10 BRUTAL Cars You Need to Dump Before Warranty Expires!

If you're looking at these cars and SUVs, you need to get rid of them before warranty runs out! They are money pit cars after that because they're junk, they're brutal, and they're expensive! At least, that's what I've found in my experience. If you're looking at a used car or SUV too, you should probably walk away from them!

Anyone buying a Nissan beware of the infamous “CVT” transmission as the biggest automaker’s garbage! It’s a closed system transmission which means it can’t be rebuilt & only lasts in the neighborhood of 60K miles! If the dealer tells you the transmission has a lifetime warranty be aware it’s NOT your lifetime, it’s the lifetime of the transmission which once again 60K miles! 23:25

Today’s cars are far more complicated than they should be. These cars are highly prone to constant breakdowns, although in today’s age, it’s not a necessity to go running to the repair shop every single time a feature of the car breaks. Just do without it. The blind spot warning system on my BMW 428i convertible doesn’t work and frankly, I don’t miss it. I just placed those oval blind spot mirrors on my side mirrors and whale….no more blind spots. Other than that, this car’s been rock solid reliable. It’s only got a 4 banger, but that little engine puts out the equivalent of a V8 built in the early 2000’s. And it gets great mileage. KNOCK ON WOOD!!! BMW’s aren’t exactly known for their reliability. But this car hasn’t just been totally free to repair (there’s yet to be a single repair), it’s been cheap to maintain as well. Of course, it certainly helps that I only drive a few thousand miles per year. Annual maintenance has yet to exceed $100 per year. As such, even though its warranty has expired, I decided to keep it, because I have no doubt that I could quickly find myself behind the wheel of a troubled car. So when it became time to add an additional vehicle to my stable, I looked backwards and purchased a 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark V. Sure, the gas mileage is less than steeler, but it’s extremely reliable, especially compared with today’s cars. And it’s a gorgeous car.

Wow...and I thought my 1980 Yugo was a pile of junk! At least it was cheap! Seriously...I'm 71 and have owned and been around a lot of good cars since my youth. I'm in shock there are so many troublesome vehicles out there where millions of unsuspecting car buyers have wasted good money fixing their "rolling junkpiles." It sounds like a Communist plot to me.

[@rowsdower12]

What about the Chevy Malibu last Gen? Or current which this year is the last. 1.5lter turbo makes me nervous but otherwise I think it's a great looking car and decent mpg

[@MazichMusic]

Dodge Grand Caravan around 22 minutes? That's a Chrysler Pacifica. I have one and it's been great. Let's just say most vehicles have issues at times.

The Ford Bronco Sport is built on the Escape unibody, while the real Bronco is built on the Ranger platform (body on frame)

Sounds to me like we all just need a bicycle like my favorite artist J. Cole. Uber will suffice on rainy days and for groceries.

[@ECPP]

Haha nah, just stay away from these junkers. Many good models out there

[@azmike3572]

If we watch a lot of these car reviews, we might not then want to buy ANY car.

[@guilleport]

Well I guess Toyota is still the King.🙏👍

[@ResinRat2]

I have a 2021 Escape. Four recalls so far.

[@ECPP]

Wow, that’s quite a run

[@toddw.8277]

I liked the Ford Escape back when it was a boxy SUV. My company had a few in the mid 2000s. So in 2019 we went looking for my wife car. I saw and drove the new one. Man it was ugly, weak, loud, and boring. I told the sales man unless they were giving it to me I would never own one. He was not happy.

[@djsmith4789]

Theres a simple solution to your main concern in this video... Get extended warranty before your basic wareanty expires! You have 3 years or more to save up a few grand for it, so theres no real excuse!

[@ECPP]

Thanks

The cracked injectors are on the 1.5 3 cylinder eco boost engines

Ok can you tell me which Subaru can last for long time and which year i would buy for better reliability?

[@kellyriley7918]

I have friends that swear by outbacks and foresters.

[@olympbarca3313]

​​@@kellyriley7918really? I have heard that they are good venicles. I have a friend who has 3.0 legacy and it's amazing and reliable car

What ever happened to “FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION “????

[@kwilliams1958]

The Four Tops 1965: "Now it's the same old song but with a different meaning since you been gone." Unfortunately, Mark, this list of vehicles follows the lyrics above year after year. Nice synopsis...

The only STI is it blow up are highly modified I've got a 2015 with 250,000 Mi and I've never put a dime into it

[@Funkydood]

Mr. Canada: I own a 2012 Sorento, with 102,806 trouble-free miles. NO plans to get rid of it anytime soon!!!!

Tiger plus iguana is tiguan. If that makes sense

What is the white residue on all these vehicles?

[@CMBBmc-jd6ur]

Fairy dust.

[@stuartfisher1640]

You reap what you sow if you buy one of these vehicles

[@sseltrek1a2b]

maybe naming the vehicle, "Escape" was a warning that you might have to...

[@jasoneyes01]

8 track seems to be the 8 levels of mania you will encounter owning the vehicle.

[@frankdeboer1347]

Just because a vehicle has recalls doesn't mean that it is garbage. The original Focus had tons of recalls but was a super reliable vehicle.

[@markvincent5992]

@@frankdeboer1347 I had a Taurus that Ford did the head gaskets replaced under recall and I bought it from them used. As long as they cover and do the recall properly, you aren’t left with a huge bill and they usually have a warranty on the recall ( limited)

[@badazzbro3756]

I have a 2020 murano awd platinum no problems 29,000 miles, also I use o own a 2009 murano 140,000 miles I gave to a relative and it's also going strong. Like you said in your opinion!!!! I would buy a nissan over a ford any day of the week.

[@lucpaquin6025]

Just don’t buy so you don’t dump your money.

[@ECPP]

Quality vehicles are still worth it. There unfortunately is more junk on the market these days

[@benjilafouine]

I have a 2014 Escape and that year model didn’t have all these issues with the turbo 2 litre engine. The suspension problem is usually a worn control arm. Easy to repair. No coolant intrusion, etc. Mine is at 100,000 km (60,000 miles) and still going strong, provided that you take care of the rust than develop at the bottom of the front doors. Knocking on wood.

[@valeriemegraw2875]

Headed to local shop on Monday to address rust on bottom of doors. My driver side rear door is the worse. Will get quote for under body rust issues. 2014 titanium 58,000 miles. No engine issues.

[@benjilafouine]

@@valeriemegraw2875 I’m doing this by myself. With antirust treatments, the undercarriage of mine is still all good. As for the doors, I had them done once like 5 years ago but I should have done them by myself, which I’m doing since then. A bit of sanding with a coarse sanding paper, then a primer coat (don’t use spray can), then a 3,000 grit sanding paper just to smooth it, then two final coats of paint and again, a bit of smoothing and then clear coat. Of course, this is not a single day operation. It has to dry before smoothing. Then it’s just like new! You need a garage but you could get away with it. Also, watch these ABS sensors in the back. Both failed on mine and the car was jerky with the dash illuminating! Provided that you have a Torx bit set, it’s an easy job.
