    I remember when foreign cars started to out sale American cars. For years American brands relied on the fact Americans would continue to by American, while they did nothing to improve their quality or reliability. Then Toyota, and Honda announced they where going to start building cars in the US. That was pretty much the end to Americans will always buy from American owned manufactures.

      Every auto bailout, the Big 3 promise they've learned their lesson and will make efficient and RELIABLE cars. They come out with a few models, then go right back to putting all of their investment in 700 hp Jeeps and bringing back cars that went extinct to extract money from rich baby boomers who think cars were better in the past.
      Meanwhile Toyota makes millions of RAV4s, Highlanders, Camrys and Corollas that reliably go 300k+ miles with no issues.

    I believe the main problem with many modern cars is that in order to comply with the new ecological standards (like CAFE), they have to double the number of parts in the engine, valves, ensors, electronics, etc. it does not add much to the fuel efficiency (maybe 5-7% in the city), but it doubles the price of cars and repairs. Here is the law of diminishing returns, and the "comfortable" part of the cost-return curve is over.

    A brand new Corolla LE costs $26,000 (+taxes/fees) here in Ontario, Canada. An old 2012 Corolla with 200,000 miles costs around $11,000 (+taxes). That new Corolla will last as long as two old Corollas. The two old cars will need a lot more maintenance and parts replacements and engine repairs due to their old age. Will the $4,000 in savings in buying two used Corollas instead of one new one be able to pay for engine / transmission repairs/replacements in the old Corollas as opposed to buying a brand new car and not letting maintenance fall by the wayside the way most used car owners usually do?

    I used to own a 2017 Cadillac ATS. Although it was a decent American car, I had a few issues that were surprising given that it was luxury branded. The rear axle differential needed replacement at 20K miles. At 25K miles, the CUE system completely locked up and needed replacement. And while the acceleration was very good for a small car, it's 8 speed auto tranny become problematic at around 25K miles. I would get excessive shuttering and engine vibrations at numerous and sporadic times while driving on flat roads, like it should be shifting into lower gear up a hill, but was struggling to get itself prepared for that. I was also getting a constant annoying squeal/pulsing squeak sound that wasn't attributed to the brakes nor suspension nor alignment issue, but it was suggested that a transmission bearing was going bad. My advice would be to avoid the 8 speed transmissions of GM, especially in pre-pandemic models.

    I appreciate the standards this channel has. When a new Hyundai/Kia etc.. is introduced with all the bells and whistles and some auto experts award it car of the year this channel doesn't forget about the current recalls. Because the majority of failures occur after the warranty has expired.
    You can also tell this channel thinks about cost of ownership/operation over the longer term when recommending a car. Because reliability scores are useless when every part required OEM/expensive and overly complicated.

    I bought an Alfa Romeo Tonale Sprint model PHEV ( the base model, not the dolled up, expensive Veloce model, which is more readily more available, as for every Sprint model Alfa imported, they imported 9 Veloces ) almost a year ago. I was the first one to buy one in Canada, and basically bought it off the truck. I paid less then MSRP, and got it less then what a Ford Escape PHEV ( which at the time had a dealer mark up of $3,500, and add ons like $3,500 for Ford's Blue Cruise ) was going for, and where a RAV4 Prime ( basically the same price without add ons ) was ( and still is ) unavailable, and a 2 year old used Prime was selling for $14,000 more then my out the door price. Other then 9 recalls ( 2 for decals that did not have metric or French on them, that I did myself, 3 for checking high voltage connections were tight, no parts needed, 1 to replace a switch, and 3 for software updates, because where I live the vehicle would not update itself ) I have had zero problems with it, everything is operating above my expectations, and I am getting better electrical range and gas mileage then stated on the Vehicle MSRP sheet. It handles great, looks much nicer then its competition ( I compared the Sprint model against the Escape and Prime, where most reviewers, etc., compare the Veloce model that they are given by the dealers against the BMW X1 or Mercedes GLA, etc. which to me is not a fair comparison, especially a PHEV to a non PVEV ). It is not perfect, just like every vehicle in certain aspects, but I love it, love driving it, glad I bought it rather then any of the half dozen or so other PHEVS I test drove, and I would buy it again. And, it fits nicely in my garage.
    All new vehicles have there problems, and mine did too, but the dealership I bought mine from, bent over backwards to accommodate me with the recalls, offered me a loaner while my vehicle was being serviced, and Alfa has resolved every issue with my vehicle, some well documented. I cannot say I would have gotten the same treatment from any other manufacturer.
    Maybe I am lucky with my vehicle, but my whole experience, from buying it through to service, driving, etc., could not have been simpler, easier, stress free, and satisfying.

    • @carhelpcorner
      @carhelpcorner  24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I think there are many contributing factors. Emissions regulations are certainly a big one. Rather than stick with well proven technology and make small refinements over time as the Japanese do, American brands tend to introduce new complicated technology every few years, and introduce new issues with it. Globalization is another major contributing factor. American brands are under immense pressure to cut costs, downsize, and outsource whenever they can. Many other factors play a role too.

    Let’s forget about design issues for now. With that aside, American workers in manufacturing factories don’t have dedication, skills and craftsmanship like Japanese workers. Too many new employees who don’t know what they are doing. Veterans only care about their pension and retirement… it’s just cultural difference. Japanese are workaholic and more paranoid about their work quality. I’m not saying it’s a good thing necessarily but from quality of product stand point… yes I rather buy a car produced in Japan than here even though it’s the same model:brand

    I am a Ford guy, but I do not buy any of the EcoBoost/turbo cars. I had an older Ford Explorer. I drove it until I crashed it. It had 200,000 miles on it. It was front wheel drive with a V6 engine. I now have a second Ford Explorer it is a 2018 model. Same thing, it is a front wheel drive with a V6 engine. We just bought a Ford Escape. We got the Hybrid model. Again turbos, I specifically avoided turbos. We now have 12,000 miles on it. No problems. This is a very inexpensive hybrid option if you need something a little bigger.

Finally, all the buyers of the F150, by far the bestselling vehicle for decades, must NOT read Consumer Reports or just like to take financial punishment. Sorry, but I'm not with you on this, too many generalizations, IMHO and, as far as Consumer Reports, I wouldn't take their opinion even to buy a screwdriver, never mind a vehicle.

    First off Chrysler is not American, Chrysler is part of the Stellantis NV conglomerate as of 2023. Stellantis is the result of a merger between Fiat Chrysler and PSA Group, forming one of the largest automakers in the world. Honda, Toyota, Hyundai and others also build cars in North America, that doesn't make them "American". Ford builds cars in Mexico, that doesn't make them a Mexican automaker. I have had a RAM 1500 with the 5.7 Hemi for 10 years now. I have had absolutely no problems. In fact my friend bought a Tundra the same year. He paid the similarly equipped Tundra $15K more than my Ram. The Tundra turned out to be a complete rust bucket 🤣 Having said that my local dealer is selling a 2024 Toyota Tundra Hybrid for a ridiculous $90K plus tax and delivery!!!! Oh and it makes 20 mpg combined, just barely better than my 2014 RAM🤣🤣 In many cases Toyota dealers are marking up their vehicles way above MSRP. For me I would rather pay way less for an "American" pickup and buy an extended warranty if need be. My local dealer is selling a 2024 RAM 1500 Sport for $67K with the 5.7 Hemi, add a $3K extended warranty and Bob's your uncle (BTW - I'm sure I could negotiate even a better price with Chrysler)! In any case, the Hurricane engine is not "brand new" the engine made its debut in the Jeep Grand Wagoneer in 2022. Sad to see the 5.7 Hemi go, it is a great, proven engine. Unfortunately, emission requirements are forcing manufacturers to go with turbos. BTW - J.D. Power awarded the 2023 and 2024 Ram 1500 the Best Large Pick Up Truck in Canada, U.S. News & World Report Named Ram Truck 'Best Truck Brand' for Fourth Consecutive Year, Ram 1500 made Car and Driver 10-Best List For sixth Consecutive Year, Ram Truck celebrated their third consecutive MotorTrend Truck of the Year award after Ram 1500 earned the 2019 title, the Ram 1500 was Honored With Autotrader Best New Cars for 2019 Award and the Gold Hitch Award From The Fast Lane Truck, Texas Motor Press Association (TxMPA) Awarded Full-Size Truck of the Year to the Ram 1500, both Ram and Dodge Brands took Home 2024 Kelley Blue Book Consumer Choice Awards, Ram 1500 was named the top vehicle model that delivers on customer expectations by InMovement, Dodge and Ram Won Vincentric Value Awards, Ram 1500 earned the IIHS Top Safety Pick award for the fouth year running, need I go on?????

    in my opinion, the only new american car worth buying right now is 2024+ chevy trax. I bought a brand new Trax 1RS for $26,000 CAD ($19,000 USD). The car is bigger than a ux250h for half the price. The 5 year warranty will cover any unreliability issues, so who cares. For equivalent money, I'd be looking up high mileage beat up corollas so it's absolute no brainer to buy it. I also wouldn't be losing much on resale value since the car cost nothing to begin with. Tesla depreciates more in 1 year than the entire cost of this car.
