- Buying a new car can be an exciting experience. Once that initial excitement wears off, however, buyer’s remorse can sometimes hit hard. A fresh iSeeCars study seeks to analyze that heartbreak through a report that reveals the new SUVs most often sold, returned, or otherwise bailed out of within the first year of ownership.
The study looked at over 46 million new car and SUV sales to come up with the data for this list. and we are going to focus on the top 9 SUVs owners got rid of within the first year on this video. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Surprised to see the Cayenne, not the rest 😂
Thank you for posting. Saved me from watching the video. I'd never purchase any of these brands.
Love you😂 Thanks!
Thank you
Back in 2014 I owned a certified 2011 Range Rover sport supercharged. I owned it for 18 months. Within the first 12 months it needed new set of 20 inch tires, brakes, a new water pump and a new supercharger. I started heading a clunk in the front end and was told the noise were bushings not covered under warranty. All this occurred in under 35k on the ODO. I liked the vehicle but it was the most problematic vehicle I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned a lot of high end cars. I didn’t even mention the electrical gremlins…
I knew someone who worked at a car auction. He said the Range Rovers were the worse. He said they had plastic door handles that would snap off!
"high end"😂
@@franciscovidabajasur1900 ya know… a few Bee Em Double yaas and such.
ELectrical gremlins, eh? Reminds me of "Lucas, the Prince of Darkness" who rode shotgun at night in 1960s MGs, Healeys, and Jags.
Not a surprising list.
I go for reliability, like my 2016 subaru forester xt, 250hp about 250 ft.lb, 270,000 miles and runs like the day I bought it. Only one set of brake pads, one serpentine belt, two sets of spark plugs and same turbo since new. I change oil myself every 4000 miles, it's so easy a blind man could do it.
Pretty interesting how not a single American brand mentioned in this.
Except for the Rogue, they're all luxury brands. Perhaps the people that can afford these brands can more easily change vehicles if they're unhappy with it. Because it sure is not that American vehicles are better, there are no American brands in the top 10 list that was produced by Consumer Reports for 2023.
Or Japanese 😊
@@wayneburch3775 Nissan isn't Japanese? 🤣
@@stitch438 Yes, but now owned by Renault (European)
@@gatorsronyou wish … 😂😂😂 Renault and Nissan have an equity stake in each other of 15% of the stock portfolios…. that is something completely different than Nissan being owned by Renault….
Purchased a 2019 Toyota Rav4, and so far, it's been the best vehicle I've ever owned, and I'm 70. love it.
Ive heard lots of good things about recent model Rav4s. They seem to be the best small suv for the money
I’m with you bought my first Toyota this year. 2024 4Runner the vehicle is well made. The gas mileage isn’t the best , our daily commute is short.
The most boring.car on the planet
@@SamSaengsavang I thought about buying a new RAV4 but I cant get past the to weird / strange body style !
@bextar6365 I agree the styling and handling are nothing to brag about. Otherwise it's a great car
As someone who just finished purchasing a used vehicle, I was shocked at the depreciation on luxury SUVs such as Mercedes, Audi, BMW and the like. Sat in a couple (Audi and Mercedes) and was unimpressed by both.
They say: “ If you want to go to the desert get a Land Rover. If you want to go and come back get a Toyota Land Cruiser.”
Regarding the European cars, a Master Tech. at a big dealership:
" Too much engineering,
too much money,
too many failures..."
Thanks for the good video 😊
American cars are DULL and just as unreliable. How about panel gap spacing LOL
BMW the worst - nothing than problems never a dull moment!
Than a Land Rover again nothing than problems !
As a German I finally bought a Honda SUV!
Its not engineering if it fails, its lack of engineering. Engineering should provide simple, brilliant solutions, not idiotic complexity.
As they say if you buy a Landrover get the one with the heated rear windscreen. This keeps your hands warm in winter whilst you are pushing it.
I have a used Nissan Rogue sport and I love it. I’m 73 and pick my granddaughter up twice a week at highschool it’s 50 miles one way in heavy sometimes traffic. I feel safe an it has great power. Traded a Sentra 2015 in for it.
It's misleading to say "older Range Rovers were more reliable". Because in comparison to today's hi tech electro creations the old ones were much the same, pound for pound reliability wise. I owned one for 12 years, I liked it, but, lucky I'm a mechanic and fortunately the early ones were simple enough, but it always took a lot of maintenance to keep it going and roadworthy. A lot like "Grandfather's Axe".
In 2004 after my first deployment I picked up a 2002 V8 explorer it's still my daily
You got a good year😊
2007 Pontiac, my daily since then ❤
Thanks for this
2015 Range Rover..blew a radiator expansion block between AZ and CA and had to tow it 250 miles and packed my family of five inside the tow truck. Then it had many issues with the air suspension. Kept it six months and lost a lot of money. Never again !
Same thing happened with my land rovers!
Wow unbelievable stay away from British cars they are junk!
My Land Rover - beautiful outside and inside a nightmare!
People who returned X3 probably bought X5 . The only problem is not enough loading space. X3 is a great and reliable car.
I love my 2018 X3M40i. Model hasn't changed much in 6 years. No issues at all. I would buy another if I wrecked it.
I learned years ago about the domestics and the hard way. Never look back. They still can't design a vehicle with personality. I've just not had good luck with them. The couple older suburbans were great on long trips. They have some engines downpat, but it's so many little things that added up.
Did you see many US SUVs on that list? Asking for a 🤡
I sense a toyota fanboy
I drive a Cadillac XT4 Sport luxury and I love it!!
@@prettyflower8577 wait till it gets up over 80,000 MI see how the reliability is after that it will be the tall tale
I owned a 2007 GMC Acadia (first year out). There were some issues, but all wound up as recalls so they were paid for by GM. I finally traded it in in 2018 with 213,000 miles on it. And yep bought a 2016 Acadia that had been a lease vehicle. I’m not driving as much. It’s now 2024 and it has a whooping 58,000 miles on it. Absolutely no issues.
Great video, thank you for the advice.
Hate to tell you, but The Rogue is still on sale, just remodeled. But they've had their share of problems with their CVTs
Nissan could recapture their glory days some of us are old enough to remember, but they need to end their alliance with Renault. Couldn’t give me a present day Nissan for free.
The Rogue Sport is a different model that the Rogue, its not a trim level. The Sport is based on the European Nissan Qashqai. Which means that every car on this list is European.,
👍Good Report👍👌👏🙏Thanks🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
To each his own but I'm 14 months into a 2023 Subaru Crosstrek ($30,000 including tax out the door). I would say the body styling is as good or better as any other small crossover. I got it loaded to my satisfaction. It has a six speed manual transmission (you can't get those anymore) and NO TURBO to fail down the road. It's early days but so far I couldn't be happier with the purchase plus it was cheap enough that I could pay cash.
NO turbo is a nice thing for sure! Getting a car loaded with what you want is very important. People try to save a few bucks and get stripped down base versions and then want a new car again after. If you are going to buy a new car, get the features you want and keep it for 10-15+ yrs.
@@micker9830 Well, my comment was misleading. I got a premium model but I avoided the fancy electronic door handles. that's a failure point IMO. 2024 has a fancy turn signal that lights up somewhere on the side view mirrors. I would have bought that if available. I jumped in to the 2023 because that's the last year for the manual transmission in anything but sports cars.
I have a 2021 Forster best car I have owned
@@garyclack3807 I would have gone with that model. Crosstrek is all I could afford.
Awesome
I feel bad for the Range Rover owners. Even if they could easily afford it that's still money down the drain they could be socking away for an earlier retirement.
I must agree that this list is not made with the average buyer in mind. Your list is mostly high end SUV’s. Not applicable to me at all. John from Cape Cod
You gave no explanation as to why the X3 appeared at #4 on your list. I recently took delivery of a 2024 X3 M40i and I love it. I’m still well under a year of ownership but I don’t anticipate me getting rid of it at the year mark. Can you provide some context? Thanks!
Yea X3 is the most confusing of all the vehicles in this list
I agree, I was shocked because I like the car.
My wife and once stopped in at a Porsche dealer back in the mid 2000’s to check out a used Cayenne. I was driving a 2000 Lexus RX300 at the time and looking to possibly upgrade. I was shocked at how poorly the Cayenne had held up with relatively modest mileage. The interior looked shoddy and dated, and the drive line was whining. When I mentioned to the Porsche salesman that I thought there was a problem in the driveline he became a real ass. I left thinking what a piece of crap the Cayenne was given its’ price. That was the last time ever stepped foot in a Porsche dealer. I currently drive a 2010 RX350 with 220,000 miles and it’s still pretty tight.
Lesson is never trade a reliable japanese care for a piece of euro junk.
Imagine the loss on a new Porsche, selling it after 1 year lol?
Exactly. That's the best deal is to purchase one that is 3 - 5 years old.
@@TwoHawksHunting and deal with all the problems, ......... out of warranty !
Porsche is the only brand that you can get up to 12 years extended warranty
@@helmuthj.zotter7272 Buyer should always purchase an extended warranty for a used car.
@@joanwebster602 at what price ?!
What you do after 5 years ? Pay a kings ransom.....
I had a Genesis GV80 when I lived in US and fantastic car, fun to drive, comfortable and with lots of space, fantastic service and warranty!
2018 and above X3 with the B48 engine is very reliable and a great car to drive.
I own a 2023 BMW X1 and I love it. Not sure why anyone who has done their research would get rid of a vehicle they just purchased.
Mental retardation is more ubiquitous than we have been told.
Volvo is a european brand that many seem to return to, although extending the warranty is essentilly a must and an added expense. Even the chinese built recent years have garner meaningful customer satisfaction, but seriously get the extended warranty!
If Volvo extend the warranty up to 15 yrs somebody gonna buy if
I've own 3 Audi's Q3, Q5 & Q8 the all had the same issue as the #1 vehicle on here that delay when you hit the gas and nothing for a couple seconds, thats scare especially on on ramps entering the highway, it was alway an issue for me, but besides that they were all good vehicles
2024 My Favorite SUV Picks Are the Land Rover Defender 110 V8, Range Rover Sport, BMW X5, Jaguar F-Pace, Toyota 4Runner, & Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. Glad They Didn't Make the 9 That Where Listed.
I had always bought used & never thought I could buy new. Found some stability in life increased my budget. After much research I chose Subaru Forester. They hold their value so new seemed best option. Had great dealership experience (!). Love how comfortable it is.
Luxury just by used after 2 years it should depreciate by 1/2. Got a Guilia by that method but it’s time for me to be responsible
X3 m40i is the best vehicle I ever had. And I’ve had at least 15 cars and trucks…….
I have a 2008 Porsche Cayenne GTS, Fully Loaded….Of course things are starting to need replacing, and Everything is Expensive….however ..Love it and learning how to repair things I can ….
I have a 2020 evoque and I love it. It’s fun to drive. It’s been towed for an engine issue once only, luckily it was under warranty. I’m looking into what to get next as I’d like a larger SUV that won’t break the bank outside of a warranty!
A barely 4 year old car and it's "only" been towed once. My car was over 8 years old, towed, and fixed within a couple hours. Three years and a 50k (260k total) later, and it hasn't needed a towed since.
Yes, my sarcasm must be hard to catch. I won’t be buying another one regardless of how fun they are to drive.
Test drove the BMW X3, nice interior but rode so rough. We bought a Genesis GV70. We absolutely love it.
To much technology, when something breaks it cost you a ‘arm & a leg’ to fix.
Bought a 2016 Honda CRV. We’ve never had problems.
The turbo powered CRV have more problems than the pre-2017
Wait what!! The #8 Nissan Rogue Sport know also as Nissan Qashqai is one of the most famous and popular cars in UK and Australia
They are reliable and cheap to own and maintain
I give you that they are under powered on the highway which makes sense in a big country such the US but when you can’t go over 100km/hr because of speed cams they’re fantastic city cars.
The only thing I learned is don’t ever buy a luxury SUV. But, I always thought they were overpriced garbage anyway. So I really didn’t learn anything as much as validating what I already knew.
I don't even see any Evoques or Discoveys on the roads anymore.
I live in Brisbane, Australia. I honestly see them both everyday.
I see them all the time around Atlanta.
2023 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid Limited - Oil pan leaks, and Hybrid/battery discharged to 0 when sitting parked in my garage for three weeks, while I was gone on vacation. The dealer said that's normal, live with it. Nope! I like to keep my cars 10+ years, and I could already see this one wasn't going to make it past the warranty; even worse when the dealer makes me wait 2 months for service on a new vehicle, and the waiting area is the size of a walk-in closet, and the bathroom had been out-of-order most of those times. A real S-Hole! Yeah, I'm talking about you Bud Clarey Hyundai, in Auburn, WA.
Is the fact the Macan is top of the list the fact that there is a waiting list to get one and so people are offloading at a premium
It's actually at the bottom of this list.
I drive a 2017 discovery sport with 90K kilometres. Most of us try to drive it on Eco mode and expect the turbo to kick in, which ends up with a delayed response/lag. Engage to the sports mode and it packs a punch big time. Last but not least never compromise on the gas. It calls for premium gas and not regular unleaded- very important. It’s not fair to blame the brand due to lack of knowledge or trying to be “penny wise pound foolish”.
My company runs 32 Land Rover Discovery sport, we have had no issues
This list is not very meaningful. Changing your vehicle is not always because of dissatisfaction. Many owners of luxury cars replace them simply because they can afford to do so.
Reliability, fuel consumption, owner satisfaction, and similar are all measurable. They provide an objective measurement of a cars merits.
Vehicles mentioned here are not necessarily bad or have poor owner satisfaction.
It's 2024...why is Land Rover still installing laggy turbo systems? Turbo-lag was mostly eliminated 15 years ago.
I gave up my 2023 Land Rover Discovery Sport after one year but to get a 2023 Land Rover Discovery instead. Sport was small for me but both are good luxury cars imo!
With so many luxury cars on the list, I'm thinking a lot of this has to do with people biting off more than they can chew rather than poor reliability (except for Land Rover and the Nissan Rogue, lol).
Well my 1987 4runner is still running good and still getting me everywhere I want to go. Its not pretty and its not modern but it does not bankrupt me when my electric bill show up.
The things is, these European vehicles feel much more luxurious on the inside, and luxury wears away after a year or two. They also are susceptible to a lot of leasing. I would expect 5-15% of the folks who drive these to get a new suv every year or two. You can get most of these for great prices if you buy them under 40k miles.
Buying any new vehicle today is like pouring money down a black hole. There's going to be some killer deals coming down the pipe soon. 6,7,8%+ interest rates with these prices??? Wow.
My only experience with dumping a new car after a year was my 2023nLexus NX350 F Sport. I bought it on impulse at the end of ‘22 and hated it. It has some nice technology for sure. But it is cramped, noisy (yes NOISY!), slow off the line and not much fun to drive. I could afford the mistake but would advise looking elsewhere
Test drove one and it felt so slow 🐌 and unrefined 2021 version
For the longest time, I wanted a Lexus NX. But life worked out otherwise and had to be realistic. Wound up with a CX 5 that is nice enough and meets my needs. Don’t feel like I settled at all.
I agree with this review.
I got rid of my Rogue Sport after 3 days. Granted, it was a rental but I thought they all were..
I have had 2 Porsche Cayenne , no problem s , I like to see the first year trade in of all manufacturers, i sure the stats are very similar, . People usually get rid of there cars in first year because if financial reasons.
How does one get rid of a newly leased car?
Not mention of Toyota,with entry level Nissan on list now discontinued, all rest high end European vehicles which suggest they over priced and over rated, if have LandCruiser,
Parado or a Forerunner/Fortuner in garage be there 10 years plus.
Just got a good lol when I heard 'Porsche Macan' and 'lower price' in the same sentence
Did GM or Stellantis pay for this rating?😂😂😂

Hyundai-Kia have the worst engine reputation of any vehicle in the world. My daughter's engine blew, and it was an 18 month wait to get it in the shop. Replacement engines were also on backorder. Unlike every other manufacturer in the world, the engine warranty is good to the original purchaser only. Her second engine blew, and she let them repossess it. It was a 2019, and went through 2 engines.

Guess I'm super lucky, have no 2.4 engine problems with either my 2019 or 2020 SEL Models. In- fact they both run and drive great.
Drove the 2019 130 miles yest averaged 33 Mpg and never have to add oil between 5000 mile oil changes on either,
And yet despite the internet, TH-cam channels, survey after survey, there are still a long line of people queuing up to buy these notoriously problematic vehicles every year.
Is the prestige or driving characteristics really that wonderful to throw away thousands of dollars?
These ads are just out of control
❤ Town car/Grand Marquis super solid
I couldn't ever afford most of these cars, so while I understand why you made the list, it has no relevance to me. 😮
AND ?
Other than the G Wagon, these are average priced cars these days bud.
@@342bossHardly.
Reasons people lease these for 10k miles. Even when they don’t break they need tires brakes struts. Very expensive to maintain. Had a 2014 Mercedes ML new was about 1k every 10 thousand miles to service. By 40k miles needed two additional sets of tires and brakes. Dealership said they go through tires because of the suspension. It rode and great, but traded it for Lexus Gx460. In 7 years and 80k Lexus has been substantially less to maintain, no it doesn’t drive is well but I prefer the money in my wallet.
Its all about buying something most people dont need and after playing w gadgets and gimmicks foe few dayas , honeymoon is over and reality of monthly payment sets in!
I still have my 2016 4Runner bought in 2015, just a practical car, no fuss/no muss.
Did he just say "46 million new car sales ? What planet is he from ???
Lots of European makes on this list. The only none European was a low cost SUV which one might expect people would get tired of quickly. Personally I've experience the worst buyer's remorse with GM vehicle. I never learn. I'll stay away,r sometimes for decades, but then try another and always disappointed. The 2020 Bolt had my wife asking if we could trade it in in less then 30 days. The Volt was sent back with still one year remaining on the lease. My wife gladly paid the remaining month's lease payments and just let them have it back early. Prior to that, it had been 2022 years since I bought a new GM, and I vowed never again back then. But, after their bankruptcy I had high hopes things had changed. It certainly wasn't for the better.
Land Rover have been going downhill since they were taken over by First On the Rubbish Dump. Very strange that no Chrysler/ Ford/ GM vehicles on this list.
All these vehicles are high end that people who really shouldn't have bought them did. That monthly payment was more than they could affort.c
to all you whiners i am 73 and coming up on 3 years of ownership of the new land rover defender 110. i have owned audi and MB and countless other makes and the land rover is by far the most pleasurable car i have ever owned. best ride, best tech, best quality build of all of them. i love it. wouldn't trade it for any other car.
I hated my RAV4.
Just traded in my ‘17 RAV. Hated the cheap interior, bought it in ‘19 as someone else’s lease turn in. Interior detail job wore off, and it was obviously a heavy smoker’s car. Had to keep it, but finally got rid of it last month.
A friend has a 2024 RAV, less than 6 months old & already has to replace the radio. The only thing working is the back up camera
@@twinklesrules Hearing more things like that about some RAVs. Getting more expensive and cheaper quality materials/workmanship.
I'm buying me a 2024 honda pilot by the end of this year, no turbo BS
Watch the video for reasons and more details, but for quick reference here's the list:
1. Land Rover Discovery Sport - 11.8% gotten rid of in 1st year
2. Land Rover Range Rover Evoque - 10.9%
3. BMW X1 - 10.4%
4. BMW X3 - 9%
5. Porsche Cayenne - 8.7%
6. Mercedes-Benz GLA - 8.5%
7. Mercedes-Benz G-Class - 8%
8. Nissan Rogue Sport - 8.1%
9. Porsche Macan - 6.3%
Unless you have money to burn, stick to reliable, inexpensive to buy and maintain, popular. Stay away from anything exotic, especially anything that comes from the EU. If you yearn for luxury, between Lexus, Genesis, Acura, Lincoln, Cadillac, and Infinity there's plenty to choose from.
Range Rover does it again…..my wife is frugal, pragmatic and conservative, but this is her dream car…..I just don’t get it.
From my experience, women have more of a tendency to pick a vehicle because of how it looks. Looks mean little to me. I go by quality/reliability, and performance. The vehicle also needs to suit my needs.
Most of the cars on the list are luxury SUVs and people buying them are mostly wealthy class who can afford changing cars every year. But it makes a lot of sense to see Nissan Rogue on the list 😂
The Evoque is a giant POS that'll have cooling issues, and the X1 is severely overpriced. Just get a CX30 and save yourself $20k.
Very telling that there are no Toyota’s on this list !
Why some car builder cant make a perfect car
Any Land Rover product would guarantee buyers remorse
Have you ever owned one?
Go Mazda baby!
😂
Toyota SUVs are the most reliable. Have 2003 Landcruiser with over 225k Mike's and still drives like new. Downside is poor gas mileage
All of these are endless money pits!!!
How in the hell do those unreliable car brands get people to pay those prices for crap??
Easy - no brand research and a sales person that convinces them that a pretty car just has to be great fun to own and drive.
The only reliable Land Rovers where the early Range Rovers the Series III and early Defenders.
Everything else is a NIGHTMARE of breakdowns. Absolute JUNK !!!! Worse are the Range Rovers.
2011 GLK 350. 4 MATIC.
Wonderful SUV.
SIMPLY WONDERFUL IN ALL ASPECTS.
Put a battery powered electric motor into anything and it’ll rocket to the top of the list.
None of these cars are a surprise to anyone following the car scene today: they are overpriced, expensive to own and maintain and insure, and have ridicules owner satisfaction ratings because they have such poor reliability. Inexpensive subscriptions to Consumer REports plus any one of the major car mags like Motor Trend, Car and Driver, etc., keep readers up to speed on these things. People who have average middle-class incomes like their vehicles to look good, drive well and to be reasonably cost-effective. People who have the money to burn for exotic cars have multiple cars and can afford rentals when their expensive cars are in the shop, having broken down.
Uh -that Porsche is not a SUV?.?
No Europe cars..Honda , Toyota, Mazda all dependable. Domestics are more iffy every year and Korean models are just OK.
This kind of list is meaningless. It's basically finance. People who return those are the result of "what you want vs what you can afford". Some people just cannot afford certain vehicles, yet their impulse took over when they sign on the dotted line.
Why do people buy what they can’t afford?
Just by a Lexus GX/LX or Land Cruiser. I dont know why anyone will buy a Land Rover or BMW SUV. The MB G-Class is just stupid.
No surprises on this list.
I haven't even gotten beyond the Porsche and I know darn well that the terrible, awful, unreliable, burst into flames Tesla Model Y (yes, it's capacious SUV) that I have in my own garage is NOT on this list. Only those who have planted the anti-Musk flag up their exhaust pipe and have never driven one would think that it would be.
Get yourself a Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max. Best SUV just behind Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
Porsche macan is the best car I have ever bought!
Toyota 4Runner. End of conversation
If you life very antiquated reliable vehicles. Yes.
