  • Many SUV's are great vehicles for families, but I'm going to show you some SUVs that could cost you a lot of money in repairs, maintenance, or worse. These could also be lower in safety, and just plain old cost you your sanity. I'm going to tell you why these won't be reliable SUVs or they won't be good for your family. This is all from my perspective, and I'm sharing these opinions with you today.
    It's some of the worst SUVs to avoid today on ECCP! PS. you should join too get car advice and more:

I’m so nervous though. I’m getting cold feet I might chicken out and cancel the Rav-4 and order a Buick envision. It’s hard for me to do this change 😢 I’m 36 and I’ve been driving GM for 20 years.

    Power windows have no place on a Jeep Wrangler. I had them on a Chevy Cavalier. When they died, the garage replaced the unit with a stronger one that was more like the ones Subaru had in my well-built Forester. I made sure to get manual windows when I got my 2012 Wrangler. I’ve had repairs over the years and minor issues. I don’t take the roof off, so just adding some window insulation took care of the leak issue. It’s gotten me through bad winters here in Northeastern PA, and I can get away with minimal shoveling to clear my spot “just enough” to get in and out without leaving an inviting, perfectly clean box for ordinary 4-wheelers to steal while I’m away. 😎

    Car purchases are always an interesting thing. With many it feels like a "Your Mileage may Vary" type of thing (pun intended). I've had a variety of different brands and the two that were the biggest let downs on reliablilty were a Toyota Celica and a Mazda RX-8 (I know...lol). Admittedly I was not the first owner on the Celica so I don't know how the previous owner took care of it but I hadn't had it more than a few months before I was told the engine needed to be replaced. The RX-8 had the last iteration of the rotary and it wasn't well funded in it's development to begin with (had a 2nd gen RX-7 that did much better). Strangely my sister has an issue with her Lexus ES that her mechanic can't seem to figure out. My BMW 135i has done a few significant road trips and I really didn't have any major problems with that car. My F10 M5 had the HPFP issue a couple of times over my first couple of years of ownership but it did seem to lean more towards reliable considering what it was. Currently we have an Atlas and it seems to be doing pretty well over the last couple of years that we've had it. My in-laws have one and swore by it. I also did some research and some people recommended going with the VR6 engine over the 4 for reliability reasons. We went that direction and we haven't been dissapointed. It made a cross country drive trouble free and that includes dessert climate. I guess the answer is that it doesn't matter what vehicle you get it is best to do some research down to engine and transmission options (I personally don't want to touch a CVT with 10 foot pole or a Range Rover no matter how cool they look).

Because, for the love of bricks, every video that I watch about cars literally EVERY BRAND is unreliable except Toyota. Meanwhile, my VW has had minimal to no problems in it's of 11 years and it's still going strong. I'm genuinely confused.

      It's true about Toyota. Pretty much every Toyota model keeps on driving for many years, or for hundereds of thousands miles. If you check top 10 list of most reliable car brands, Toyota are allmost allways at the #1 or #2 spot, usually accompanied by Lexus (a Toyota owned brand) and Porche as the top 3 brands.

    If you notice the Buick enclave like some other GM products have a roof rack not designed right. Short of running straps through the interior of the car by closing doors on the straps. Reason is they make solid roof racks with no space under the rack itself. To me they are just for show and should never been made at all if they aren’t going to make them right.

    I can’t speak to the other cars but I can speak to the Encore. First of all the Encore GX (nor CX) is a totally different car from the Encore. If you’re talking about the Encore, yes it did have many issues from 2013 thru 2018 but quality definitely improved with the 2019 model according to Consumer reports and other sites. I have a 21 with 30k miles and have had 0 problems since new. I also know 3 other people with 2018’s and newer models. No problems with them either. I’m very pleased by the car and on the highway at 70 miles per hour I get over 36 mpg. Average mpg since new 32. Both of those calculations are computed by fillups and not the mpg gauge which tends to read about 2 mpg high.

I told her check engine was rarely a big deal, and to take it to Ford since it was under warranty. The wall of the #3 cylinder was too porous and was allowing coolant into the cylinder. It required a replacement long block to the tune of $7200.

    The only downside about watching channels like this is that after a few episodes you start to feel like every single car is going to sneak into your house at night and murder your family. Obviously that's an exaggerated take, but when you start saying stuff like "Is Lexus really worth the money!?!?!?!" Or "Is Kia more reliable Honda!?!?!?" All while, selling the exact same cars you're clickbaiting. Anyone can go to car complaints and read the worst of each model, but what this guy won't tell you, is that the trim matters, the year matters, the miles matter. The generalization of any brand can leave viewers feeling like you're in a movie with every single car manufacturer and car and you're not the main character, the cars are. All the plot armor goes to them, and you get nada

      Look into the high voltage cable issue. This feeds power to the rear electric motors. Toyota relocated its entrance to the rear motor, placing it right into road spray. If you live where they put salt on the road, do research.
      The real annoying thing is that Toyota refused to honor warranty repairs when the cable failed due to corrosion. They claimed a 3 year warranty when it is part of the hybrid system which has an 8 year warranty. $5-7000 repair and months wait for parts. Toyota has finally come around to repair under warranty.
      Well, even knowing this and living in the salt/rust belt I bought a 2022 hybrid. Love it.
