I own a Peugeot 5008 and my brother a Skoda Kodiak, and other than a few little things that have popped up and been quickly addressed we haven't had any issues. I wonder how many of these issues are a result of design/manufacture vs owners not properly maintaining and looking after the vehicle.

[@clinteagles9357]

Owned a 5008 1.6 THP. The high pressure fuel pump packed up at 40k mileage 3 months after warranty ended. No help from Peugeot. Valve cover started leaking, had to have it replaced and not just the gasket. Next was the heater core. Sold the POS and bought a GL Mercedes. Wow, even worse. Don't buy American built Mercs

[@nk53nxg]

I find European car manufacturers make the best vehicles in terms of design, packaging, driving dynamics, safety and economy. But, the use of cheap materials in areas such as water pumps, inlet manifolds, belt and chain tensioners, fuel pumps and just about anything they can get away with making out of plastic is becoming criminal. European vehicles are not badly engineered, they have had deliberate cost cutting material choices made to increase profit margins per unit sold, they know exactly what they are doing. If one manufacturer starts this practice the others have to follow suit to remain competitive, and so the cost cutting continues to serve the never ending shareholder dividend culture that has consumed Western manufacturing values and quality. Shareholder dividend king culture has destroyed the credibility of so many once brilliant Western manufacturers such as Boeing aircraft (a sad saga to watch), Mercedes, VW and many others. Also when it comes to terrible European vehicle electronics, most are made in China, Taiwan and other Asian countries? So why do the Japanese not suffer the same issues as they likely use the same 3rd party suppliers?? It comes down to the European customer asking the 3rd party electronics provider to build the electronic components to a certain standard. If they want cheap cheap per unit then the quality of assembly down to PCB quality, semi conductor quality, cleanliness of assembly and before and after QC checks will be far less. The customer has to pay more for higher quality assembly process, not all electronics are designed to the same exacting standards, a toaster or microwave is not manufactured to the same standard as avionics or military grade PCBs in missiles or oil field equipment. So the reason for crap electronics in Euro vehicles is not really down to the Asian suppliers either, it is down to the level of quality and therefore price requested by the customer, ask for crap, get crap. Electronics have a globaly recognised standard set by a body called IPC, who have a set globalised standard for electronic assembly depending on application and use. Vehicles should be around same quality as avionics for ECUs in my opinion as severe accidents could be caused by poor quality electronic when vehicle is in operation. You can bet your bottom dollar the vehicle manufacturing industry would be up in arms if they were strong armed into better electronic quality standards by law/legislation it would hugely dent shareholder returns.

[@mattdebyl8806]

Great vid as always. Was waiting for Journey / Freemont to come up. Good to see my comments were taken on board. I totally get where you’re coming from (especially once factoring that there are variants of these that are actually pretty reliable) regarding support and availability (as with anything stellantis). Regarding depreciation, to be fair these were actually stupid cheap when they were new. They’ve also depreciated to the point where they’ve already pretty much bottomed out. So for the very small amount of money they’re worth now they are actually superb value. AND a cracking good little 7 seater car. Ok, so hear me out on this: yes a Toyota is going to be more reliable on the same basis, but that’s barely a fair comparison. You can get an absolutely pristine one of these with the 3.6 perfectly maintained with bugger all kms on the clock for the price of a roughly equivalent Toyota that has been treated like crap and 300,000+kms on the clock. While the Toyota is inherently a bit more reliable, it’s not an equal comparison. Additionally to that, they aren’t really an SUV either. They’re more like a mini-van. So they get a lot of the cool / interesting stuff of those types of cars, rather than the pointless SUV type. We’ve had ours as a family load lugger for 3 years. Reversing camera acts up (probably a faulty earth) and that’s literally it. Bang for buck with these is insane and for that I reckon these are in the ‘most underrated’ section, rather than ‘worst’ section. Ain’t no way they’re in the same category as the Craptiva!!!

[@roelp1126]

I’ve owned several VW’s and it’s exactly for this reason I bought a new RAV4 last year. Even within the warrantee they were trouble and the service was sh*t. And if you need a seven seater, Toyota has a Highlander, Sienna and a Landcruiser in the showroom as well 😉

But yeah, most people don't properly maintain their cars so you end up with problems, very serious problems. About the French one: I've heard the 1.6 is actually fine now, but the 1.2 was quite a flop before they've figured out that the timing belt is disintegrationg into the oil system and clogs it, these engines now have a 10 years warranty in France, which will hopefully spread to the rest of the world...

You are confusing the old H9, now not even sold, with your images of the new H6 5 seater. The ladder rail Prado re-skinned as the H9 was actually an ok car. I have the new H6 5 SEATER hybrid and it has given 90,000km of faultless driving. It’s way more powerful, better specced, more refined and quieter, is more modern inside and rides more comfortably than its Korean and Japanese rivals, is backed by a comprehensive 10 year warranty, roadside, fixed services, and as per comments from a panel beater “built like a tank”. Oh and is 20-30k cheaper and more spacious. And used models are holding very good resale….the Chinese are coming and they undoubtedly have quality products (and crap ones) to rival even the euro stuff. That Australian journalists are so one eyed is a disservice to Australian consumers because the likes of Hyundai and Nissan etc are going to get left behind.
