Cars are overcomplicated Infotainment systems should be optional I prefer manual buttons levers and dials Talk about driver distraction plus you have to pay subscriptions and for repairs down the road If your products are unreliable social media makes it well known So there's that too Yeah as someone said here... overpriced and unreliable

[@bonaanayaga]

Also they should bring back the manual transmission

Look at 2025 Camry great intuitive hybrid

I just saw a recent survey about tech. The respondents said they preferred real buttons over trying to use a touch screen. I know I would rather just have a switch or button.

[@davetomlinson9063]

If the value drops significantly the moment you leave the dealer it was grossly overpriced in the first place,bring back affordability coupled with reliability and keep it simple.

Stop forcing useless new tech in the new cars! Most people just want a simple & reliable car going from Point A to Point B. Making car too complicated & too expensive to buy & maintain is just poor business for everyone!

[@mamadouaziza2536]

I agree with you.. However, it's consumer demand for new tech that drives sales. I have seen people walk away from a good car because the car didn't have 'wireless' Apple CarPlay. LOL. People want all the latest tech and luxury but are unwillingly to pay for it. They want dual climate controls in the front seats, cool and heated seats, self driving options and endless cameras on the car. The mechanic junkies want air suspension etc.. The car manufacturers want to remain competitive, so they add all this tech to their cars. The average Toyota Corolla is now at nearly $30k. I remember 10 years ago that a Corolla started at $12k. There are still basic cars out there like the Nissan Versa but no one wants it...

[@mamadouaziza2536]

@Dave-hb7lx LOL

[@toyotacorollaaltis8613]

The simplest modern cars you can get are either a Maserati which is probably outta the question or a Mitsubishi Mirage

[@mamadouaziza2536]

[@johnrobinson5156]

I like my cars that are 20 years old. They have manual transmissions, no side airbags, no tablet, and I can FIY. RELIABLE and cheap to keep forever.

I own a 17-year-old Toyota Sequoia with 300km on the odometer. Maintenance costs are normal. Reliability is abnormal. It's a dream car. Its value and reliability are confirmed by ISIS, Hezbollah, and the Taliban. I bought it 8 years ago at 240km for $4,000. Today it's worth double. I've only changed the oil, wiper blades, and tires. Always look to Toyota first. Trust me.

[@MichaelNelson-tz2hv]

I could afford a few of these but would never consider any of them...

[@JeffGarrett-n1h]

I'm driving a 84 ford bronco 2 with 355,500 miles on it and the total down time in 41 years is only a total of 2 months, as long as there is gasoline I will continue to drive this vehicle, I'm a mechanic and the best thing about this vehicle is that it is made with us steel , it might not get the greatest gas mileage but when it comes to body and frame strength it will out last any new car or truck

[@milemarkermike7234]

I wonder if it's not the car manufacturers failure to deliver quality when it's forced to comply with certain government mandates that cause these problems. For example: You could buy a Toyota and feel you could drive those forever without any problems. Now they have problems. Could that be the problem the government. And as how hard these car companies try to deliver to keep up with government mandates is getting their shorts handed to them.

[@filoniz]

No, I think it is tech in general. Back in the 2000s or late 1990s, you would not have heard of recalls or half-baked inventions being sold only to be recalled or need a new update. There was just better quality control before they were released into the market.

[@foxxster3565]

That is certainly part of the issue. DPF issues on diesels for example. Also much of this tech like lane keep assist and the new speed warnings are required either by various government mandates eg the EU and or are required in order to achieve the 5 star safety ratings. So yes governments mandates including emission mandates that require smaller turbo engines under high stress do indeed contribute to unreliable vehicles. The speed of change of those mandates also plays a part not allowing manufacturers to bed in new engines , tech etc.

[@robertmatsiko1044]

Honestly speaking reliability is key especially Wen driving on long distance trips

[@anorthernhiker]

Any auto manufacturer that goes all in on EVs is not uoing to last.

[@MalShedeck]

I think they need to design and build a car first, then add a computer to enhance it, not focus on building the car around the computer. Look at most car reviews and it seems they focus more on tech stuff then on car stuff.

Keep sharing this info, this way we can negotiate to OUR advantage any deals. Enough of sugar coating these gold tooth salespeople

[@alexanderjansseune1763]

The situation will deteriorate rapidly and treats affecting the near future economy are numerous. Not selling the stock could leave the dealer depreciating a huge capital with declining prospects of ever recuperating it. Its better to aim for break even and sell with loss than not selling at all and being stuck with gradualy outdating models

Manufacturers should bring back some individuality in their vehicle designs. Drive down the road looking at all the SUVs. Every one of them looks the same. Without the emblem or name on the vehicle, I doubt most people can't tell one from the other. It might help sales too.

Those prices are over board than people cant afford anymor. So the companies who are producing these kind of cars should re-establish by doing their own home work. That applies also to common brand that regular people buy or lease any car in the market today. So I hope it will some kind of wake-up call for everyone.

Q1: Dealers are up to the gills with inventory, yet they refuse to lower prices and continue to overcharge customers with unsolicited options, why? Q2: In spite of high inventory numbers, back in my home country there are waiting lists even for regular cars, why? Note: My home country is just south the US border. Q3: Dealers won't sell you a premium car (BMW, AUDI, MERCES, PORSCHE, etc.) if you don't add at leas 30% more in extra equipment, again, why?

My 2014 Toyota RAV4 has 180K miles on it and still going strong. I change my oil every 7K, ATM fluid every 60K, coolant and thermostats every 60K, fuel injection cleaned every 60K and DON'T go to a dealership for sservice. I don't know why Jim Farley didn't kill the Lincoln brand. These days, I would only buy a Toyota/Lexus, Honda/Acura, Porsche, Mazda or a Subaru. Subaru is 20% owned by Toyota.

[@aceventuraaceventura2003]

Most Japanese cars that were made in the 2000's and on lasts a very long time. I used to think that I needed to change my cars every 4-7 years. My oldest car is now 13 years old and still in excellent condition. I just make sure that it gets scheduled maintenance and drive somewhat conservatively. It's tons better to keep your older car running and pay unexpected expenses on it than to pay hundreds even in some case over thousand a month for a new toy which start to turn into a real pain in about 6 month after the novelty wears out. No more "you need to get that new toy because (fill in the blank)" is not working anymore for a lot of people thanks to COVID-19!

Unfortunately, greed will eventually bury American car manufacturers. They should build basic cars, like those made in the 1960s, and sell them for around $15k. Just make sure they all have 4-wheel power disc brakes, power steering, choice of a 4- speed manual transmission, and rear wheel drive for standard equipment. No Engine Stop/Start Technology, No CVTs, No cylinder deactivation, no VVT, no computer chips. Have optional 4-sp. or 6-sp. auto transmission, optional A/C, optional positraction.
