For quality it is really hard to go wrong with the Japanese brands listed here. When I replaced my short-lived Santa Fe I went with Mazda CX5 because of availability and price. I've also owned Honda and Toyota and they were fantastic also.
Tab 5 got alot of reliability problems. Toyata fake reliability is because it's last to introduce new features. This behind and boring cheap interiors. Expensive as well.
I really appreciate your research and knowledge. I’m wanting to go back to sales after moving 2 years ago but though Honda is my brand, where I’m hoping to move to the dealership isn’t well respected and contemplating other brands. Really surprised with how quickly Mazda has increased their “A” game
The real surprise is that the Top 3 very reliable Mazda (at least for the last few years) was fakely moved out of the podium to make place for Mini/BMW clunkers.
Going into my second year with my 2019 Toyota SE & love it, especially after owning two Ford Explorers, they got very expensive after 100,000 miles & the repairs were constant. Just wish I would have woke up sooner.
My list: 1. Lexus 2. Toyota 3. Honda 4. Mazda 5. Acura In our stable we have 2 Hondas, 1 Lexus. We traded 3 Mazdas for them. Mini doesn't belong anywhere near the top 5, IMHO. I'd be a bit queasy placing any BMW product near the top 10. No matter what, it seems that almost any repair at BMW is over $1000 for a long, long time. Personally, l wouldn't buy an out of warranty Bimmer for anything! And I was the guy who decided trade values at a dealership. Those 5 above get the best resale values historically.
I always like your reviews. It is good to use more than one source of information instead of just relying on CR. Using CarEdge and I See Cars balanced out the questionable reviews from CR. I agree mostly with the top 10, but not the European cars. They are horrible money pits.
Thank you so very much for all you have taught us. We began this journey after my husband had MAJOR surgery in July, a 5 cabbage bypass! it became clear to us two RVers in our seventies we needed to down grade and sell our RV. But what to buy? I was attracted to crossovers but did not even know the difference between a crossover and a SUV. I turned to youtube and discovered you. The research was a 5 month project wanting to make the once in a lifetime best purchase. I sit now recovering from surgery my husband pulling into our driveway with our 2024 LexusRX450h+ plug-in! After coming to this conclusion you can only imagine the reassurance when our most respected youtube adviser ranked it number! Question. A Canadian or English youtube lady said Plug in crossover with a 120 outlet can be used without the motor on for heat or air conditioning when camping. Please explain
Mazda uses a tire pressure monitoring system with no batteries in the wheels to eventually fail. Subarus have new spark plugs recommended every 30 thousand miles.
Unfortunately Lexus is very expensive to repair with certain things that you can’t have Toyota do or a local mechanic. I’m learning this the hard way now sigh.
I noticed the Subaru Forrester reliability is superior to the Outback(CR reliability).. Both use the 2.5L FB25 engine as standard, but only the Outback has the turbo option. It seems to me the turbo drags down the Outback reliability? Also the Forrester still uses a more reliable previous generation entertainment system instead of the more buggy upgrade in the Outback
People complain they have to spend X amount of dollars to fix their car but don’t bat an eye when they spend 5 figures on a yearly vacation trip. I know someone who does this and drives around in Toronto in a $80k Ford F150 with bald tires during winter because they don’t want to spend money on tires.
It seems Acura is 3rd and Honda 4th, and behind Toyota and Lexus is fair, but Honda/ Acura more fun to drive which affects reliability as they are pushed more
Subaru? Two of my friends had issues with these brands. One had major engine failure in less than 100k, Subaru dealer diagnosed, recommended new engine and the other friend's Forestor had multiple issues. Now, they switched to Honda and Toyota.
Excellent. Consumer Reports does not factor in maintenance costs with its rankings. BMW and Mini are not a deal if you consider long-term maintenance costs. Not much to say about Hyundai and Kia either. Their ICE engine reliability is highly questionable. Go with Lexus, Toyota, Acura, Honda and Mazda to be safe.
67k is not really much especially if you are CA resident. Have you seen the 2.0 and 2.4L engine seizure issues by KIa and Hyundai? Hope you don't encounter these, and hopefully your Sorrento is a V6!
Where Consumer Reports is obviously faking the results: 1: it is illogical Mazda's fall (for so many years in Top 3, especially thanks to the amazingly efficient Skyactiv G engines, now with the X range) to the 6th place, especially below the Mini clunkers (that do not belong to the Top 10 at all); 2: the same Consumer Reports that placed BMW in the 3rd position last year now it's (falsely again) placing Bring My Wallet to #9. In fact BMW should be out of Top 10. And the CR does the same "mistake" yearly. Some "mistakes" in the previous years: Buick, RAM, Dodge, Lincoln, Infinity, Audi, Kia (all these clunkers entered suddenly the Top 10 in the last 4 years, but later they have exited it - just like BMW and Mini will do); 3: the same CR that made Suzuki exit the USA market with a fake review on Suzuki Jimny (Samurai) is taking advantage of the trust of over 330'000 drivers (giving the correct facts on their cars). If the things were done professionally, today the USA drivers would benefit of some exceptional cars such as the Suzuki Jimny or the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV etc. That's why I like that the CR surveys are being weighted against other cars statistics in such videos. The fair Top 10 would be then: Lexus Toyota Mazda Acura Honda Subaru Suzuki Mitsubishi Nissan (they got rid of Renault, CVT issues years ago) Porsche
Tesla is just an electric clunker, though a pioneer for BEV. Its lack of reliability and the expensive repairs are legendary. Expensive (especially when you factor in the cost of the replacement battery), unreliable, polluting (even before considering the mining for battery's raw materials), very dangerous (even more when burning), impractical, controllable by the "elites" etc. A good tool for the Chinese commies.
@@codincoman9019 Until Mazda can make reliable hybrids, they will likely remain where they're at or lower because many of their offerings aren't great when it comes to fuel economy.
Mazda engines are extremely economical, thus the alliance with Toyota. I have a Miata ND2 RF Top Revolution that has amazing mpg for a sport car. Btw, they already got the hybrid system from Toyota on some cars.
Great great car bands over the years have improved their prices and service on maintenance only services cause you have to do that. If your cars are actually reliable, so brake pads become cheaper or changes become cheaper tires become cheaper they were way too expensive back in the day relatively speaking, so that’s a queue to look for
I'm looking at getting a new 2024 Hyundai Sonata. I've known many people to find this brand reliable, especially with their 10 year/100,000 mile warranty. Have their vehicles improved over the years as a whole?
I've had a 2005 TSX for 19 yrs. now. Only major repair was a new alternator about a year ago. Otherwise just maintenance. Owned an Accord for 10 yrs. before that and nothing major. I'm looking at Lexus hybrid NX or UX or maybe Venza for next car within 6 months or so.
Mitsubishi Outlander brand SUV's that were made ( every nuts and bolts, electronics, body panels etc) entirely in Japan is a shoe in vehicles that will last 300,000 ++ miles.
Never had any problems with bmws and Kia. My brothers 22 430gc he already put 80k miles never had any problem and my moms telluride 60k no problem just a recall campaign. Meanwhile my 22 rx350 ended up lemon at 3k miles due to a blow motor? Problem.
I let my subscription to Consumer Reports lapse a few months ago because of their stellar rating of the Mini. I lost all confidence in the magazine and their integrity. They're still hounding me to renew. Bye, Bye CR.
I'm surprised none of these list are electric vehicles So is combustion engine more reliable than electric? Tesla is not on the list means they're not reliable?
I always wanted a MINI but always read how unreliable they are. It's because of Consumer Reports ratings that I decided to take a chance and buy one. I'm happy I did. I joined a Facebook MINI group, and they will be the first to tell you the first 2 generations of MINI's where as unreliable as people said they where. According to them you should only purchase one 2015 or newer. That's when BMW put their on engines and transmissions in them. Despite what Car Help Corner is saying even the first few years of the third generation model change have average or above average reliability. Which makes me feel the fourth generation is not going to have all the problems Car Help Corner is expecting. Only time will tell.
Hope you have money set aside later on when your turbo fails! My friend owns a 2007 Mini with a supercharger. His supercharger failed a little over 100k miles. Minis are cool little cars, but like BMWs, they can prove a bit costly when compared to Mazda, Toyota and Honda
@@carhelpcorner totally! I was just referring to the Crown - there have been times when you use it on the thumbnail and don't mention it (The Toyota Crown) in the same video 😄
You recommend these rankings by CR, but in the video, you keep emphasizing how CR's method is questionable. So, what is it? Is this your recommendation ranking, or are you just reported CR's ranking paired with your opinion of them?
If any one of the cars available is more reliable, why these many models every year and why new features added every year... These car's sales market confuse consumers...
I think the people who want a bmw or a porsche over a lexus aren't worry about the maintenace fee but still want that reliability... Definitely the bmw and porsche are more sports luxury than just luxury from lexus so that's kind of misleading.
Tiny engines, with turbo chargers and direct injection --- good luck with those cars. Toyota, most likely, is in reality the line of cars which make it to the finish line of your ownership, and a couple more owners without major problems. Let's include Lexus. Porsche is the best luxury brand, as it still has quality built in, unlike the changes seen in other German makes over time. How long will most CVT transmissions last?
Mini and Subaru above Kia is a bit suspect. Especially when Consumer Reports is an American trash source which is not really applicable in markets outside of North America.
dont get a hyundai or a kia, with all the thefts going on and the jacked up insurance rate (if you can even get one to insure you) any cost savings from kia are gone.
Hi Shari, I only agree with Toyota, Mazda, Subaru and Porsche on this list. Every other brand mentioned in this video I disagree. Why is Acura and Mini are still in business? Disastrous over priced marketing failed brands.
I don’t get how you rank Mini so high on this list when practically everything you ever say about just about any model they produce, including the ones you mentioned here, leave so much to be desired. No matter how you tried to dress it up, it doesn’t make sense.
Are Subaru’s as bad as I’m hearing all over the internet? This guy says the exact opposite of what I’m hearing. Leaky gaskets, transmission problems, it makes me wonder why so many people own them. Even people admitting at 100 to 120k miles there’s gonna be expensive repairs needed but they admit they’d still stay with Subaru. I want to get one but why have the headache…. Why??
Mini does not belong on this list nor does BMW. Otherwise the list is filled with the usual suspects. If you need an ordinary daily driver, buy Japanese (except Nissan) and if you can't go to the Koreans instead.
The Korean clunkers have been developed with the help of the German engineers (mainly from Bring My Wallet), thus they have a better quality/price ratio than the German clunkers, but they do not belong to the Top 10 reliability (moreover, Mitsubishi and Suzuki are better).
@@codincoman9019 Suzuki isn't sold here in the US. Mitsubishi's dealership network and resale value are awful compared to most other brands, so neither is a viable option here for most consumers state side.
Toyota doesn't put the cruise control on the steering wheel where it should be. The raison d'etre of an automobile is to move under its own power, and the cruise control attaches that very conveniently to a computer. That is a primary function (unlike "sound system" or "A/C" or "seat massage"). Lexus has not changed the design of putting an unnecessarily complicated "stalk" as some misshapen appendage to the steering wheel since the early 1990's!! Mustang in the 1980's put their cruise control where it belongs, on the face of the wheel under your thumb, with a simple "set" "+" "-" "res", deactivated by the brake. I will not buy a car that doesn't have cruise control on the face of the wheel.

Can’t agree more. I never had issues with my Mazda, Subaru and Lexus. Each one has their own unique known features with great reliability.
Subaru can have timing belt chain guide issues, be warned

Any reliability list that has Kia on it automatically goes in the garbage.
Kia? I thought Kia was bad, or is that just the Soul?
Getting away from Ford was the best thing Mazda ever did
My Volvo is the best.
Facts
DON'T buy a KIA! Trying to get someone to unsure my soul has been a nightmare and it's $300 per month with no accents on my record.
Subaru and Mini over Mazda? Thats a joke. BMW and Porsche on the list? no way 🤣
Subaru is getting better because they finally ditched the EJ motors. 😂
The Japanese makes the best cars. That's just fact.
Japanese cars! No brainer.
That list is so flawed! how could you rate a car company based on only two of its models and the others the entire range and call it fair mini is up money Pitt just bmw! Kia don’t belong nowhere in your top 10
😂😂😂...annnndd this list is proven to not be worth crap. Toyota and Honda are providing to keep breaking down and turned to crap. Bmw is proving to keep being more reliable....😂😂😂
So...nothing from the big three. They should do better, a lot better.
Consumer Reports must be joking.
I will not see it because I know the guy prays for toyota. Good car brand but dated and has know drive feelings
