I found it amusing that the video was filmed at what looks like a Lexus dealership, but 0 comments about them. I own an RX350 and love it. Best car I've ever owned in my 50+ years of driving. Bought a used lease return 3 years ago, and have literally done nothing to it. Just changed the oil when due, and upgraded to all weather tires.

I had really bad luck with my brand new 05 TL 6MT. It had issues from the first month until I finally got rid of it after 7 years with 65,000 miles. In hindsight, I probably just got a lemon. But that has turned me off from Acura for good. Alternatively my dad had a 94 Legend and that car lasted for multiple hundreds of thousands of miles until he sold it to his wife's brother.

My BMW, a 128i, is not only the fastest naturally aspirated 6-cylinder BMW ever built, but it is also the most reliable BMW motor ever built. It is used in the 1-series, 3-series and 5-series, which is to say, it is the most numerous BMW motor. The upshot is BMW doesn’t want a lot of warrantee repairs on its most numerous motors, so it makes sure they are reliable. My particular copy was special ordered with only 3 options, leather, metallic paint and 18” wheels, and the iDrive is deleted. It has the 6-speed. I’ve driven her from 11K to about 62K miles now, and she has been almost completely trouble-free! A couple of expected issues, the coils and the oil-filler housing gasket, and that’s it besides routine maintenance… I am very happy with my little bimmer.

[@bengoey]

I bought a newly launched Mercedes A180 at the end of 1998 (UK), sold the car in less than 4 years of ownership due to problems. Just after 3 years , fuel injector failed, rear axel cracked , rear coil spring cracked. The car carried me only most of the time ( 99% ) and I am not heavy ☺. Town driving only. My present car is a Toyota which I bought new April 2009 , the only major parts replaced are Driver's side wiper motor and water pump. At present condenser of the Air Con needs replacing. I will replaced it in Summer. I vowed never to buy a Mercedes car after owning the A Class Mercedes.

The only one of these with which I am familiar is the BMW X1. It did not take me more than 120 miles to know that it was not a satisfactory vehicle. In fact, it used more fuel than the daily driver at the time, a 400,000 mile Volvo 240DL wagon. The only reason I rented it was that I needed air conditioning to take my mother to a medical appointment.

[@ellisrochlin2267]

wow listening to you its shaky ground when picking your next vehicle , but back here in the UK for buying a discounted 1 owner 1 year old from a legitimate franchised dealership is peeps/company or private that have either reversed the mileage or put a mileage blocker on it till the vehicles first official service , so example is some vehicles have 12000 miles or 12 months or 24,000 or 2 years . The digital readout could be showing 2,500 miles say after a year but it could have seen 20,000 miles of driving. NIGHTMARE . certain companies supplying the blockers actually quote that it doesnt record the TRUE mileage and cant be traced by the ecu part.

In the first year these are alll under warranty and (often) maintenance plans. There is zero additional cost, so I am skeptical of how much long term maintenance costs affect a decision to dump a car in year one!!

Get maybe 5.5 years total warranty, unlimited mileage (or is it to 100K miles?).

[@AvengerAngel]

When you buy a new 2022 Nissan Rogue, drive it 2300 miles and the electrical system intermittently stops working when starting the vehicle, you go to Toyota and trade it in for a new 2023 Rav4.

[@KPHVAC]

Nissan has been a disappointment for the last 10 to 15 years. They aren't reliable like they used to be. Toyota, Mazda, and Honda, are far better.

[@bossupathomewithtequila]

The rogue is utter trash. I traded my Brand new one in in less than a year after it wouldn’t start one day. It was 8 mos old !!!!

[@clintcord5839]

Shame on you for showing a Lexus on your thumbnail indicating it's among the list of crappy cars - CLICKBAIT~!

haha, sorry

[@kingjulien9525]

I'm hurt!! My 2011 Jaguar XF made the list. I got that same model since 2012, 128083 miles, I love that car, I'm familiar with the problems that you mentioned, but I still love it. It's not that hard on my wallet tho, I bring it to my local mechanic, not the dealership after warranty was off.

[@ECPP]

Great car and the newer version likely sees more shop visits but enthusiasts like us find ways to manage nuances of these rare and unique cars. I managed to own a Lamborghini and less maintenance budget than my bmw 3 series car. I still say enjoy that beasutiful ride

Great video brother. I have two Mercedes (2021 GLC 300 & 2018 C300) and have had them for 2 years now. No worries so far. Very reliable at this point. The dealer in Washinton State takes care of me. I would recommend these vehicles to anyone.

[@ECPP]

Hope it holds well for you too. They are a great driving unit, especially with the B58 turbo 6

[@ryanb8736]

Newer ones are nice. BMW and Audi have been putting lots of work into their vehicles, while others have been slacking.

[@ish5937]

Are the 2021 or newer Jaguar XF sedan reliable?

[@MichihiroHonda]

Absolutely not.

[@ish5937]

[@MichihiroHonda]

@@ish5937 check the JD Power surveys. Jaguar and Land Rover are almost always bottom of the list for reliability.

[@kmsnow6292]

Most of high end European cars, namely Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Jaguar and others are well known for their elegant, stylish looking and expensive. But their low quality and maintenance cost are just ridiculous. Only good for rich businessmen as they give them the ‘status’.

That’s fine

Yes yes

I'm stunned as well as a previous commentor. I've just leased a new C300 after our experiences with them for the past 10+ years have been exceptional. Not one time have we had a mechanical issue or any issue for that matter. Not a one! The C class fits me perfectly and I love the handling.

[@gusevening4910]

you are leasing. these MB cars only last 3 years before the problems start ….

[@KendallsMom]

My last car was a 4 year lease. I just had to change a tire in four years. Actually, I didn't want to turn it in. That being said I love, love this new 2024 C . Years ago, I did own 1995 C220 that I kept for 15 yrs, the only 2 repairs were brake pads and belts, not to shabby for a 15 years. My experience with these cars has been good. You may know something I don't, I can only base my assessments on my own experience.

[@gusevening4910]

@@KendallsMom That’s great. The 2024 C is a beautiful car, hopefully you have the same luck as you did the other ones. :)

Just had a oil change on my new BMW 230i at 1500 miles at the dealer. Wanted it bc it was a new break in engine so warranty didn’t cover it. It was a hundred and five dollars.

Although the model of BMW is not displayed, the white BMW shown at 10'16" is clearly badged as "BMW", not de-badged as stated.

They debadged 328 on it.

[@Pontiacman1964]

Maybe you should've bought a Kia rather than that Mercedes. I've had three bought brand-new since 2012 and never had a notable problem. Minor stuff few and far between. Fuel pump went bad in the first a 2012 Turbocharged AWD Sportage, under warranty. Nothing else for the life of the car and traded it in 2016 for an identical new one. Second was a 2013 Rio. Had it for 90,000 miles without even a license plate light burning out. Sold it to my boss and his kid totaled it. Third is a 2016 Turbocharged AWD Sportage. Knock sensor went bad at 95,000 miles and was replaced. Nothing else so far. All that compared to a 2011 Toyota Camry that we bought brand new in that year. Damned thing was leaking oil on our driveway because the robot that sealed the oil pan was out of calibration. Took it straight to Kia and traded it in. Bottom line is that any car these days can be troublesome. Depends on what robot was having issues that day.

[@davidpereira9238]

The worst part about the new Lexus and Toyota front end isn't the grille, it's the lip just above it. Totally destroys the rest of the design touches. So unnatural
