am following you from Saudi Arabia. I agree with you on all except Kia Sorento. It is on of the most reliable cars. We have no DCT transmissions here; only eight speed automatics..
An 8 speed could also be DCT. Perhaps you meant CVT?
@@sultanaljedda3688 Nope. I meant traditional automatic with a torque converter.
@@sultanaljedda3688 No - its a conventional auto
What about land cruiser
@@Therealestrunnerluda Very reliable and very expensive
Boy oh Boy.. hyundai kia sure is screwing the pooch again. aren't they? Did anybody take notice of the one item these all have in common? If you guessed in car electronics you are correct. I have always said more wires will create more problems. Also i find the electronics in my 22 santa fe annoying as hell. The way the screen just sits there in the dead middle of the dash board. It is like somebody said, oh wait lets slap a infotainment system here real quick so we don't look stupid. I recently priced a replacement screen and interface. $3000.00 not including install. When it goes i guess crutchfield will have to do because i am not replacing that factory stuff.
A lemon is one issue, another is how the dealer acts ......and the reason I would only buy Toyota\Mazda\Honda is because I never ever want to see the G D dealer, ever. They are pure evil.
I drive a 2005 GMC Yukon Denali XL with 202,000 miles! Awesome truck no complaints. Ride like a 2022! Put new tires, tune up & oil changes. Going to do new paint job.
Sad that Ford and GM vehicles are so unreliable. One would believe that Land Rover vehicles would dominate this list, as they have a well deserved reputation for being highly unreliable. At the opposite end of the reliability spectrum sits Toyota and Lexus. Their SUV's aren't the highest tech or prettiest, but put oil and gas in them and keep on running.
Well, I just bought a 2022 Mazda CX-5 and figured I was going to see it on this list, but nope. After a lot of research and waiting to hear bad things, I still am pleasantly surprised and stoked about my new ride.
Nah, Mazda is build in Japan. Why I love Mazda because of Japanese attention to quality. My only two brand is Mazda and Subaru. Owned both with over 200k.
CX-5 is a good one! My mom has an older one that she drives to work an hour each way and has never had any issues for years.
I have a Mazda cx 5 2014 and i have 0 problems
I can't tell if you're joking or not. mazda has always been the most reliable brands of vehicles.
I bought the 2022 CX30 skyactive g I used to drive bmw x1 and believe me it's the best thing I ever done I'm shocked how good the Mazda is it's so underated in the market yet it's one of the most reliable brands .
The XC90 transmission issues cannot be true, it shares the same transmission as Lexus and Toyota, the engine I can understand but not the powertrain or transmission.
Um, no they're not. Volvo has a manufacturing plant in SC, however, the company has been Chinese owned for quite some time now.
@@rickj1983 Yeah, I honestly don’t believe the transmission issue.
My 2916 XC90 T8 has been reliable so far except for a software issue on its infotainment system in my 1st year of ownership but since then resolved after software update. I hope I’m lucky on this one. It’s on its 6th year now.
@@rfm357 I agree we have an XC90 as well we love it.
@@rickj1983 Volvo's 8 speed transmission from Japanese Company Called Aisin, Aisin is related to Toyota Company. The transmission issues happened to Volvo was owned by ford and
Volvo used Ford's Dual Clutch Transmission.
Will This save me from picking a Suv that not on 10 list warning. Thank you
Just bought a 2022 Mazda CX-5 3 weeks ago. Glad to not see it on the list.
SUV’s started out as elevated station wagons. Now they’re elevated cross over 4 seaters. Families with more than 2 children have to ride seated like sardines!
And EVERY “ SUV is so expensive to buy new you’d have to live in it!!!
Absolutely hearing nothing bad about the gv 80 from reviews to message boards the % must be very low if it's having any problems but this is my first time ever hearing that so I wouldn't put the gv80 on this list
I did extensive research on the GV80 as well as other Genesis Models. This review is Crap when it comes to the GV80. The Warranty is the best in the industry 3 years complimentary concierge scheduled maintenance 5 years 60,000 miles limited warranty and 10 years 100,000 miles on the powertrain.
Thank you!!!! 13 months old in my garage, with absolutely no problem. Drives luxurious, feels luxurious, looks luxurious, zero problems so far. Very very happy with my purchase and driving experience so far, and same with other owners that I know!
@@pepperdem7052 Same here bought my GV80 new in 2021 And what a great car for the money! It has been flawless just like my new 2022 Telluride I bought (got both at MSRP). So far 15,000 miles on the GV80 3.5TT and 13,000 on the SX Prestige Telluride. No way is the GV80 over priced for what you get and the Telluride is a great value if you can get at MSRP or below....but good luck on that!
I own 2019 Ford Explorer Sport with the 3.5L twin turbo EcoBoost engine, which has performed flawlessly for us since day 1. AFTER this model year is when the current issues appeared.
I've had 3 Explorers, the latest being a 2008 XLT model, but I guess I should hand on to it instead of getting a new Explorer.
I own Lincoln Aviator Reserve 2022 and only what I can say is it’s worth every penny!
Lol. I have GLE 450 and gv80 advance plus. They both are very good, no problem at all. The gv80 is not over priced compare to other same lvl suv.
Just confirms y I bought a Mazda CX-9.. Built in Japan & has the tried and true 2.5L engine with a 6 spd auto.. Cars with more than 6 gears have nothing but problems.
No. Open your eyes sunshine
I've never had any issues with my ZF 8HP on my Jaguar XF.
Really disappointed to hear about the Tahoe! I have had three and my present 2008 Tahoe has 180k miles and has been reliable. I was planning on a new one in the near future but this makes me want to hold on to this one.
don’t let this video discourage you, most of these cars are very reliable. However, this VIDEO is VERY unreliable… if you take good care of your car it will last.
Don't buy a new one. I bought one for my wife and had engine issues 2 months later.
My 2022 Tahoe with 7000 miles has a jacked up transmission! Sitting at the dealer service department for over two weeks and they are still waiting on parts!
My suburban is reaching 450,000 miles. Regular maintenance is all that’s needed on any vehicle.
I have the Kia Seltos and it has been a reliable car. Sure there were bugs at first but Kia has good at squashing them.
Zero problems with mine. CR is biased towards certain manufcturers. It is obvious they do not like Kia. Must not get enough donations from then.
Totally agree “predicted customer report” dosent make any sense, this list is bullshit Kia, genesis, Volvo like seriously???
I own a 2021 kia Seltos sx turbo and love it. No issues at all.
Why are you guys always bashing KIA, had them for 20 years, and they were always bulletproof reliable, including my 2010 Borrego, that i still own with more than 275k on it.
