I work in a shop that's actually reputable and Toyota and Honda are what we all preach I drive a home 204k on it and only thing done to it are batteries, brakes, and oil changes
The cars he named are garbage, he could have expanded the list. All Mini's, VW's, Mazda's and Jeeps should be avoided. The Chevy Spark is actually a Daewoo, like the Aveo was and Daewoo's should be avoided also. He could have added all Nissan's with CVT transmissions and all Chrysler's with 2.7L engines, the 3.7L & 4.7L aren't that great either.

@@Fullsendfilosophy 310k on my 06 civic, still purrs like a kitten. I have just replaced minor stuff like the radio went out so I upgraded to a Bluetooth Kenwood and the airbag light comes on from time to time and I had an engine light which just turned out to be the O2 sensor upflow and downflow and just recently the muffler end of the exhaust fell off just leaving the resonator still intact and just the usual stuff battery, tires, brakes, oil change...also had to replace one of the rear wheel bearings, so I went ahead and did both in case the other side would start groaning too.

Nope! Buy Mazda. They make some of the most reliable cars. The CX9 in this video has a Ford motor. It is basically a rebadged Ford.
@@jdmguy44 Mazda's best days were when they worked closely with Ford. Since the separation, they've regressed. That may be coincidence, but whatever the reason, Mazdas are not as solid as they once were. I hope Scotty can support or refute my position.
@@c.j.rogers2422 I am guessing your a Ford fan, but it is a fact that the best Mazda's are the ones that do not use Ford parts. The worst Mazda's are the ones that do borrow parts from Ford. A good example is the euro spec mk2 Mazda 3 1.6 diesel - well known for engine problems. This engine was even used in PSA products! The euro spec mk1 Mazda 2 was simply a rebadged Fiesta, built (badly) by Ford in Spain. It was poor, and a Mazda in name only. Mazda (rather like Volvo) are doing great without Ford round their necks.
Scotty is 100% right. I've owned several other brands and all had major issues. Currently, my 4runner has 150k miles and not a thing has broken.
ME: car hunting on various apps
RUclips: Apple tells me you’re looking to buy a car
I have a 2014 Jeep Compass and I absolutely love it! It’s been 4 years and 60,000 miles later still runs great and good gas mileage

Hi Scotty!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experiences. You are a good man!
I can attest to the jeep compass, I bought a 2011 (new) and it has 150k miles on it. It still runs ok but there are tons of little things that have broken on the interior that shouldn't have. The biggest problem I had was some little module in the steering wheel went out that controls the headlights, blinkers, windshield wipers, horn, all the wheel buttons, etc. went out. A new module cost me over a grand and had to be "programmed" and installed by a dealer. It came as a surprise too when it failed and I cranked the car, at 5am when it was still dark out, and raining...
Jeep truly means
Just
Empty
Every
Pocket
My friend had a jeep.. he pretty much walked to work. Mechanics knew what was wrong with it and fixed it over and over , but it just the same thing kept breaking.
Buddy had a 106000 mile jeep Cherokee regular oils changes and services. Still runs like new
As a jeep owner I approve this message
I have a 2006 Grand Cherokee for 10 years, only now I had to replace the wheel bearing.
Dang straight I liked the classic jeeps made before 1995
This guy is awesome.... it's like Marty Mcfly and Doc Brown had a kid. I could watch him talk all day long!

Dodge Journey is trash, he's forgot
Bought my first/used car 1996 Honda Accord 🚗 2yrs ago still have it. It is a great car the ability to keep up with oil changes etc is key 🔑
I made the mistake of letting my wife buy a used VW & all I did was work on that P.O.S.
@@nwnative4139 2000 model had low miles but I replaced the entire cooling system & it still never ran without overheating. Pressure tested and everything else and it the engine was rebuilt as well but all it did was overheat. So I sold that car to a friend at work who put it in a demolition derby & put it out of its misery. My dad had a late model Rabbit from way back when & it ran like a champ.
Tell her you buy the groceries and I'll buy the cars LOL
Your biggest mistake wasn't the car. It was getting married in 1st place. MGTOW.
Why did you let your wife go out and buy such a car when you know the average woman doesn’t know anything about a vehicle?

Never had any Troubles with my 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee thats still going strong
Its a older model thats maybe why but still dont trust it after what i have personally seen.
My 2015 Jeep Patriot runs great!
You're a very lucky man. Should definitely play the lotto.
Cheap Jeep
Never buy a used car from someone online claiming it’s in storage & they’re overseas & it was their dead or ex husbands car...Plus they’re planning to ship it to you for free & if you don’t like it you can send it back 🤣😂🤣
1: have a good or ASE/AAA shop mechanic look it over. 2: NEVER pay cash, 💰💸. 3: research & know the model, brand, engine style etc. 4: if the engine or vehicle makes ANY noises or simple parts, doors-windows-AC dont function, DO NOT buy it.
Yup ,someone tried that scam on me on Craigslist , twice ,one with a truck ,one with a motorcycle.
@Vladimir_Bone Spur_tRump i have always wondered the same thing, so, i thought, the next time i buy from a private party, like at their house, i will bring my mechanic with me, always good to know a friendly small town shop mechanic, and the town has a population of around 11,000
Do more cars you shouldn't buy!!! Very interesting!!!
Erik Sojka used car salesmen. I agree. I need to know what cars yo steer my customers away from. Look for my comment for an in depth explanation. But I agree. More vids like this
After all the flooded out cars in H-town and many other cities/states, I'd avoid most newer, clean looking autos for a few years. Electrical issues later will let you know u chose wrong.
This is a damn good video, one of the best and most relevant of Scotty's I have ever seen!
So dont buy anything unless its a Honda Or Toyota.
Don’t buy any automatic car simple
I have not had the same experience with my CX-9. Mine has been very reliable. Now the CX-7 with the turbo engine has been very unreliable.

I have owned 2 jeep compass's I had a 2014 and drove it to 110k miles and now I have a 2016 jeep compass and have 40k miles on it right now I honestly have never had anything wrong other then regular maintenance and the usual things that go over time. I think they are pretty good 🤷♀️ but to each their own. Nice video.
I’m convinced, this is the ice king, before the mushroom war happened. Simon.
7:35 - you start talking about a Jeep Renegade. Less than 30 seconds after I heard that, I saw a yellow one just like it! It was parked at a Dollar Tree. After hearing what you said, maybe it wasn’t parked... maybe it was broken down. Anyhow, thanks for all your info. We love you and we love your videos!!!!!

@Jimmy Cass ive got 80k on my '13 optima hybrid with zero issues, only things ive had to replace are tires, fluids and wiper blades. the only thing thats ever irked me is sometimes the bluetooth is finicky. bought it for 12 grand and put 45 thousand miles on it in 2 years averaging 35 mpg, im pretty happy with it.
I hate the kia soul cuz it souless
The only problem my cousin's 2014 Kia Soul my cousin has is that it drains the batteries too quick

I have a 2016 Jeep Compass used and i have not had any issues runs great had it for 3 years already ... agree with the cheap parts but love my Jeep
my 08 compass was a steal because the transmission went out at about 150k miles and the guy couldn't afford repairs so he left it with the mechanic. they rebuilt the transmission and that's pretty much all I paid for. the only problem it has is a bad gas cap sensor
scottys perfect world is everyone driving 90s and early 2000s toyotas
than he will loss his job because they will not break at all😂🤣
Best car is my 2000 Toyota while my new Toyota is garbage. Quality went way down. Can't speak about other owners, just my own.
Don't buy Chrysler period.
You're forgetting Mitsubishi
I had a PT Cruiser 8 years and it never gave me an ounce of issues the entirety. I then went to Hyundai.
Gary James
We bought a 2009 pt cruiser been great and still running. Our town and country as well. 90 percent t of issues are due to the owners.
@Bulletman7 lol
Going Green the PT might still be running but you’re the laughing stock of your town
I love how this channel is 2M subscribers but still has a video quality of a 2008 youtube video.
Don't forget Chevy Cruze , everybody I know who has one , including myself , has had problems with it overheating at some point .
Scotty, you’re the man. Society needs education on cars to this extent and further! Thank you for your service to this world!
But, Chevy made a commercial saying they are more reliable than Toyota and Honda so it must be true.
They also have done a survey, but if you read the fine letters it says from 2015. Hmmm🤔.
Same with JD power awards lmfao
My 2016 Chevy Cruze with manual 6 speed has 40K and it is rock solid. Zero issues so far.
@@AntonioRey4 I'm glad to hear you are having good luck with your Cruze so far. I bought a new Chevy truck in 2003 and it was the biggest pos I ever spent money on, and my Corvette isn't a benchmark of outstanding quality either.
@@AntonioRey4 Talk to me about reliable and rock solid when its like my 94 Corolla, 386k and still a solid car with an AUTOMATIC to boot. Two things you fail to realize, first, 40k is nothing these days even for junk brands like Chevy watch when you hit 100k or close to it. Second, for every one Chevy Cruze owner who shares your same story, there are 150 Honda or Toyota owners of a comparable car who have that or better of a story. Consistency of quality control has long been a GM problem like many other manufacturers foreign and domestic.
the way you are educating buyers like me, Scotty, is awesome. Thank you!
I’m guessing the the 2.8K thumbs down are owners of Mini, VW, Chevy, Mazda, and Chrysler/Jeep cars.
I WISH YOU MADE THIS BEFORE I BOUGHT A USED 2014 MAZDA cx-9 WITH 100k MILES 3 DAYS AGO!!!!!!!!!!!!
jimini 14 he’s been saying this. Says the same thing every video. For years. Pay attention
jimini 14 woah dude, 100k miles. How much did you get it for?
Absolutly untrue. We have our second cx9. If oil is not changed on time it will ruin any engine. Cx9 models till 2014 have almost the same engine as ford edge ( slightly redesigned by mazda) and it is very reliable, easy will go above 200k, just change oil every 7500 miles using high quality full synthetic oil.
This is probably the only one i'm iffy on.. but maybe it's because I have a 2004 3 series with the 2.3.. maybe it's better? I'm at 192k miles and it runs good... the only major repair I did was replacing the rocker panels that rotted from the salt up here...
I have a 2008 Mazda CX7 Turbo. Truthfully it is decent automobile. but please change the oil on time with quality synthetic oil and use premium gas if it's turbo.
Lol...that Jeep compass is the worst vehicle I ever drove...... Horrible engine attatched to a bag of slush cvt transmision...;/
I am a jeep guy,as well as a honda guy,toyota fan,and a bmw fan and yes I admit the compass is the gayest jeep ever made and the worst one two even the renegade and my dads 95 nissan maxima can do more offroading than that thing and cost less
Should have got it with the 5 speed manual. Mine does great and I have the power I need when I need since I am in control of the transmission. As for off road the compass is not designed to be an "off road" vehicle but has the ability to go there when needed. Kind of like a Subaru can go off road but isn't meant to be an off road car. The 4 wheel drive system is best for slick or dangerous road conditions. Here in Montana we get lots if snow and ice and it drives thru that crap like it's no ones business.
Have an 09 compass. The struts fall apart and need replacing every two years. Engine is ok but needs about 10 more horsepower. Would I buy another- NOPE.
I don't know about off road, but Subaru Foresters are amazing in our snow belt winters when they start measuring snowfall in feet. Christmas of 2017 we had over 5 feet of snow over a period of a few days and our Forester never let me down, even when the snow emergency was declared and people were asked not to drive unless necessary, having a health care worker at home we had to go out in it and even though you could hear the snow hitting the bottom it kept going. Love our Forester.
5 speed manual drives great! Starts are cheap and started squeaking early on my 2011
Bought a 2017 jeep compass and its the best vehicle I have ever had. 55,000 miles and nothing wrong
Wait till you hit 100 to 150k miles then u will see
Nothing wrong so far . . . .
@@alvinsimba734 by that time I'll have my Cherokee
Who keeps a car until 150k anymore? Our 2011 Compass has 70k on it. No issues. I hate it though. I seriously do. Its under powered and small. Im 6'07" though. My brother is a Toyota guy. Blew the engine in a Tundra at only 40k miles. Suspension was done also. Shocks bone dry. See forums on that issue. Its common. Their new Camry is on its second front end and it just hit 36k miles. No warranty claims either. Tundra was filed as abuse. Camry filed as wearable parts. That also included a four wheek brake job since the rotors warped both times. Yeah, real nice. I wont ever own a Toyota. Ever.
@@camaro2k5 We bought a used 2004 Jeep Liberty last year. Wonderful car. Now, it has 284,000 miles and going strong.
Let's not buy anything but an old Toyota or Honda 🤷🏻♂️
Avoid the ford fiesta at all costs with very expensive transmission issues
Mine has 90k miles no problems hatchback 2016
@@cordovaholdings7269 just luck of the draw I guess they have been trying to slap ford with a lawsuit since 2015 my mom has one of these clunkers and it feels like it is turbocharged with the amount of lag and slippage in the transmission
@@gustavohonzofo that's just a feature of the hidden turbo system inside the engine bay
I think I saw somewhere that the manual transmission Fiesta is okay, but like you said, stay away from the automatic.
That was the twin clutch disc automatic. They had problems with these in the Focus, also. It is discontinued. It was weird, an automatic with a clutch. The computer operated the clutch. Problem was with the seal on the transmission, allowing oil to get on the clutches. Bad deal. There was some sort of payback, extended warranty, or something for some of these.

Central California towns ran Harley's on their police force for years. They hated bringing them to the shop every other week. So they went Yamaha and BMW. Never looked back.
Sorry Firetiger Rapala but it’s the other way around. I know lots of Harley owners that have well over 100k on their bikes and will tide cross country at a moments notice.
Check out videos here on you tube from SRK cycles. They sell all models of used bikes and the owner rides high mileage Harley’s for his personal bike.

None of the other manufacturers have issued that sort of edict to their franchises (that I'm aware of?).
It could be that Harley is looking to be #1 on customer service.
Or it could be that they break down that much more often.
I hear that they've come a long way on quality in the last 10 years especially, so this is not to say that they don't accumulate high mileage...but it usually can be measured in shop time.
well harley is starting to listen because the reliability has gone up since their sales have gone down drastically due to Japanese bikes being 10X more reliable and cheaper
@@lobo176 Exactly, I sold my 08 Harley Ultra CVO in 2016, it had 130,000 miles on it and ran great. I traded for a new 2016 CVO and have 40,000 miles on it, never been to the shop yet.
My wife and I have a Compass. It is a 2011 with 70k on it. Not one major issue. It has drums in the rear, which we just serviced since it is time to. One of the servos was leaking fluid, but it was super cheap to replace, and common on drum brakes. Dash isnt cracked at all, and it sits in the sun all day evety day. No window tint either. My brothers Tundra Platinum blew up with 40k miles on it. Not only did the engine blow going down the freeway, but the suspension was ruined also. Shocks and struts were so worn, the fluid had drained out. They chalked it up to abuse. Didnt cover it even though the trucks only modification was Flowmaster mufflers. Everything else was stock. Look up problems with Tundra. Suspensions being ate like candy. 15k dollar repair bill. They bought a new Camry instead, eating a heavy trade in with their dealer. 20k miles later it needed a front end build and four wheel brake job. Not covered because joints/front end parts are "wearable parts." They kept it after sinking two grand on a one year old car. Guess where it is? At the shop at 36k miles. Front end and brakes. Again. Same issue. Dodge sucks for sure but Jeep got it right. The Compass we have has been through he!!. I hate that thing so much, but hard to knock it.
I feel like after watch this dudes videos no car in the world should be owned
Lmao😆
Dude, I agree with you on most, except the Mazda. 180k Mazda3 here and it runs like a gem. The first gen Mazda CX-9, also a gem, based on friend’s and family reviews whom have owned these beasts. Calm down.
rs112490 yeah, I have no idea why he put Mazda on the list, other than because he had one customer have issues. Mazda is one of the highest reliability rated car brands out there, and parts are commonly inexpensive. I wonder if the costumer got a poorly maintained fleet vehicle or they didn’t keep regular repair schedule and went behind on matinence.
I’m sure that was the case with the parts. And same I got 190 on mine and have to do nothing to it...all the parts are as cheap as Honda’s and Toyota’s. But it was back when the cx9 had a v6 too
I been watching scotty for a while now... no fancy studio, no film crew, just him.... no nonsense great stuff!
Me: absolutely ZERO interest in cars won't be able to drive one for another 3 years.
Scotty Kilmer: 5 Used Cars You Should Never Buy
Me: immediately clicks on video.
Immediately find myself enjoying the video and being EXTREMELY engaged.
Am now here writing this comment.
WHY?
How many times did he say “Toyota or a Honda”
This is a great really really informative video!
phuk offndy Yep, all of his videos are.
Lol I knew Chrysler would be number one 😂😂
I thought the sebring was going to be #1
Scotty: "Now the *LAST* vehicle I advise you never to buy used, is the 2013 Jeep Compass...". It was not a countdown to number one. Just a list or, if it was a count up from number 1 then the top of the list was the 2014 Mini.
had 97 dodge neon 4 door with 166k on it
thing was a disaster ever since
had it for 20 yrs
junked it for a subie
@@ekop1778 Why do you speak in half sentences? Lmao
I had a 2005 Dodge Magnum for 13 years. I’m convinced it only lasted that long because I had the engine replaced with a rebuilt on after the dealership refused to honor their warranty for the well known 2.7L engine sludge problem. In the end it was getting too expensive to keep replacing parts for the menagerie of front end suspension issues.
I totally agree with every choice on this list. I used to be a dealership lot manager, and we had to run the used cars every morning, and drive them and report issues with them, and all of these had the same notorious problems
My dad had the Mazda CX-9 and put over 200,000 miles and just sold it and it was still in great condition.
I own a 1988 Jeep Cherokee! It's a beast. 4.0 Liter 6 Cylinder
@@kevinzetino1832 Funny thing about this is, I just junked it. The engine overheated twice since I posted this comment.
Shocked that the PT Cruiser didn't make this list.
I’m looking to buy a used car and after watching over a dozen of Scotty’s videos I have no idea what to do. Thanks.
Buy a toyota!
Augustine Kar I’m pulling my hair out! He made a video about why Toyota’s are breaking down! Thanks for the input.
What’s the point of having hair when they’re pushed that far back.
The moment you realize your car is on the list 😟😟😞
Which one do you have? Lol
Oh lemme guess. You got a compass
Wow, congrats all the way champ!
I know how it must feel to be the one of a kind lucky owner
- picking up the hat
08 Compass here with 400k +
@Nathan LaRiviere sorry to disappoint but I wasn't sarcastic. I'm genuinely happy for you brotha! ;)
Toyota is sponsored by Scotty.
Do you mean Scotty is sponsored by Toyota ?
Tan Pham + 😂
Lol nah, Honda’s and Toyota’s are just the best cars overall
278k miles on my truck and it sounds smoother than newer trucks. I can't complain about toyota
@@davidkaminski615 fortunate for you; I have a 2003 Camry with the dreaded head bolt stripping issue that has TONS of complaints about although it isn't " recognized " as recall issue by Toyota, they literally have a FIX for it; all at OWNERS cost… and ZERO $ assistance for someone like me who bought it from a Toyota dealer AND bought extended warranties on this used vehicle AND had ALL services done at the dealership - GAINESVILLE< FL.
This was so entertaining I forgot why I was watching it lmfao
I have a 2011 Mini Cooper S. Never left the shop paying less than $1000. But I love the thing so much and buying OEM parts saves a lot of money.
Chevy Blazer was the worse vehicle I owned.
So many electrical problems on those things.
the simplest issues become tragic with those junky blazers
The Chevy Cruze is a nightmare.
So is my ford..piece of junk
No problems with my wife's 2018 Toyota Camry...or the 2017 Camry befoe that. Or the 2013 Toyota Rav 4, or the 2005 Toyota Tacoma.
This is good to know when my 20 year old Toyota dies in another 20 years and I need a replacement!
lol
Your 20 year old Toyota is almost certainly a death trap and would drive about as good as a fridge on wheels.
Brian Nopee not at all. My 2000 avalon xls v6 still drives like a dream!
Robin D., Old Toyota Corollas have very poor crash safety ratings and they drive poorly compared to European cars such as the Ford Focus and the Opel Astra. In fact, Australia's NRMA Open Road publication described Toyota Corollas as being like white goods (fridges, washing machines, etc) on wheels. My step son had a 2002 Corolla and I can confirm that this is true. Many Japanese and Korean hatches and sedans are like this.
Three years ago we drove our Compass on a 5,000 mile road trip down Route 66. One year later we drove from our home in Ohio to Phoenix and back. We now have over 175k miles on it with zero problems.
This man has the greatest vibe I’ve ever seen
No1 should be anything that was previously a RENTAL.
Absolutely right! Be especially careful if buying from Carmax, since they purchase many rentals from Enterprise, Hertz, Avis, etc.
Yup
One good thing about buying a rental is you have service records. The bad thing is that some 22 year old kid probably beat the crap out of it.
YES! That and old undercover cop cars. Those things are taking a beating.
or an uber...
Chevy spark is basically A Rebadged Daewoo
The aveo is too
@@rangerrick1859 And Cruze
Are you saying this is another poorly made S. KOREAN car?
@vitriol or debate It is a daewoo, It says GM DAEWOO under the hood of the Aveo, i guess you've never touched one.
@vitriol or debate they don't sell it in your country, then why did you correct me if you were not sure? My aunt owned a Daewoo, the only Daewoo I've ever seen. It looked kind of like a Chevrolet Aveo but it said Daewoo.
Scotty's high pitch raspy voice might make him a rock star.
At 2 million views I I would have to say that this guy is probably the top RUclips mechanic.
My parents own a 2011 Chevy Traverse that they bought used from a dealer a little over 2 years ago. Since then they have gone through 2 blown engines and are currently on the 3rd engine and they told me the other day it started knocking. My dad is a mechanic so he knows how to treat cars properly and maintain them. Those traverses are pieces of junk, stay away.
I know someone with the same issue. A Traverse with a blown engine. I heard there was a class action lawsuit or recall or something where you can get a replacement for free? Or very little cost from the dealer. Worth researching.
*Dont go buyin rusty bois*
I love my rusty boi, brand new sub frame n all....
"Rattle bucket" describes the 3 Corollas and the Hyundai that I have driven as rentals while my car was in the shop. I don't like being on the freeway feeling like my car is going to wiggle apart.
I have a 2012 mini and I haven’t had any issues with it. Got it with 34000 miles and now it’s over 81000. I think a lot of the choice in what used car you want to buy will depend on the miles and how the other owner/owners took care of it. Any used car can be good or junk... even Honda’s or Toyota’s .
