These 4 Car Brands Are Gone This Year!

[@lordraja297]

I used to own a 2.5golf, i couldn't lock my doors after the warranty expired, such bad electronics

[@ECPP]

Agreed I have owned a few VW over the years and most have bad electrical systems. I had a Passat with sunroof, window and lock issues and a couple of Golfs with intermittent electrical gremlins

[@MICHAEL-vu3dc]

Great stuff. On Honda, you will see a focus on different markets,Mitsubishi will be SE Asia, pick ups,minivans,etc.,Nissan Sports cars,medium SUVs, some electric, Honda will be the flagship, Patrol will be rebranded for Honda, Infinity may be cut off completely, it's a looser for a while and not very popular My uncle is on the board for Honda for development in Europe.I saw some stuff coming out by 2028 on the Acura line, and it's out of this world,ICE and electric hybrid beasts!!!!

[@shattered115]

Jeeps are not selling. You can still find 2022 models being sold as new on dealer websites.

[@littlestinker9716]

Same for RAM and Dodge. Thousands of new 2022 vehicles rotting on lots.

[@ECPP]

That's true, the inventory is still building up for the other brands too.

[@richardbeckmann6720]

Should have also mentioned chrysler and dodge and ram Statlantis screwed everything up.

[@ECPP]

Great points thanks

[@Cerby1979]

Yep. The cheapest vehicle out of the 4 is the highly unpopular Dodge Hornet (knockoff of the Alfa Romeo Tonale) starting around $36,000.

[@lotus956]

Volkswagon getting caught ted handed with pollution defeat device was hilarious.

[@littlestinker9716]

Chrysler for sure. It's already a zombie brand.

[@ECPP]

Totally right about that

[@mackou812]

My sales Guy told me that Cadillac is doing away with the XT5 after 2025 I hate to see it go

[@ECPP]

Replacing with EV

[@jaykay15601]

Jeeps don’t have death wobble from the factory. Most of the time, not always, the wobble comes from modifications.

[@ECPP]

True and a little slop in the front end from wear and tear

[@lordraja297]

say what you want about Jeep, but my Compass has already lasted 4 months trouble free

[@ECPP]

Haha can it make 4 years?

[@Blue-moon12]

I hope this was tongue-in-cheek.

[@jonboz7585]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@gordanpejic3352]

😂 entire 120 days without issues? Wooow 😅😅😅

[@johnb1658]

4 whole months 😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣 I’ve put 65,000 trouble free miles on my Toyota in the last 15 months 😂🤣😂 if I had a jeep it would be in the junkyard by 2 years old 😂

[@factchecker9358]

After seeing the Chinese EV market drive Tesla to respond to extreme competition, it makes you wonder what a free market for Chinese cars in Europe and North America would do to prices and quality in those markets.

[@ECPP]

Interesting question.

[@TheConservativeKid]

Toyota, Honda, Subaru, Mazda will always be the safest way to go. If you don’t want any of those then these three brands are ok: Hyundai- DO NOT BUY ANY 4 CYLINDER ENGINE IN A HYUNDAI Kia- DO NOT BUT A 4 CYLINDER KIA Nissan- they’re actually ok, as long as you don’t buy one with a cvt or any model made in 2012-2018

[@ECPP]

Thanks for sharing

[@The_Saxon_of_Riverstone]

Jaguar aftermarket is going pickup after the announcement in the recent drabble. Well I hope my Fpace will last 5 years… and f I keep up with the upkeep.

[@ECPP]

Yes there are often a backlog of parts for a few years anyway.

[@NGMonocrom]

I genuinely think they'll stick around longer than a year.... But honestly, not much longer than a year.

[@ECPP]

Thanks for sharing

[@ron8935]

Stellantis is nothing more than a conglomeration of the worst vehicles made for the past 30 years.... Attempted resuscitation of garbage😂😂😂

[@ECPP]

It seems like in my opinion a collection of the industries junk

[@martinparr4194]

As an immigrant to the USA I’ve always thought that Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge have had exciting looking cars and trucks. Quintessential U.S.A! When they were little cheaper than the competition they made sense but now they are ridiculously expensive they don’t. If you have a cosmetically attractive vehicle but a reputation for bad build quality at least keep your prices down to have a foot in the door. At the moment I’d still prefer a low mileage V6 Charger or Challenger for the same money as a new base economy car small 4 cylinder turbo. I own a 2014 jeep patriot that I’m on my 11th year with. Only just hit 50k mileage. It has a sunroof, heated seats and a remote start. 2.4- 6 speed automatic. Agricultural compared to today’s wiz bangs but because it’s regularly serviced with low mileage and cost thousands less than the competition at the time, I’m pretty happy. Great for snow days too, that electronic diff lock is a nice feature to have.

[@dwaynerudkavitch5307]

You are describing every issue that seems to be in other brands as well. All the vehicles being sold now are crap. I'm looking for a vehicle in a SUV and all new engines, tech, etc. Even the supposed brands with durability have their fair share of engine issues or potential issues down the road when buying their product. I would love to see the companies stand behind what they build and take responsibility for it when it breaks.....wouldn't that be nice.

[@ECPP]

Yes but the accountability is simply not there nothing will change unless it means. Just enough to stay in business

[@Ghostfreak2874]

Nice videos!

[@ECPP]

Thanks for the visit

[@g-man2507]

For a Nissan and Honda merger to work, the Honda genes would have to dominate. If the Nissan genes dominate then they are doomed.😂😂😂

[@ECPP]

And Honda will as they are providing the bailout

[@factchecker9358]

How many years have to roll by before people start to ask why battery tech and range have stalled?

[@ECPP]

Well…..

[@Huey4214]

You forgot to mention the horrible 3 cylinder engine used in the Nissan Rogue in front of that crappy CVT transmission. Double death sentence. No one would miss any of the four brands you highlighted and you just touched the surface of the depth of junk on the new car market today.

[@ECPP]

Thanks and you are right. Whoever thought a variable compression turbocharged 3 cylinder engine coupled toy a CVT was a good idea

[@jonboz7585]

Great choices to hit the dust. I do believe most people want less expensive, smaller, gasoline fueled, non-turbo, non-CVT, reliable cars. I know such vehicles probably will never be made by the larger companies, but watch out for China. Sad.

[@ECPP]

Give me a stout NA I6 and a manual six speed with minimal electrical options and solid reliability and I am good

[@verapena9465]

❤

[@Cerby1979]

Because of Stellantis, Ram, Jeep, Dodge, and Chrysler will end up in the dustbin of history

[@ECPP]

Treating that way

[@peterkauss5852]

Unfortunate, due to the history of Chrysler in the old days.

[@bruceyung70]

Used to work for Chevrolet, Nissan, and Geo back in 1990 and Nissan used to be pretty good with VQ engines in Maximas and Sentras were decent sellers. Nissan 300Z was a damn good car but a poor sales leader. Chevrolet Corvette had issues with water-leaking windows and we had to park it inside the shop when rained outside. I can't remember if it was just one Corvette with leaking issues or if it was a recall for the model but regardless a brand-new Corvette shouldn't have water leaking through in the first place. Chevrolet Lumina was a decent car but Corsica’s were selling very well. So many cars disappear but some cars like Jeeps I won't miss. Junks.

[@ECPP]

Yes there has been a lot of junk through the years. Some have survived and others have not

[@Recklessroyal]

I have a 2017 Jeep Cherokee trailhawk no issues and it has 109,000 miles on it! I love my jeep❤️

[@ECPP]

Good to hear it’s holding up.

[@Recklessroyal]

@ I love your channel!!! I will agree tho Jeep probably won’t be around much longer but my Jeep thankfully has had no issues I definitely wouldn’t buy a new one haha❤️

[@Nepuh]

I love that he films 20-18 years old beetle, looking ok for it's age and talks about reliability :)

[@know916bound]

Probably has relatively low miles, because these never made it to high mileage without being over babied. Let alone they're really slow.

[@ECPP]

Agreed

[@drwisdom1]

How do Nissan and Honda merge? Simple, they make Hondas at the Nissan factories.

[@martinparr4194]

What if Nissan had have gone with a basic 6 speed automatic like Mazda did. Cheaper, pretty attractive looking and no major Achilles heel that makes choosing one impossible.

[@colinchandler6516]

great video

[@abdainawi]

Surprised with jeep wrangler going away.

[@ECPP]

Sales down due to high prices

[@Bigsteppa559-q9p]

I’m surprised Alfa Romeo isn’t on the list.

[@ECPP]

They are actually selling well in other markets it’s just that they never caught on here

[@WeeFreeMan78]

​​@@ECPP Well, despite the bad rep, Alfas are often proven to be troopers, way more reliable than German cars. And in Europe, maintenance and parts are quite cheap

[@johnnyonthespot2498]

i wont cry

[@ECPP]

Most won’t

[@kevinspeich987]

Are you related to that wing flapping Scotty K?!?

[@ECPP]

Not at all

[@MisterTee]

I wonder if Jeep will actually go away or if they will greatly shrink the models and options? VW is unlikely to go anywhere.

[@ECPP]

Well time will tell on all these

[@gladysobrien1055]

Nobody wants VW built in Mexico‼‼‼

[@frankbrowning328]

All of the major brands (regardless of price) have had a drop in quality and that needs to improve. Even Toyota and Honda have seen their quality slip to the point where they aren't all that much better than Americas big 3. Hopefully Honda can save Nissan/Infinity.

[@ECPP]

Exactly many brands have fallen off in these last 5 years. It’s becoming obvious in previously quality brands

[@johnb1658]

They are still Farrrrrrrrrr better than the big 3 😂 speak with you own them, not what consumer reports says in their 90 day study lol

[@frankbrowning328]

@@johnb1658 Better yes just not nearly as good as they used to be. I've had Toyotas and Hondas for many years (I just prefer them) as well and I'm seeing their quality go down hill

[@shattered115]

VW will last because of its size worldwide. There will always be a market for Porsche.

[@ECPP]

Porsche sales are down too though

[@seawall5102]

I agree with you.

[@edwardkrochmal8268]

CEO'S at Vehicle Manufacturers want higher profit and designers to get cheap parts made. Yet CEO'S kept raising prices to the Moon. Dealerships have too many vehicles to take in 2025 vehicles. People look into GAP INSURANCE BECAUSE IF NEW VEHICLES GO DOWN BY 20 K YOUR SCREWED IF VEHICLE IS TOTALED. GAP INSURANCE PAYS FOR THE DIFFERENCE OF WHAT YOU OWE THAT THE INSURANCE COMPANY DIDN'T PAY.

[@ECPP]

Exactly

[@Bigsteppa559-q9p]

The only stellantis car I’d consider is a used Alfa Romeo Giulia with warranty, Dodge, Jeep & Chrysler are all trash. but Alfa Romeo might leave US market in a few years due to unpopularity.

[@ECPP]

Alfas and Maseratis are wonderful cars but there is too much negative inertia against those brands. I personally like them and they are no worse than a modern Benz or Audi but the depreciation does hit hard and as a result a rough purchase from an investment perspective

[@Bigsteppa559-q9p]

@@ECPP Yeah no doubt about the deprecation hitting hard, my brother recently purchased a used 2023 Alfa Romeo Giulia Veloce AWD with 18,000 miles on it with about 3 years of warranty left on it for $25,900. The mrsp was $51,929 in 2023… that’s literally a 50% depreciation within a year lol & it’s definitely not any worse than any modern Mercedes, Audi or bmw. The Maserati Ghibli is what gave Maserati a bad reputation but they discontinued that model.

[@rahimi4762]

No Maserati?

[@pjsneeringer5942]

❤❤Nissan and VW=COMPLETELY JUNK

[@ECPP]

Yes they can’t expect consumers to keep buying problematic cars that cost as much as they do.

[@peterb5464]

Jaguar a Guarani word…..

[@ECPP]

What do you mean?

[@peterb5464]

@ the word is from the guarani language of south america. Just a bit of useless information.

[@BeverlySeverence]

This narrator needs cross country skiis. Pollution free, quiet, no complexity, and great exercise. Cars? Put your groceries on your back or pull a dogsled.

I'll try that out this weekend

[@user-lu2cg9fo8i]

bye bye

[@ECPP]

Most of them won’t be missed

[@pjsneeringer5942]

Natural selection ​@@ECPP😂

[@samuraizer69er]

A Honda and Nissan collab on models would be super nice. A sports car between the two would be nice. I hope Honda can help Mitsubishi as well. I’m super surprised they even exist since they have like two models left

[@ECPP]

Yes get back to some honest sports cars would be great

[@olympbarca3313]

I feel bad for Vw. My favorite models of this brand are Passat cc ,Touareg second generation and Arteon

[@ECPP]

Cheers

[@colinchandler6516]

right

[@xaviermorel6352]

jeep always been pure rubbish

[@ECPP]

Yes they have been

[@czarekaj1098]

On top of reliability problems, Jaguar decided to sell cars only to LGBTQM&W+ - + - people

[@ECPP]

Car companies should never go political

[@jonwear9791]

Jeep vehicles are overpriced and of poor quality junk, and the company is aware of this.

[@ECPP]

Yes

[@kimnewling5728]

Wow

[@ECPP]

Right?
