Thanks for ur info .

I thought Tesla should be in this list. So many recalls of that brand, recently there is recall over 2 millions AUTO Pilot malfunction of Model 3.

My 2019 Chrysler Pacifica has been flawless so far! But it was made before Stellantis.

Very good show! Excellent pacing and great explanations. Thank you.

I'm only surprised that the North American manufacturers are still producing sub par vehicles. This has been going on for decades. It's not the workers fault. North American workers build many Japanese cars here and they build good cars. The Germans are still living on a long past reputation. They still have snob appeal though so that explains why they still sell for stupid prices. It's all unfortunate though because it reduces competition, forcing a much more aware consumer to migrate to 3 or 4 car makers. The makers, in turn, jack up their prices and there goes affordability.

My CX5 is approaching it's 2 year birthday and so far so good. I am sure there are owners of many brands out there who are happy with their cars and really that's the way it should be. But if I had to buy a new car today I would go with Mazda or Toyota or Subaru (not the Ascent) or Honda. I get it that they are all from one country, but that's my list.

I wouldn't buy anything outside of the Mazda, Toyota, Subaru or Honda line-ups and I'd probably opt fot the models actually built in Japan. Why would anyone buy anything else?

Can you reveiew year by year. For example reliable and un reliable car and suvs from 2015 as of today... Thanks

My dad had a ford f150 and had nothing but troubles with it for 3 years. He sold it.

❤ this video Very accurate video. I would like to add that any models with Ford’s Ecoboost, KIA’s Turbo, Hyundai’s Turbo and Honda’s Turbo engines are absolutely garbage. The Durango with a 3.6 Pentastar is actually very reliable and durable. Ask any auto shop if anyone has doubts.

I own a 2023 Ford escape hybrid and it is excellent. I keep seeing it compared to the RAV4 favorably sometimes even finishing above it. I also see it at 81 for reliability.

After watching lots of videos about car reliability the conclusion is always the same: BUY TOYOTA or HONDA.

I have seen some ford explorer or expedition with 250,000 miles on it and still going strong. How do you describe it as unreliable ? It depends on the owners, if you take good care of your car, it will take care of you

I have a 2008 Chrysler Sebring hardtop convertible with over 190,000 miles. I've had only 2 problems: the oil pump died at about 150000 miles and now there is something wrong with the hardtop mechanism. Unfortunately, Chrysler/Dodge dealerships will not repair it because the car is too old for them since they no longer have parts for a car that old and they are prohibited from using non-Chrysler made parts. Garages and repair shops don't want to deal with it even those that replace "rag tops". I've owned Chrysler vehicles continuously since 1984 starting with the Chrysler Caravan. My favorite car was the 1990 Plymouth Laser which I owned for 18 years. It ran great with no mechanical problems. It just rusted out on me because of the salt. I live in New England and the roads are salted every winter. I also go to the beach everyday, weather permitting.

Almost every vehicle now is good and reliable. If you take good care of it, it will take care of you

I agree with this list. But you could also add any British or Italian car easily. Mercedes should be ashamed of itself for ripping people off.

Excellent report thx, found it very informative

Do you think you can do more videos on Ford and Chevy overall because they're domestic (ik you're canadian but that's close enough)? Whenever you cover the worst vehicles, Stellantis always shows up and sometimes Lincoln, but the other American brands rarely show up in either the best or the worst so I am guessing they're just middle of the road in reliability overall. Anyway, could you maybe do a video on Chevy talking about their best and worst cars (new or used) and the same with Ford? They're very common cars in America that are relatively cheap so I see a lot of people asking about them. I know you have talked about their ecoboost engines being horrible but that's about it.

Completely agree with the list. I've never owned any of these brands and will never do it.

Biggest surprise was the turnaround from RAM. I had a 2005 with many emission and power train issues when dodge made the truck but have bought 4 since RAM was its own brand and have suffered very few repairs. I put many miles on them and besides poor fuel economy I’m happy with the brand. I also had a 2018 Camry xle v6 too of the line in the new style that had quite a few issues. That was puzzling.

Traded a 2017 Ford Explorer Sport which I liked for a new 2020 Ford Explorer Limited. Don’t ask me why I call it stupidity because the 2020 was junk and 2 year olds could have put it together better. So traded it within the year for a new 2020 Chevrolet 1500 RST Z71 5.3 which I loved initially. Started giving me engine problems at 10500 with a dropped lifter. Was OK until July this year with 17000 miles when engine problems again. First thing was defective injector and within couple days started acting the same and the found a small crack in the head. Within 2 weeks by this time and 19000 and although had extended warranty was about to go out of factory warranty started acting the same again. Went to traded it for a new 2023 Nissan Titan but because we moved and don’t need a truck anymore traded for a new 2023 Nissan Maxima SR and love this car. Workmanship seems much superior to the other and it is loaded and very fun to drive. Also it does not shut down at a traffic light. I agree with your assessment of these due to personal experience. Thanks

1) Avoid anything made by Stellantis. Any and all brands they produce are total junk. 2) Avoid Garbage Motors. They are called that for a reason.

I saw you on CBC talking about the Kia brand keeping their cars in parking lots and leaving there customers in a pickle waiting forever for a car. I enjoyed the article. Great video and commentary thanks 🙏

Great video Shari! I was so glad you talked about the different source that release data about cars. Particularly, JD Power! Aren't they owned by an automotive lobby group? Anyways, I was also very glad you mentioned Fiat. I thought for sure it would be #1. I was perplexed that it wasn't until you made the clarification. Thanks for all the great work you do!

Car reviews should include a study about how easy or hard and how affordable it is to find replacement parts. We heard the news about a Hyundai EV replacement battery costs $60,000. But also, car companies aren’t having replacement parts available long enough. Seems like almost everyone makes throwaway vehicles that will be lucky to last as long as their warranty.

CR isn't my fav either I follow J.D. Power for newly released cars and KBB resale values for my metric for older cars, but that's me. All of these are spot on. But no list of this nature should start without Land Rover at the very top. Jaguar is the best #2 bidder for Least Reliable Car Brand". Good, honest reportage.

What do you think of kia2023 seltos and sportage?

How the hell is it possible that cars in 2024 ARE STILL UNRELLIABLE! Where are the watchdogs

Can you please create a video comparing the Chevrolet Trax 2024 to its top competitor in the same price range?

We have a 2021 Mercedes GLA Turbo 1.3 Turbo petrol / gas engine and it’s done over 40,000 miles and not a problem from when we got it new. Maybe the cars sent to America are not made as well to match the unreliability of most of American models.

I am not surprised by the results. Thanks.

I am trying to get an affordable car, but also one with the features I want, so what do you think about the 2024 Hyundai Elantra Limited? I know depreciation goes down a lot, but I am a college student, lol. Toyota and Honda do not have the features I want, and they cost more to add them than the Hyundai. I'm so confused right now. Buying a car for the first time.

How about Chevrolet and Buick?

Thank you for your efforts to put a list of BAD car brands. Appreciated!

Very informative. How would you rate a used c300 like 2019? I am inciined to go for a used one, either CLA or C class. Any recommendations in which year is better Thank you

Mercedes Benz should be ashamed itself ripping off people with deep pocket rich people. How embarrassing they're the most luxurious expensive to repair and the most unreliable money pit. Also why Ford and Chrysler on the list? I thought US already fix this quality control issue? How embarrassing Ford and Chrysler also Dodge one of the most unreliable they should be ashamed. Japanese vehicles are the best most reliable Toyota and Honda and Subaru That's why Toyota and Honda are all over the world! Thank you for your report I really appreciate that!😊

What about Maserati and Range Rover?

At one time there were two Dodge/ Chrysler in my garage. After that there was a Toyota and a Honda...now there is just a Toyota.

Such a bogus list. No Korean or Japanese cars on this list. I'm calling BS We own a Volvo XC40 and we love it. So far so good anyway.

Honestly most newer cars these days are reliable af. Some more than others of course. But it's a big difference from what it used to be like 10+ years ago. Kind of like consoles/handhelds and PC. Companies stick to what works and build off similar architectures like ARM, or x86 for example. Before we got Sony doing Cell on pS3 and Xbox getting RRoD. But now theyre all x86 😅 Internet and AI helps a lot too

The thing with Ford is their electronics. The Aviator is a mechanically solid vehicle let down by the infotainment, and other electronics. I used to work for a company that transported cars to dealers for service. We rarely took Toyotas or Lexus for things other than maintenance. The worst, and most cars that we had to take to the dealer because they were un drivable were for Land Rover/Jaguar. For Ford it was stupid things, like the radio didn’t work, the automatic headlights, blown speaker. For GM, any SUV not being a gas Tahoe or Suburban (and their GMC equivalents) were just awful. GM 9 speed transmission were the worst. The early 3.0 duramax was trash also, but now they’re pretty awesome. The one car that never leaves dealer was the Infiniti QX30, which makes sense since it’s really a Mercedes. I’d buy a ford 2.7TT/coyote or GM 5.3 in a heartbeat. Mazda, Toyota, even a V6 or V8 Nissan never saw the dealers, I’d get one of those too. But I’d never get anything European. We weren’t contracted for Korean cars, so I really don’t have an opinion on those. They look really nice, that’s for sure.

What about Mazda?

I love my Dodge Durango GT it’s not perfect but it works for me.

I don't much care for reliability over a single year. Is there a list that is the historic average over the last 10 years?

None surprised me, except I wasn't expecting Mercedes so close to the top

Mercedes, Range Rover and Jeep. Pure garbage 🤮

Bummer I wanted a golf

I'm lucky with my Benz then.. didn't had problems yet!

I have a 2015 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid and have NEVER had any issues with it except for usual maintenance. I bought it after checking Consumer Reports rating this car VERY well in Reliability for that year. No regrets buying it.

Too bad you did not seperate Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid from ICE as the quality numbers are night and day between the two.;also the Hybrid make up only about 20% of sales.

Chevrolet not being on the list makes me question the validity of it. Just buy from a Japanese automaker.

Love that these BS american companies being called out for their trash.

Stellantis cannot manufacture anything that is reliable

8:45 missed opportunity to say "their reliability data is much more reliable" lol

XC40 rating is about 72/100, better than average

Not sure how you interpret your information about reliability…..you mention as one source ISeeCars, but I see them ranking as the most reliable, vehicles that you find awful!

I would not buy any German car anymore , specially VW! but I'm sure Land Rover should be in the list too!

Talk about Hondas lack of reliability over the last 5 to 10 years

What do you think about kia and hyundai?

Ford is probably the best of the domestics but if you want something to last, buy a Toyota or Honda

What about Nissan? Where do they land on the list?

I work in the car industry, and I have to say that Chrysler, Dodge,Jeep, are the biggest piles of crap. Everyone trades them in because of how truly horrible they are. Land Rover omg, nothing ever works with those things. Biggest headaches I've ever worked on, German cars like Mercedes and BMW are just not worth the money. Ford is the most reliable of the domestic cars for sure, but they are not great. Honestly Japanese cars are the best in terms of reliable, Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Subaru. Mitsubishi kind of fell of the radar for a long time now, they are like the Kia of Japanese cars now, and as for Nissan they are somewhere in the middle.

for Volvo, it seems if Chinese bought the brand, then the blame shall go to Chinese. However, most of other brands in the list was not Chinese.

My 2020 Escape Hybrid is now 4 years old and no problems. My wife's RAV 4 had 16 recalls in 6 years of ownership. On most Toyota had no fix. My previous 2002 Taurus had 1 recall and 1 TSB in 15 years of ownership. My 2017 Subaru Crosstrek had a very jerky CVT when cold and unsolvable rattle. My Pordche Boxster had a serious IMS bearing problem that cost thousands to fix.

How reliable is the GM Equinox mini suv ??

No jaguar/Land Rover?

Mercedes in Europe, especially in the Balkans, have a mythical status as a symbol of reliability, in fact all German brands have such a status, and when I show them the real picture, they don't believe it, and they invested a lot of money in their semi-finished products.

I don't care what manufacturer you have listed or not they all have problems! To much electronics and bad mechanical design.

Chevrolet should have been on the list.

How surprising that most cars on this list come from USA....

Expected to see Nissan on this list....

Hyundai reliability has been good over the past few years. Definitively not worst in reality.

Nowadays if you’re not buying a Japanese brand you’re taking a big chance with your money.

Anything stellantis

Why Alfa Romeo Not In This List

There is really no good reason that these car makers can't produce a solid product. Poor employee training and cost cutting are to blame here. The quality of the products are a direct result in poor employee work ethics and training. All these makers need to up their game.

👍

If these rankings are based on subscribers to Consumer Reports, my question is, why are subscribers of Consumer Reports buying these cars in the first place? They should know better!

Any most unreliable list that doesn’t include Nissan is suspect.

I drive a 2019 jetta, best car I've owned. Its been more reliable then my mazda 3, honda accord and kia rio!!

I hate that jeep is on this list I own a Jeep for the past 7 years and it's been pretty great for me

So they had enough data for Rivian, but not Range Rovers; The easiest cars to steal!!

JD power had Dodge at most reliable this year. 😂 😂

This video feels like a reason why a good majority of prefer Japanese or Korean made cars.

someone forgot Tesla

Land Rover anybody??? Not even on the list? What's up with that?

👍👍👍

FORD = Found On Road Dead and Dodge/Jeep are consistently the worst vehicles in the World! GM = Generally Mediocre and VW and Audi aren't too far behind in my past experiences either! I will be getting a Toyota Hybrid next year and we all know that Toyota Hybrids are the #1 vehicles in the world!

Japanese people are very perfectionists and they care about quality before anything else. And it shows in their cars. Im definitely buyung a japanese car in the future. I love mazda and honda designs ❤

volvo huh i thou theyare good

Need time stamps or just a list. I'm not going to sit through 9+ minutes for a list of 10 cars. that should take 20 seconds, max!

Is it me or Chevy wasn’t on this list or the other list

JD Power is not useful to me. I like CR for reliability.

Next video: "Most unreliable American car brands"

To make it simple all luxury brands are unreliable 😂🎉

You Will Be Better in a 1989 Honda Civic 😂

The statistics on reliability, durability and TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) clearly indicate that the worse car brands are the BEV ones (including Tesla), the Germans: Mercedes, VAG (Audi/VW), Stellantis, the Italians: Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, the commies Chinese acquired brands: Volvo, Jaguar, Land Rover, MG etc. Agree that Consumer Reports (despite the annual flops such as Top 10 sudden entrances/exits of Mini, BMW, Audi, Dodge, Lincoln, Kia, Hyundai etc.) on more than 5 years data is far, far better on reliability measurements than JD Power (that measures in fact the customer satisfaction during the first 3/6/9 months, not at all the reliability - that needs more years of observations).

Ford sucks... I'd buy a horse before buying a ford POS😂😂😂

Volvos are very reliable

The housing is horrible or none existent forcing people to move into their vehicles. Then the vehicles are unreliable though also the vehicles are attacked on the streets and during maintenance. If you are attracted to a living hell the United States and Canada is the place for you.
