  • Ah, the allure of a brand-new car! Shiny, perfect, and covered by a cozy warranty. But beware - some cars hide ticking time bombs under their fresh paint. After 15 years of fixing cars, I’ve seen the nightmares that can unfold once that warranty expires. Here are ten vehicles you should consider ditching before it's too late:
    Ford Escape: Sleek design but plagued by engine failures and fire risks.
    Subaru WRX: Rally legend with a penchant for blown engines and turbo issues.
    Hyundai Palisade: Family-friendly but riddled with unreliable tech and engine problems.
    Ford Bronco Sport: Rugged looks, but major fuel injector and transmission issues.
    Buick Encore: Luxurious facade hides frequent transmission and electrical problems.
    Toyota Tundra (New Model): Formerly reliable, now struggling with engine failures.
    Nissan Murano: Midsize SUV with a laundry list of problems, from engine mounts to transmissions.
    Volkswagen Tiguan: German engineering marred by hesitation, oil consumption, and more.
    Chrysler Pacifica: Versatile minivan but a maintenance nightmare outside rental fleets.
    Jeep Cherokee: Rugged SUV with reliability issues and numerous recalls.
    These cars may seem appealing at first glance, but they can lead to costly headaches down the road. Save yourself the stress and avoid these models before your warranty runs out. Choose wisely, and may your drives be smooth and stress-free. See you next time!

    Can't agree less with the new generation vb wrx:
    Consumer Reports gives the 2024 Subaru WRX a predicted reliability rating of 5/5 and a predicted owner satisfaction rating of 5/5. They also predict that the 2024 WRX will be more reliable than other new cars based on similar models and Subaru brand scores

    Ford Escape due to 3 or 4 cyl ecoboost
    Subaru WRX due to head gasket and ring failures
    Hyundai Palisade due to cracking windshield (seriously) and a valve spring recall
    Ford Bronco Sport due to same engine as the Escape
    Buick Encore due to transmission and electrical problems
    Toyota Tundra with 3.5 turbo due to metal shavings gernading engines
    Nissan Murano due to fuel system, electrical and CVT problems
    VW Tiguan due to engine control gremlins
    Chrysler Pacifica due to brake, steering problems
    Jeep Cherokee due to engine and transmission issues, plus electronic and build quality concerns
    Honorable mention: Tesla 3 due to software and touch screen issues

    As a technician myself, I always advise my friends that Honda's and Toyota's are the safest bets for longevity due to lower maintenance costs, good depreciation, and above average reputation for long-term reliability. Though not perfect, Honda and Toyota are generally good.

      Current mazdas are more reliable than hondas. Or at least Hondas just having problems with some of their 9 and 10 speed trans. Also their newer 1.5t already has a reputation for blowing head gaskets. Also mazda is literally the safest in crashes and have had outstanding reliability for the last decade.

    Dude do your rsearch more the new fa24 motor on the wrx does not have any of the issues. Please do your research and realize this is not factual information. Only problem for 22 and up is 3rd gear issue which is few and far cases. Mostly due to the added power people doing.

    • @devoz7
      @devoz7 Před měsícem +1

      the fa24 is definitely an improvement from the fa20, but the transmissions on these are like glass. Multiple owners have reported their transmissions grenading themselves, and this is even in stock form. Look into the wrx forums

    Software updates for Tesla are one of the BEST features - you can schedule them to happen overnight and when you drive it in the morning you have bug fixes, security updates, and new features added. For instance my favorite recent update allows you to stand behind the vehicle with your phone key turned on and after 3 chimes the trunk opens automatically- perfect when you are carrying an armload of groceries.

      @@TinoMiller I know I was adding to what you said this is my opinion. It is a controversial one that EVEN FAMED CZcams mechanic car wizard supports. While ppl “ abuse” the vehicles and drive them like maniacs they are still running. That is what reliability means. Not if the cosmetic sunroof is working or if the paint is peeling. If you stick the key in and turn over the engine will it run and drive.

    All these "SUVs", not cars will lose their values.. Majority of the public now buying these SUVs don't know what a real "car" is. Didn't grow up with the mystique of a car and because not many "cars" on the market will definitely be a gap in the values of the used market.. The only used "cars" I predict would be way out of people's range on the used car market.. No electric car will be valuable in 10 years unless the name is Ferrari or McLaren..

    I got roasted when sharing my grievances on CZcams with wrxs, the fa20 to be exact. I took meticulous care of it's maintenence and didn't race it at every intersection, honestly, was such a shitty car to drive stock, I didn't bother try to have fun because it was so slow and tuned so horribly stock, that i just wanted to take it wasy till warrantyis up and then do some shit to it. I had rod bearing failure under 50k. Would regularly get ridiculed or criticized by subi fan boys about how I didn't maintain it, change oil, etc. Like they have some scripted note card collection to explain it away and gaslighting tactics. The furthest between changing oil I went was around 4k once. I check ALL past current, and future cars oil and coolant fluids routinely and it NEVER once was low on oil. So the only explanation I can think of, quality control issue in factory or shitty engine regardless. I did my due diligence and refuse to take blame. I've had over a dozen cars in my life and the wrx was the ONLY one with engine issues under 200k. Matter of fact no other car I've had including a c230 Benz, had engine issues. Had a base focus se 5mt and sold it for said wrx, at 248k miles. That car had some issues, but nothing serious and burned less than a qt every 5k miles. So any subaru ass kissers in comments who want to say something, go ahead, I've heard it all before.

I had a 95 Dodge Neon put 400,000 miles on it still running when I got rid of it. Replacement of transmission 240,000 miles. Damn best car ever owned. AND THAT'S A FACT SO PEOPLE CAN SAY HOW JUNKIE CHRYSLER IS BUT NO WORST THAN ANY THING OUT THERE. YOU WANT JUNK. TRY FORD , KIA, HYUNDAI. MORE RECALLS THAN YOU CAN KEEP UP WITH. FARLEY GIVE ME TWO YEARS LOL LIKE I SAID ANY CAR COMPANY' CAN HAVE A RECALL IT'S WHEN IT'S JUST OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND HYUNDAI AND KIA EVERYTIME YOU TURN AROUND RECALL , AND NOW IT'S THEIR NICE RIDE, THE TELLURIDE SO COMPLAIN ALL YOU WANT ABOUT CHRYSLER, THEIR STILL A LOT BETTER THAN THOSE BRANDS.
