AVOID: 2024's Most Unreliable Car Brands!

I believe (and will show you why) these car brands are making unreliable cars and SUVs. In my opinion, all of these are unreliable SUVs, unreliable cars, and just products you want to avoid. You need to get more than 60 000 miles out of your purchase, so that's why I'm sharing this big list of cars to avoid!

I remember the days of the Jeep Cherokee up until about 2004; solid vehicles with the in-line 6 cyl engine that hadn't changed much over the 1990s except Jeep fixed all the defects. Incredibly reliable vehicle you could work on with a basic tool set. My brother had one, unfortunately it got totaled when a drunk driver hit him (he walked away OK). I guessed they redesigned it so the service techs would have some work to do? No Hyundai on this list, but I'm old enough to remember their entry into the USA, when their cars would literally fall apart at 40K-50K miles for any number of major issues. They're much better now (have they fixed the recent string of engine problems?).

I don't like how everyone did away with the straight six motor. By simple engineering and design you can't get better than a straight six motor. No counter balancing needed. No extra balance shafts. The straight six was just by design a perfectly balanced engine. Meaning less vibration and no extra parts needed causing more power loss, friction, unnecessary complexity. The straight six was simply balanced. The pinnacle of it all. They've never found better. According to basic physics and engineering there can't be any better though a 12 cylinder might equal it. Why on earth did they get rid of the straight 6? Was it TOO good a engine? TOO reliable?

I've come to the conclusion that most car issues are the result of improper maintenance.

Drive vehicles like you have some sense and maintain them.
