many unsold cars sit on the lot because consumers don't want pay $50,000 or more for cheap plastic cars overloaded with electronics, dozens of computer modules, and sensors. And after warranty expires, consumer are well aware that the cost to repair many of these vehicles is extremely high. Because in many cases, mechanics have to take the entire car apart just to replace a simple inexpensive part.
@nonofyourbiz9921Ай бұрын
You've only brushed over the real 2 problems. 1) Mechanical problems with most makes and models as the quality has declined as the greed factor has risen, which brings about - 2). The greed factor not only in price, but the overcharging for parts and repairs. Over $100 for a light bulb? and over $200 an hour to install it? Then there's the blown gaskets on the turbo charged engines, blown transmissions, and the major glitch in the transmission computers on the all-wheel cars also causing transmission failures.

Inflation and corporate greed make regular folks with stagnant salary/wage are not budging because they have more priorities at home. The lowest vehicle price tag, when I got hit by a SUV in May 2024, is about $25k. Most people would just fix their old cars more than putting on vehicle payments. People are struggling to make ends meet. The vehicles put some technologies and components that are not consumer friendly. Namely stop and go engine. Yes, you help mother nature but it hits consumer's pocketbook in fixing the vehicle. The turbo is another one. In short run, the vehicle is okay but in the long run, the vehicle longevity is an issue with turbo enhanced vehicle. The turbo is a poison pill.

Also, when starting it up, it is necessary to let it idle for a good minute or whatever the manual says. Also, letting idle for a minute after arriving to ones destination before turning off the ignition. I don't know whether a turbo typically burns out due to neglect or other reasons.
