I long for the day when planned obsolescence is considered fraud and everything is built to last forever.
For that we're going to need a Delorean, so we can go back to the 50s.
Sadly, it'll never happen as long as idiots continue to buy rubbish, only because they have the 'right' badge on the front.
Planned obsolescence is mostly a myth.
💯 because that’s what it is , fraud.
People aren’t planned to last forever
I remember how everyone hated Peugeot 407, my father bought one in 2013 an early 2004 model with 1.6 HDI with about 270 000 kms on it, we still own it, he wont change it, bcs of comfort he says and super low consumption, it has 440 000 kms now, no issues, never leaked and i abused the living thing out of it as my first car and nothing, just regular maintenance, changed clutch once in our ownership at around 330 000.
there is a differnece between Old and New olders were better and better parts but now they use only plastics and electronics
Those 1.6 HDI engines were pretty reliable, the problem was with the owners.
Im astounded that BMW never made this list! 😅
I still remember the golden age of BMW 80s and 90s. Sad..
Obviously an oversight 😂
Bmw is no. 8th in the top most reliable according to consumer survey, look it up. Audi and Merc are 26& 28... But there have been a bunch of bad engines from bmw, and expensive repairs on F10 or X5 for example, so you prob got one of those infamous engines... since 2014 bmw seems to have improved a lot. It all depends what you compare, even Toyota and Lexus are not as reliable on diesel engines, just gasoline.
I own X5 and X3.
They are performance cars
They are robust and long lasting as long lasting if you do regular maintenance
@7Li0ns if your information is from JD power I call bs😂😂😂😂 chevy 3 million recalls and at the top???? Get outta here
Remember when Mercedes Benz were engineered to last 300,000 miles
I work as a mechanic at audi and it is so clear that quality worsens with every year, and audi is still one of the better ones….youd think that cars get better over the years but they really dont. The newer audis are mereley a farcry of what the brand used to make.
Hi ! Am a considering a 2018 Porsche Cayenne 3.0 v6 gasoline used at 35k miles, Porsche serviced , looks in great condition. Am not a rich guy, don't wanna mess with huge repair bills that are unjustified.. What's your though on this car (I think the Cayenne engine is Audi made 😄) ? Thanks !!
@@georgepotcovaru2595 Have not you answered your own question?!
Question: Audi (as well as BMW and Mercedes) calls for oil changes every 10,000 miles/16,000 km. I realize not all reliability issues relate to the engine, but if someone changed oil every 5,000 miles/8,000 km as Toyota and other manufacturers recommend, would that improve the powertrain reliability? Oil is a lot cheaper than expensive engine repairs. (A former Nissan “Z” car engineer went a step further: he recommended oil and filter changes for performance cars every 6,000 miles, and a “dump and fill” oil change every 3,000 miles between full service.)
Got the new Astra in July last year, it lasted 5 months and then the entire electrical system shit the bed. Its still at the dealership waiting for parts.
Had a 160iE Astra.......was overjoyed when it left my life after two years!!
This fellow is great. He is honest, direct, and humourous! I am happy owning a Toyota.
Thanks! And thanks for watching! 👍
the most boring car on the planet
@@robertceroli3512 Depends which Toyota
At RobertC:
The most boring cars are the ones that leave you sitting on the side of the road.
@@robertceroli3512that's the lie you tell yourself to not feel bad about your car that's breaking down every full moon
This guy is right. My Alfa spends more time being repaired than on the road
I think alfa is very reliable.
My grandad had 6 alfa.
Now he driver a 156 Sw 1.9 JTD 8v 105 hp, it has 23 years and 275k km.
Never had a problem
My dad had 2 156.
A 2.4 jtd 150 hp. Never had a problem
A 1.9 jtd 115 hp, never had a problem.
My uncle had a 156 1.8 TS 144 hp, never had problem
My other uncle had a 156 1.9 jtd.
Never had a problem
A 147 drived to death with 432k km on it. Never had problem
I'm kind of surprised that BMW didn't make the list.
BMW are very very reliable cars more reliable then people realise one of the most reliable cars on the road they are actually 2ed most reliable car after Toyota
@@blakejohnson2862 Very reliable yes yes yes yes..... keep that kid oppinion for yourself
@@blakejohnson2862second most reliable. ??😂 Go touch some grass kid.
BMW and Mercedes repairs used to be expensive but they also held up well. About 15 years ago they started using more plastic parts in the wrong places, so now you get both expensive and more frequent repairs.
I'm 70 later this year and I don't understand why, in recent years, things are getting worse instead of better! Are people not trained in design, manufacture and maintenance these days? Money talks, quality walks.
Everything gets worse when the accountants take control. Television programs, movies, airlines, cars, white goods, to name a few.. Everything is disposable. Thanks for watching..
You summed it up right on! Not sure when this changed over but selling cars takes presidence over providing cars some time back.
I m 61 . It's a scam world now . Profit profit money money. This is our new God.
Cars aren’t bought and owned the way they were in the past, they’re essentially rented for a couple of years and moved on. Manufacturers encourage this to increase sales (they don’t want you buying one of their cars and actually KEEPING it!) so they only have to build a car that lasts as long as the first finance agreement. Beyond that, it’s someone else’s problem and if it fails before the warranty expires they can always argue about it. Essentially, cars are now made to last 3 years, yet we keep being told how much “greener” they now are which is absolute crap. The greenest thing to do is build cars that last 200k miles at least.
I’ve learned that whenever I ask myself why something is the way it is, the answer is nearly always the same: Money.
Style over substance nowadays
Remember the late 70s when Jag's were so unreliable that there was a saying...
"You need two to keep one on the road"!
A time when workers and management of UK manufacturers were bickering a lot...
In Australia we got a design just for us - the Leyland P76.
Drove well and you could fit a 44 gallon drum in the boot.
Build quality was so bad they ended up closing the factory...
Great and insightful content with absolutely spectacular delivery👍👍
SO GLAD you have Peugeot on your list as I have a 308. Whoo hoo! Made the cardinal sin of filling it with fuel with a HIGHER octane than recommended and even so it broke down after driving 10 feet! It drops more oil than Exxon so I can always find it in a car park which is great! French cars sell in miniscule numbers in Oz. I understand why now. After reading an edition of "Wheels" magazine some years back and then buying one I thought I was buying a good product. I wasn't...and I didn't. Thanks Peugeot! You used to build some great models (205 GTi, 504, 404) but now you build merde. I hope your company goes down the proverbial backyard dunny!
😂😂 That's funny. Sorry to hear about your Peugeot. I hope you get rid soon.. And you're right. I'd still love a 205 GTi, 505 Gti or 309 GTi..
Thank God they are not sold in USA
If 'Wheels' recommends something it's not likely to be much good. They exist for the car companies and even had the cheek to say it (but got caught out). Their reviews are a pack of interchangeable cliches and barely readable. Finally I have to say, having heard it somewhere - I'd rather push a Toyota than drive a Range Rover.
This was hilarious, subbed
I stumbled on the channel today - love it👍👏
That's great to hear. Please stick around and watch a few more if you can. 👍
The algorithm brought me here. Some of the brands you listed are not available in the US (happily) but, among those that are, IMHO, you nailed it. The otherwise inexplicable popularity of Jeeps is due to the desire of fat, old, bald men in bill caps to be considered battle-hardened soldiers ready for combat. Honest, that's it. If they painted them olive green and put machine gun mounts on top, they'd sell even more.
That's funny. 😂
😂
I’ll take the Jeep.
The machine gun mounts are right up my street.
Is Olive green an option? Sign me up.
It's rather ironic that Jeep was born in WWII. 20 years ago Germans owned them, now Italians. Toyota needs to buy them now to make it complete.
I have a Nissan Frontier with 150k miles on it. My wife drives an Altima with similar mileage. We have had zero problems with both vehicles. But we drive primarily on the highway and are diligent about maintenance.
That's good news. What engine is it? My understanding is the French engines are the ones that give the trouble... Thanks for watching. 👍
As an American who owns a Honda and a Toyota, I think your presentation is spot on.
Everybody whose car's manufacturer WASN'T on this list heaves a massive sigh of relief.
That doesn't mean your car's brand is any good. Might have been a near miss because it wasn't just shitty enough. Or it has a couple of great models that spoil the brand's crappy performance of all its other models.
Being able to buy a second hand Bentley doesn't mean you can afford the maintenance bills.
VERY dissapointed that Land Rover are not No.1.. i still own one.. i am an idiot😂
Surprised Chevy isnt in this list.
I’m in Canada and own a 92 Cherokee…amazing vehicle with an engine (4L straight 6) that just won’t quit. I wouldn’t touch a new Jeep! I also ride a 93 BMW K 75 RT and have a 87 Toyota 1 ton duelly with the famous 22re. I think I’m done with newer vehicles.
Old school is the way forward. Thanks for watching. 👍
I have a 93 Cherokee. 250k miles. They last forever. New jeeps are trash. I bet a base model wrangler with the manual transmission isn't too bad. It's always the electronics that fail.
A one ton dually with a 4 cylinder, that's crazy! I bet its a dog trying to pull anything but its a Toyota so it won't quit.
There are also a few german, chinese, indian, spanish brands who should be on this list...
Well to be fair, it's only a list of the 10 worst. Not being on that list doesn't mean the brand is any good. Just lucky to be that tiny bit more reliable to miss No.10.
Great stuff I have had four Skodas over the last few years and never had a problem great cars and always reliable !!
the old ones could rack up 1,5 Million KM with the 1,9 TDI
No difference between a Skoda and a VW/SEAT/AUDI
I retired a year and used pool cars. At one time the company used Vauxhalls but changed 9 years ago to Peugeot. All Diesel’s. For the first 5 years none of them had an unplanned visit to the repair shop. The transport manager said the Vauxhalls were regularly in for faults. I think they were designed by accountants not engineers.
Always good to hear real world examples. Thanks for watching!
Look at the history of Carlos Ghosn’s leadership. He obliterated the quality of many proud names including Nissan by using cheap parts and initially capitalizing on brand loyalty while giving no concern to the future of the company when he knows he’ll be long gone when even staunch followers noticed the severe drop in quality and reliability.
His criminal activity is also in question.
How that guy isn't in jail is a tragedy.. Thanks for watching. 👍
His biggest scam was buying Nissan. Should have left to rot.
Best vid i've watched for ages 😀
Great, I'm really pleased you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.. 🙂
I can't believe landrover wasn't 9th. Oh hang on I got the list the wrong way around.
😂😂
Tbh, the opel one got me shocked cuz my dad used to own Astra, and my granny owned two generations of corsa and we never had any trouble, matter of fact the older corsa got scraped this year but bear in mid that this car was like 18-24 yeras old and technically it still worked but it was time to get new car. Idk about astra cuz my father sold it long time ago but I never heard him complain
I bought my used 2017 Astra 1.5 years ago. No troubles yet. And my 2005 Astra before that was a very good car that I bought in 2010. They are dirt cheap compared to similar Golfs. But I cannot see they are worse by any means, especially looking at friends cars.
You are soooo damn funny! You’re like a stand-up, though I think you’re actually sitting, comedian that roasts cars. At least in this vlog anyway. I’ll have to check out some of your other posts. Cheers!
✌🏻👍🏻✌🏻
Thanks for the kind words... I'm really happy you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. 👍
Great video, loved it.
Thanks Brian, glad you enjoyed it! 👍😀
No surprises there Will. I used to work for JLR and generally the build quality is good even if reliability is iffy. I also had a bunch of JLR company motors that were eminently reliable. However, I’ve just bought an old RRover Vogue aaaaaand yeah not so much. But having had a bunch of LR products over the years I knew what I was getting into. I don’t mind a bit of tinkering and the feeling a RR gives you is unique. “Above & Beyond”….. all the peasants 😂
Great to see you back on YT. Keep it coming and more adventures with you and Sid would be awesome. 👏
Thanks Phil, more on the way..
@@CarTrouble Am I wrong in thinking the X350 Jags were the last good ones?
Are you sure it wasn't the XK150? 😂
@@blzebub2My 20 year old X350 XJ6 is no more problematic than any other old car I’ve owned. Service it on time, change the oil every 5-6k, fix the little problems as they arise and you’re good to go. A lovely way to travel.
@@numberstationThanks for replying, and I agree that those old XJs are very comfortable cars to ride in, although I've never driven one. I have a 1993 W124 300E saloon, which I guess is roughly the German equivalent. If I ever get rid of it, I would certainly be looking at an X350 for sure.
As a Ford driver I knew full well this list would not have been complete without Ford being on it 😂😂
Great vid cheers I always say a car is has good has the owner ie keep it serviced and love it.
Thanks. I couldn't agree more. Although I know folks with Range Rovers who love them and spend massive amounts on them, and they still get let down.... thanks for watching 🙂
The random, unpredictable failures despite perfect maintenance that plague the unreliable junk produced now and in the past are the killers.
I listened confidently that my favourite makes would not appear on the list, Lexus and Toyota. But, you cannot stick with them or you will get bored, yes bored to tears. Variety is the spice of life. Sooner or later you have to sell the best car in the world and venture forth come what may.
Or have two cars, something interesting, and something you know will work when you need it.. Thanks for watching..
Hey! My self-defeating spoiler on my Bentley is a special feature. It makes the car slightly faster and it keeps carjackers away. And that smell of wires going bad reminds me why I love that car.
😂😂 I think I had a similar experience to you with Bentley ownership. I made a video about if you're interested.. czcams.com/video/2HQDorxFZKk/video.html
I have owned a Velar first edition from new 3.litre v6 and it has never let me down ,i have full Guy Salmon service history till 2021 when i discovered a fully trained mechanic within 2 miles of my house which has reduced my costs by 70% and any tyres/brakes he gets for me Rover approved, it pays to shop around my car has just been valued at 25990 so im very happy and still get asked have i had any trouble? It pays to look after her and i always will ,i can't see myself parting with her ?
Great presentation 👍👍👍👍
I'm pleased you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. 👍 Please do check out some of my other videos if you get a chance..
Haven't changed my cars in 25 years, but no surprises on this list. Jeep were death traps in WW11, Alfa's and Fiats were crap in the sixties, and only Italians in Adelaide ever bought them. Datsun became Nissan, and then partnered with the French for the hardware? And all German cars now make plastic parts, to save weight, including plastic manifolds. Will they last 5 years? I drive a 1998 Holden Commodore, and it still runs like new. The climate in Queensland Australia helps.
The 90s Holden Commodore's were solid cars. Very similar to the European Opel/Vauxhall Omega donor car, but with proper, over engineered V6's and V8s, rather than the wheezy 1.8 and 2.0 straights 4s we got. Although we did get a 3.0 V6 but not as many sold. Your car is in the durability class of Toyota Camry and Lexus ls400, keep it forever!
I thought that Alfas only became 'crap' after they were taken over by FIAT? Likewise, Lancia.
I had to smile as Volkswagen was not mentioned here! I recently purchased a Passat CC 2.0 TDi and I adore it, beautiful car! But arguments aside, I think much about how reliable a car is, this is about good timely maintenance schedule , proper servicing and periodic checks on service items. The reality is, any machine is only as reliable as how often you attend to its upkeep.
Yes, I think the top 10 swap out every year as there are at least 15 crap car manufacturers to choose from. VW's recent reputation was news to me as I still have 2 VW diesels from the '98 - 2003 period. Old school bulletproof...
Yeah, people say that all the time. Fact is that a lot of cars are trash right off the assembly line. They break down repeatedly and unexpectedly despite maintenance by the book.
There are some brands and models significantly more prone to problems or break downs.
@@wholeNwon Of course, I'd be kidding myself to suggest otherwise. This ultimately is human error, poor quality audit and just shoddy workmanship. BL made some good cars but the assembly line staff caused so many manufacturing and logistical issues causing late customer deliveries due to repeated striking back in the 70's and 80's.
@wholeNwon that's because when a transmission fails on the inspection line ford, chevy or dodge line its the customers problem. Its ok send it they'll be back to buy another car anyways. It's American made after all right.......😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The fact that Jeep supplanted Land Rover for the top spot is so surprising
I agree, though they are a bit cr@py now. Remember that Fiat now owns them.
Good video. I’m a master mechanic and you are right on target with this survey! (not to burst anybody’s bubble out there!)
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Although its not my list, its from the owner surveys so you'd hope its reflective of whats going on.. I know of a few more I'd like to see in the list.. Thanks for watching. 👍
I am sure you have your methods of compiling this list and I will not say it is rubbish, but I will offer my experience on one brand. I had a transport company for ten years and always had exlusively Fiat Ducato and Doblo, and for private use Grande Punto and Tipo. I (and other drivers) traveled Europe many times over with both the Ducatos and the Doblo and never had any hint of an issue, Doblo currently has 350000 km and is used privately without a fail. The Grande Punto once took me from Zadar (coast of Croatia) to Southampton almost without stops, it was a very unpleasant ride as the car was not bulit for such long trips but I had no issues whatsoever, the Punto is now retired with 300000+ km. The Tipo has 250000km and I am currently selling it because I dont need it any more but is still a very good reliable car.
I just bought a Mercedes GLE, own it for two months so cant really say much about reliability (aside from one issue that I had) but overall I am extremely sattisfied with the comfort, driving, economy, ... The issue that I had is a glass between the windshield and the panorama roof shattering on its own (I found this happend to a lot of people, probably a design flaw) and I am taking it to the dealer tomorrow to see if the warranty covers it.
Our Zafira was OK but thst lifetime warranty helped towards the end 2 air con pumps, clutch master cylinder, coil pack, water pump being the most memorable but if you can find a decent VX dealer you might be OK. Sons bought a Pug 308 against my advice as that wet belt engine has to be watched so far one breakdown fuel pump pipe detached and I reckon the DMF clutch will give up sooner than hoped nice spec car otherwise though. Had a few Fiat's over the years mostly OK but a thermostat housing with s plastic water pipe screwed into it was never going to end well with it becoming brittle must have saved a whole £1.50 at build.
They still use plastic coolant parts. They haven't learned a thing. (Or don't give a sh*t.. )
I’m very happy that my favourite brand wasn’t on there. I’m not surprised that merc is on the list, with its Renault engine.
Keep up the great work and you are great at delivering information. Cheers. Matt
Is your favourite brand BMW, by any chance? 😂
@@CarTrouble It could be 😂
I used to love them, right up to about 2010, then I started to notice they're just not like they used to be. Give me an E30 or an E34 any day!
@@CarTrouble Even though I am still a BMW fan boy, I can see what you mean. It’s a shame. Even my 1 series has a Peugeot engine. I have been lucky with mine, but I hear so many things about BMW 4 pots and the Prince engines.
The 80/90s was the golden era, in my eyes. I have wanted an E31 since I was about 4/5 years old.
As the only other person who may be interested, I saw 2 pristine Z1's at the eurotunnel a few weeks back. Next to each other.
"Built to last about a week." I spilled my drink. 😄
The new Jeeps are downright dangerous. The engine can cut out unexpectedly while you are just driving straight on the highway (or motorway for those of you in the UK. 🙃 ).
Wranglers are rolling death traps.
Its a shame. They could be so good if the Jeep Execs gave a sh*t! Thanks for watching. 👍
I can relate as I have a new 2022 Jeep Renegade and believe me or not 20 days ago it happened to mine. Exactly as you described!!
I was driving on the highway when it happened, a sudden message popped up in the panel “service engine” and the injector icon turned on in the panel. The the engine started cutting down when the pointer gets near 2k and I could not go faster than 40-50km/h on the highway.
It was not the first issue I had with this car, but it was the first to put my life in danger. I’m selling it asap
No surprise here! Please do a vid on the MOST reliable cars 👍🏻
I'll do that! Thanks for watching. 👍
Good stuff !
Cheers Stephen. 😀
I remember older cars being trash that rotted before the engine went.
My experiences are that Vauxhalls have an engine light that lives on, Renaults can be similar but also suffer from coil pack problems.
Toyota, bullet proof but i was always having break pipes advisory even when i had them sorted twice and also need new springs at low miles.
Clutch on the aygo, my other Toyota went too and that also needed new springs at 28k.
Not something that I've experienced but ... Ecoboom. Cam belt on Citroens.
Bmw engine failure, vw gearbox failure.
Is there a car that doesn't have a reputation for something?
You make a good point. Hyundai maybe?
Lovely stuff!
Thanks bud!
Got a 2012 focus zetec s. 130’000 miles. Been through one clutch, a set of injectors, two callipers, and two electric steering racks. Shame as it’s a lovely drive and well equipped and really economical
My 2019 Jag E Pace has been just about faultless. Only the power tailgate which decided to give up recently. Previously I had a Quashqi and that was dreadful.
Qashqi's are terrible. I'm glad the E pace is serving you well.. Thanks for watching. 👍
I'm amazed that the Mazda CX-5 with the 2.2 diesel didn't make the list: sump oil strainer and pipework that clogs with carbon deposits, head gaskets that blow for a pass-time, turbos that self-destruct. Dreadful heap.
Yes, Mazda don't do diesels well.. Thanks for watching. 👍
My cars now are older in terms of their actual year produced than anything I have ever owned prior and the amount of issues I now have is far-far less (almost never)... reason being I focused on quality (80s diesel mercedes, 90s Toyota land cruisers for ex) over having something new and flashy... and the piece of mind and extremely cheap maintenance cost - is simply awesome.
Someone with a ford mustang dark horse had it brand new for about a week when the transmission started having problems
So the most common denominator is Stellantis.
Indeed. They're like an awful disease to the car industry. Its a tragedy why these purveyors of total crap are growing, and SAAB has gone.. Thanks for watching. 👍
Hilarious, I especially loved the Landrover joke.😂
I'm pleased you enjoyed it - Thanks for watching!
Peugeot: French build quality, build to last a week😂😂😂. My neighbor has a new 308 and has the motor replaced two times in the first year. LMAO
Nice to see Stellantis are dominating the awards - Vauxhall, Peugeot, Alfa Romeo, Fiat & Jeep! Only surprise was that Citroen (or DS) hadn't made in there as well!
Golf 8 has quite a few problems from what I seen on forums
the sat nav in my mates VW Caddy Van can’t find Northampton?
Surprised Cadillac isn't on this list.
There's only room for 10. I think we need a bigger list.. Thanks for watching!
They are nicknamed Crapallacs for a reason 😂😂
Well I have to say I've been extremely 'lucky' in my car purchases since 1984 when I bought the Mk1 Astra 2 door 1.3 petrol hatch second hand. Since then I have bought every mark, all second hand, from diesels to petrol, hatchback and estates, manual and to date, mk 8 auto, all second hand, some lasting over 130,000 miles and none have ever broken down. Sure, the mark 7 estate 1600 petrol estate did have a couple of minor issues, like the coil pack failing but all the others, over a timescale of 40 years, have been very reliable. I would suggest that because these cars are relatively cheap, people just get in and drive and haven't given a thought to regular maintenance.
My latest will probably be my last car though. I usually own mine for about 10 years.
Thank you for the video, I am a big Ford fan, unfortunately they have shown to give problems in the past. I am very fortunate not to experience any problems. Very shocked about Land rover
FIAT - “Fix It Again Tony”😂
I like my subaru xv but ive had alot of problems with the battery, my car is less than 4 year old and its on its 5th battery
I am in South Africa and own a 2009 Volvo XC60 3.0T AWD with 172 000 km on the clock. Extremely heavy on petrol if you use it as a daily commuter, but I use mine only for holidays with trips varying between 250 and 1300 kms. It's not too bad, consumption-wise, on long trips. Other than that, it's without question the best car I've owned and the performance is sports car level.
Toyota is the best. Mine is 15 years old, 210K km's, only thing that failed was the bulb of the number plate lighting
They are very good. Hopefully they won't have the accountants cutting costs like all the other manufacturers. Thanks for watching..
I drove my nissan micra shitbox for 12 years, never gave me any trouble but I never felt safe on it. Got it in 2011 brand new for 6k usd cash. The good old times where you could buy a news car paying cash.
Oh the transmission was manual and now I just got a new yaris
6k USD for a new Micra? Wow! That would've been nearer 13k GBP in the UK in 2011.
Yeah it was the base drive version, no airbags, no ac, no radio, not hydraulic wheel (was very hard to steer).no electronic stability control, lol that version only was able to be sold in Mexico and Canada. But it was brand new and my dad got it for me as my first car. I sold it to my cousin to buy a new yaris 2024, I like small reliable cars.
It was very unsafe, but very reliable, it never had any problems, the battery even lasted like 11 years lol It was standard transmission tho, I would never buy a nissan cvt.
IDK why people buy unreliable cars ?
@@CarTrouble
Great video! By the way what do you think of GMC? Would you say it’s a reliable car brand?
Thanks for that, I wouldn't like to say, we don't really have GMC over here..
If you're wanting the top of the line General Motors truck then GMC is the way to go.
Are you doing 10 best cars? Very happy with my Skoda Superb.
I will. Thanks for watching..
Out of around 18 cars i have owned over 43 years the worst one for reliability was a Range Rover P38 closely followed by a Rover 820Se.. the rest have been mainly reliable.
I got into Lexus a few yesrs ago and now on my third (all RX450h).. the only problem out of all 3 was a broken rear spring when it was 10 year old.
So just avoid anything from Birmingham then!
26 yrs with my still-great LS400. I hope never to part with it. I bought it on the advice of a Certified MB Master Tech. who replaced the timing belt on one for a friend of his and was very impressed.
Brilliant car! I'd love to have one.. Never sell it!
Sad to see Jaguar here but can confirm. I have a x260 XF and it's less reliable than my first car which was a 35 year old Golf that had been throught a lot of pain and suffering.
Good cars vauxhall had one for 16years no prob still have it
I never tend to buy newer cars rather wait for the model to be at least 6 or 7 years in the market to see the common issues and repair costs.
Absolutely spot on regarding all of these rubbish transports.
I just took it from the owner surveys. There's manufacturers I'd add to the list in my opinion.. Thanks for watching. 👍
My 2009 Jaguar XF Supercharged had transmission and rear diff problems after 80,000 miles. It's in the garage. My 2018 Jaguar F-PACE S with 64,000 miles has been bullet proof. It's my daily driver.
Good to know. I did a video on the F-Pace and I was quite surprised.. Its here if you're interested czcams.com/video/CDMHc-Qnryw/video.html
64,000 miles and “bullet proof”?
Is that like… good numbers for a Jag? 😂
I've owned Peugeot for 40 years and they've been brilliant. Modern ones do have electronic issues but everything else is good. The older ones are legendary reliability and durability
What does Rubbisheist mean in English? I have owned many reliable Vauxhalls, one very unreliable Mazda 6 and currently own one of my most reliable cars in fifty plus years of motoring. It is a 2017 Jaguar XF and there are very few vehicles on the market that I would swap it for - looks, runs and drives so well.

The new Fiat 500 (Hyprid) appears to be very good.
Had 2 BMWs since 2015 and never skipped a beat.
Service them regularly, look after them and do preventative maintenance on them.
Power washed underneath, detail the bodywork and they come up a treat.
One thing I notice is the bodywork on BMW is FAR superior to Toyota , Nissan Vauxhall etc.
I had an Alfa Romeo long ago. It provided me with 21/2 years of mostly misery, with a few heavenly moments when it worked, which was very rarely. It was very unreliable and would cease to function without warning leaving immobile on a major highway .
The dci Renault engine is known to be very reliable. I have one in my Renault Kangoo from 2008. Never a problem.
That's good to hear. I hope it stays that way. Thanks for watching..
Mine was a heap of rubbish...injections and heat plugs failed after 28000 miles
In my opinion, the problems with vehicles started when politics got involved with more and more regulations regarding consumption and the regulation of CO2 emissions. The inevitable use of expensive electronics forced manufacturers to save on other components in order to keep prices lower. This was the beginning of the end for almost all vehicle brands worldwide.
Spot on. Thanks for watching. 👍
Had a fiat punto once and can honestly say scrapping it improved it 100 percent. Spares silly money too.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
#CarTrouble. I've owned over 15 different makes. The worst BY A MILE is my current SUBARU XV 2013. at 60k mls all 4 wheel bearings, 65k main prop shaft, took of under trays full of crap, only 50% of the underbody had been rust treated at the factory, every single pipe/cable hangar was rotted away, rot everywhere. 70k both front trailing arms, both front wishbones. 72.5k complete rear suspension structures, front caliper, both front discs. Not a single garage will work with CarCarePlan warranty so all paid by myself.
Wow. I'm shocked by your Subaru experience! I thought they were doing it right.. I hope it works out.. Thanks for watching. 👍
No Lemon Law? I would've dumped it and run.
Although Range Rover v6 engines are unreliable when fitted to jaguars are ok. Don’t forget Ford owned jaguars.
How can people be angry on hearing the truth about the car brand they have? I would understand if the owners were sponsered and paid to smile and pretend they love their car but in fact they are getting screwed over by the manufacturer and they LOVE it. 🤷🏻♂️
Stellantis takes 5 out of the 10 available ranks. They are in the bottom of every reliable ranking, not just this one. How can they still be in business?
I have no idea. I'd love to say its corruption, but people still freely buy their cars. I'm baffled..
Car buyers are often VERY stupid.
Because Stellantis has a lot of famous car brands under their umbrella. And a lot of people don't know Stellantis owns and makes said brand. I'm sure a lot of people think they are getting some kind of American car when they buy a Jeep despite it being nothing more than an American name slapped onto a French/Italian car. And a lot of people just buy certain brands out of habit.
Because idiots still think Jeep is a warhorse 😅😅
They still exist because they'r affordable. You can get a fully optioned 508 for the price of a base C class
I once asked a nice highly modified wrangler owner if his Jeep was reliable. He said “no, but there is a way to make it reliable. Step 1: buy it new. Step 2: do all the recommended maintenance. And step 3, the most important step: don’t modify it”
You still planning to do a video on the car models?
I sure am, thanks for watching. 👍
@@CarTrouble Great, looking forward to it.
I am just a bit surprised that you didn't mention the 'wet belt syndrome' of many of the Stellantis/Ford/Opel/Vauxhall products. What a bad product! - And I am the happy owner of a Toyota Hybrid......
Yes, the wet belt system is a nightmare. But for some reason didn't get mentioned in the owner surveys... Give it time I guess. Thanks for watching. 👍
I knew going in that VW reliability was poor, but here I am going on 9 years on my Golf MK7 3-door running a stage one tune with zero mechanical failures so far.
I had a 09 altima and it was ok. Bought it used and had it for 2years amd Didn't have any problems really. I got rid of it because I knew there were issues right around the corner. Traded it for a brand new sentra and that car was awful. I regretted buying that car almost immediately. My first car was a 87 maxima and that car could not be killed. That car had a ton of miles on it. I traded our sentra for a Camry se in 2018 and we still have it and it has been a great car. Ended up buying a tacoma less than a year latter and its awesome. I'll never buy Nissan again. No idea why I didn't buy toyota sooner. We have 5 toyotas now.
Ford USA stopped selling the Crown Vic to the general public in the late Noughties. Production lasted until 2012 but exclusively for police and taxi fleets. The last batch off the production line was to fulfil an order from the Saudi police force in 2013. American police vary from place to place but the Crown Vic was largely replaced by SUVs, particularly the Ford Explorer in its Police Interceptor Utility guise. A minority of police forces still use cars, mainly the Dodge Charger, as inner city patrol cars but EVs are the next big thing with green-minded municipalities.
Very amusing. Unclear how anyone could be annoyed with you…
Proud owner of several Alfas - loved and was very grateful for your intro to FIAT 😂
“…with none of the style”
You can't please everyone.... I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching. 👍
I am surprised Maserati didn't make it to the list.
Do you know what jeep stands for? The original jeep was a one off created by a government program for war. They called them GP for short. Over the years GP turned into 'jeep' very interesting. Top of the class!
I did know that. One of the few things I know.. 😂
General Purpose. 2 companies were in the final competition.
Buy Suzuki,reliable and economical from South Africa
Scared me with the Toyota in the thumbnail
