WORST CARS Made By Every Car Brand || Don't Waste Your Money On These Cars! 

AKIO Toyoda was right except on 1 aspect, if the technology isn't viable today, doesn't mean you have to dismiss it. Because, you will fall behind and have a lot harder time catching up. I favor PHEVs, but battery technology is moving fast. CATL is already developing a Sodium based battery, which might be the answer.

Mazda is totally against electric vehicles

they need to make lot more PHV.

PHEVs are a different animal than hybrids... they are basically an EV intersected with a gas engine and thus, very complex and expensive to build... that is why Toyota's production of PHEVs is slow and it takes a very long time to get them... plus, the high consumer costs is prohibitive to the average auto consumer as is EVs... that being said, with the advancement of battery technology, there will probably be some major breakthroughs for the average consumer.@@dwadd7528

Well... if your knowledge and business acuity of the auto industry exceeds that of Toyota's I would certainly like to see your bona fides... you try some things, you fail at some, and you win some... Toyota has the ability and skills to overcome its losses but makes up for them with its stupendous and highly profitable wins... say compared to GM and Ford.@@bmw803

Those names are all bad... but the majority of the public has been fooled...

Part 2 maybe?

@@feleciawallace8420 - Those names aren't *all bad*, it depends on the model. Even those brands have some models that are more or less reliable than others that they make, and not everyone wants to drive a Toyota, so it'd still be handy to know which models from those marques are especially troublesome.

The brands you named are all infamous for being money-pits as they age. IMHO, unless you literally have money to burn avoid these overpriced brands.

I can do a part 2 for luxury brands 👍

nicely stated

He doesn't offer any data to support his list, a lot of these vehicles aren't bad at all, suggesting to people that a car is the worst from a brand because you believe they should buy the same type of car from another brand doesn't make it a bad car.

@@aldasilva2239 He also misses the point most people buy electric vehicles and it's not if it's the fastest car out they buy it for either they are against fossel fuels and think they are going to save the planet or they want to just save money on gas in the long run.

Excellent video. Thank you

Well said. Basically, if a car meets a buyer's needs and expectations, that's all that counts to him. The buyer is making the car payment, not anyone else.

joesphbrian : NOTHING IS MADE TO LAST NOWADAYS ! This the manufactures way to keep you coming back sooner than you want too.

In my area, practically every other cop car is a explorer police issue. I realize but they seem to have used them a lot.

Indeed. I one owned a 1991 S-10 Blazer 4-dr and I loved it. That thing was solid. Cars nowadays... they make me want to buy an old car again. lol

My 2000 Explorer just gave out, but my wife’s 1999 Explorer is still going strong.

Fix It Again, Tony

Also the Porche Cayenne is a VolksWagen T-ROC... /facepalm

@@Niphrentil That’s why it’s Unreliable

He’s lying about his so called idata. Nothing in the news about K5 , so far very popular on the road and you don’t even hear about recall

@@papaagidi2838 Just clickbait…

Exactly my point. The K5 is just beautiful with zero issues so far

K5 also has AWD, Accord doesn’t.

To each his or her own…

Thank you for saying that. I currently own a k-5 with 20,000 miles and have zero issues or complaints. And as for the whole “dont sell well” he needs to look around as they are everywhere where I live.

@@seancatoe1304 vs the camry or accord it might as well not exist.

​@@sprockkets👍The Kia K5 is garbage compared to the Camry and Accord.

@@charlesjackson1700 shrug, I don't like either of them. If I needed a car I'd get an ioniq 6.

Well atleast you dont get the indian line up of kias and their GT lines.

They are both new give it a few years

Months

@@gamingwithzan4654 that’s what they said about my Beetle but still only normal maintenance , it is a great car , love my Renegade too , my Jeep Liberty had a ton of miles , never an issue ever ❤️

@@Rnjeepshoelver Just enjoy the cars, and if they blow-up, get something different. People worry about things which never happen. What did happen however is the that the Renegade / FIAT 500X got axed by Stellanis - however that is spelled. In regard to the Beetle, it has so much personality, it is all about the uniqueness.

@@lorenschwiderski I feel the same you can get a lemon in any vehicle , my Beetle and Renegade are both fun for me to drive .. thanks so much ❤️

I could do that 👍

Also full-size cars best reliable ones an unreliable ones thinking of getting one as a first car

@@carhelpcorner do it man @

Thank you!

New cars SHOULD be trouble free. The real test is that 8-10 year mark. The K5 is an excellent vehicle but I still don't trust Hyundai Corp. so I bought a Camry.

@@0HOON0You really can’t go wrong with any of the new Kia/Hyundai vehicles. Not to mention the warranty of 5 yr/60,000 mi basic, 10 yr/100,000 mi powertrain. These vehicles are reliable.

He may regret buying the cheapest ev come trade in time 😬

I actually kind of liked the MX30, its more of a plugin hybrid than an EV and i dont think mazda really wanted to make it. That being said i have it over the hideous EVs from Subaru and KIA lol. But either way ill take my turbo 3

Exactly

Honda is mostly good quality. Reliable with fantastic build quality

You're right - Honda is doing a "good" job. Unfortunately, from someone who was around from when the first Honda cars were introduced in the U.S., Honda hasn't been doing a GREAT job like they were in the late '70s & well into the '80s. Cars from that era were built with jewel-like quality, which then started a long, slow decline when Honda started their Acura line. Honda could do so much better.

Agree with this statement. Passport is much better than the CR-V for the class that does not need 3 rows, but wants or needs the trail capable SUV.

hello77779....I purchased eight GM vehicles in my lifetime and only one caused me problems. You are just misinformed and should give GM w try.

@gtpcruiser02 I've had four gm vehicles and 3 of the 4 have been nothing but headaches. It's a shame so many (all) materials are wasted in the production of gm vehicles.

​@gtpcruiser02 Remember there is LOTS of bias and regurgitation in the automotive media against GM. They never talk about the VOLT and some pickup trucks that clocked a million miles without problems.

You obviously never drove or owned a VOLT, BOLT and some pickups that clocked over a million miles. Yes, GM made lots of shit, but there is lots of bias against GM based on opinions. My neighbor has a 2014 Cruze TD ( Turbo Diesel) and has close to 300,000 miles. No issues.

@@Chet_24 really? so you've owned 4 GM products and 3 were bad huh? i guess the Millions of people who buy Chevys, Buicks, Caddys, GMCs are all going to go broke after spending all their money on car repairs huh? wonder why i constantly see all kinds of GM products from the 90s and early 2000s still on the roads today? I also wonder why every RAV4 I see thats over 10 years old has rusted out wheels and undercarriages unless they never see snow?

The Kia K5 is 👎🤮🤮🤮🤮

@@charlesjackson1700Great argument. Very convincing points there!

Take a look at the site " Death Rate in Cars " and see which manufactures consistently place at or near the bottom of the list.

I Would trade my 2014 Genesis Coupe 3.8 with 67k miles for a K5 because of the Hatchback trunk alone.

Thank you!

"quite good" there is literally nothing in his content that isn't copy/pasted from another source and clearly offers ZERO first-hand experience. let's play it safe and kiss Toyotas boring, "everything feels like a Corolla" raer end!!

​@@nickdebenedetto2267Opinions very.

They have discontinued the Renegade / FIAT 500X. Hope you got your price when selling.

What an exciting story...zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Because in us no one buys them, only suv is in demand For some reason , Americans want the biggest and most useless vehicle to drive to Walmart

Low profit potential leading to no advertising leading to a slow decline in sales.

@@nlpnt Just goes to show that the USA is not the land of choice it used to be.

They are the worst small cars. also, don't forget the Nissan versa

My Honda Fit has been incredible!! It’s a 2009 and people still think it’s new! Literally 0 problems with the car. Only normal maintenance issues. It’s been incredible and is so versatile! I highly recommend the Honda Fit! :)

Yeah, but he's clear that the Passport is not a bad vehicle by any means. It seems more suited for single people who go one excursions with their friends

Yea its just dated its still on the pilot platform from like 2016 With the new pilot platform im sure the passport will become a top contender again

The current Passport is great, but Honda should be making some nice updates to it next year.

I think video is inaptly titled. Some vehicles are great for specific needs. The Passport is a great choice or adventures & small family needs. More cargo room without the need for a third row, totally makes sense. It's one of the most practical vehicles on this list. The screen is integrated into the dash which is preferable to having a screen popping up from the dash obstructing your view. Sure it'd be nice to have a hybrid option, but their V6 engine is proven to be pretty rock solid.

I went from the 22 crv to the 23 passport, and I gotta say I really enjoy it. While it’s older technology, it’s safe and reliable. Also for it being as heavy as it is, the 0-60 is not bad at all. Roomy and comfortable.

The Taos had just come out when I got my Tiguan, it is an absolute joke. I’ve gotten over 30 mpg on a road trip in my Tiguan loaded up with people, luggage and bikes on the back. The interior of the Taos is terrible on top of having a smaller, less powerful engine than the Golf it replaced.

So sorry that happened to you !

@@Rnjeepshoelver Thanks so much! I am hearing a lot of horror stories of dealerships holding onto cars that need warranty repair for 4-6 weeks so I'm not optimistic. It's been two weeks and Powertrain hasn't even approved the repair yet. I may not see the car again until January/24.

@@kdburns that so sucks , yikes , so sorry

They all blow up, but they look good when doing it😮

Almost bought a Renegade last week but didn't. My Patriot is not much better 😮

Jeep and Chrysler products are sub par. Have been for 40+ years. Have owned both and as they say “Never Again “

I loooove my 2023 Renegade Trailhawk previously I had a Jeep Liberty and never had an issue with it !

@@Rnjeepshoelver They have discontinued the Renegade / FIAT 500X. A lot of discontinued models these days. I just wonder how many car companies will survive???

@@lorenschwiderski I know it is very strange !

I'd rather have the regular 8 speed automatic transmission though.

Apples and oranges

EXACTLY. Those engines are blowing head gaskets like crazy, which is pretty un-Honda like.

Really good points. Quite frankly, I believe that the Toyota/Subaru EVs were built precisely for the reason this video's author stated - stop gap. Or, to translate into political/marketing reasons, to get the Feds off their back, and to placate the envirowackos in the marketplace. Toyota is not embracing the current EV insanity (good for them), and they'll focus upon their hybrid offerings, which are the best in the business.

Maybe they're trying to capitalize on the fact that the BOLT EUV is being updated and no available for at least a year. My local Chevy STEALER has been getting between 3-5 EUVs per week since last year. Very good seller.

@@bmw803 Yes, I'm still considering the Bolt EUV, with rebates and ex-military discount, I can get one new including taxes, all in for $36,000 CAD ($26,000 USD)

I have a 2014 Nissan Altima, no problems ,great gas mileage. It's one of the BEST cars I have ever owned, trouble free ! I guess this guy's name is really Miss Information.

yes at 100k plus ,three times what i paid for my house ?

Ford has the Expedition Max. But yeah, most people who need “hauling” are going for crew cab pickups.

Packaging efficiency > overall size. I've hauled a standard-size refrigerator in a Honda Fit. By comparison the Suburban's a space-utilization disaster - open the hatch and the load floor is actually raised above it, the ladder frame and driven rear axle eat space.

@@nlpnt You know you’re not supposed to lay fridges on their sides, right?

@@BillLaBrie This was an old one that was going to the junkyard. The new one was smaller and its' instruction book said not to turn it on for two hours after transporting it lying on the side.

I have a 2016 no problems. Have a buddy who bought a 2021 brand new and it has had 3 issues before it had 1000 miles on it. All electric problems.

why the F would you want to compare a Toyota to a Lexus?????!!!!! do you not realize that they are the same company with the same engineers, same manufacturing philosophies, using the same technology, same methodologies! i'll answer your inquiry right here and now.... the Lexus is significantly more expensive than the Toyota as it has more features/luxury, otherwise they are very similar! hahahaha

The dodge journey was also super cheap I’m pretty sure the highest trim was like $29,000-$32,000

The Soul isn't the best but at least it's affordable.

My 2019 soul is great

@@carhelpcorner Does anyone visit the Death Rate in Cars before buying a vehicle???

I think that there are plenty of EV options that fit a variety of needs. The reason the Mazda MX-30 had a limited release in the U.S, is because of how small the market is. The car is great for a European city dweller, where it was first introduced. The Solterra is not a great EV, but it’s a step in the right direction. In the U.S we have so many other EV options, with a standard range of 240-300+ miles, which is more than enough for daily usage. In general, EVs have already proven to be generally more reliable than gas counterparts. Of course however, reliability also depends on the brand itself. And yes, EVs are expensive! However, that number is going down very fast. The average transaction price of a new EV is down nearly $15,000 since September 2022, dropping from $65,295 to $50,683. We are still in the early stages, which is why EV purchases are incentivized, to grow interest and potential. Mainstream EVs have only been out for about 15 or so years. We have already seen lots of innovation in that short timeframe, and we will continue to see that. I am remaining optimistic, and I hope you can too.

I looked at a used Camry, and a used Niro EV. The Niro was only $9k more, while the Camry was 8 years old, 150k miles on it. Now I save $100 a month on gas, and will save more if it goes way up like it did in 2022. Plus it's waaaay more fun to drive. To each their own. My power company also will offer 6.75 cents charging at off peak, and all I have to do to get it is install a ChargePoint Flex. When that happens, my costs will be cut in half vs normal rates.

@@rylans.5365 if EVs are so great, why are toyota and mazda giving up on making them?

Yep. I have a 2016 with 280k miles - no issues

Yeah this list is horrible.

I think the 2020 or 2021 they started going down hill. My friend bought a brand new 2021 and has had 3 electric issues before it hit 1000 miles. I have had less issues with my 2016. It has 110,000 miles nothing crazy but better than the new ones.

I have a 2016 explorer that just hit 280k miles. No issues. It won't die

I think you're right about the new Fords. FORD = Found On Road Dead.

I 100% agree with this, I have a 2020 3.6L V6 and it drives smooth and well, but mine is the FWD. Of course I did get the 3LT trim and it's almost fully loaded, I love it.

​@bryceg364 lol it's a 2020 give it a few more years they where garbage 25 years ago and haven't changed!

I love my 2019 Blazer Premier, V6, AWD. No issues with it so far. I especially like the cargo rails, a feature they discontinued in 2021. I disagree about the Sonic though. I have the 2020 sedan RS. It was 20k out the door. It’s peppy and well equipped for the price. A great second car.

these guys don't do their research. there is a big difference in the types of GM 3.6L, there is the LLT, LFX and the LGX. GM shoulda gave the 3.6L engines different displacement numbers. like 3.6.1, 3.6.2 and 3.6.3L. just a suggestion., my 2020 impala premiere does not have a single recall.

@@geraldrstone I also have a 2020 Impala Prem 3.6. Great car, great engine. Keep the oil clean and it will won't let you down.

The ZF 9 speed transmission in the Passport is a controversial one.

The only real advantage it has over the CR-V is the transmission.

It is great, it just needs a few light updates.

@@bruceleeroy8302 - don’t forget the overall size and the 6 cylinder engine as well as its towing capabilities.

@@carhelpcorner - It has old school charm for people who don’t need the latest gadgets and gizmos. The same is true for the Toyota 4Runner.

it's getting hard to find cars that don't have the following: turbos, AWD, hybrid batteries and CVTs...these are all no-nos if you want a car that will last a long time without expensive repair costs.

​@@douglasscovil3447 There's absolutely nothing wrong with hybrids or AWD.

It's all regurgitation and brand BIAS against GM. Many people simply regurgitate what lots of those influences spit out.

I know a lot of GM 3800 V6 engines that were terrible.. blown head gaskets were common at 60k.. bad for oil leaks..

Whatever Nissan saved per trans, it wasn't worth destroying their reputation.

On the contrary..... there are GOOD CVT transmissions out there (ex., Subaru's), and more and more manufacturers are introducing them into their line ups, whether we want them or not.

@@eskieman3948 Subaru CVTs were pretty janky until 2018+ improved TR580s.

What's not to like? But, he's biased towards Toyota and we all know they're not without fuck ups and they're also over rated. He complains about the TAOS as uncomfortable. IT'S AN ENTRY LEVEL ECONOMY VEHICLE. The only thing he's right is that it's definitely over priced. 2024 TRAX is 5K less and you get a lot more for the $$$.

@@bmw803 Yeah, I was initially shopping for a sub compact/compact SUV when I decided to test drive the mk8 GTI. Fell in love & bought it. I have the base S trim. It’s one of the best value cars out there in my opinion

Always near the bottom of the reliability surveys, ranking even lower than French cars. VW are, like the rest of German industry including Mercedes and BMW, living on past glory and their historic reputation.

@@paulm2467 But I’m old, so the fun factor is where it’s at 😏

I would buy a new discounted Subaru WRX manual base model. I love older water-cooled VWs 2002 or older. Have a MK2 GTI and MK3 Cabrio.

Mx-30 was only made so they could continue sales of normal vehicles in California. It was more of a token vehicle, not an actual competitor, hence why production was low from the start.

Oh my, that doesn't sound very reassuring, considering only a few CVT stand the test of time. Maybe the Subarus? New models have turbo charger -- engine strain. They have DI which may carbon the cylinders. And.... well, this is the modern world of disposable cars...
