The 15 most UNRELIABLE cars named & shamed!

Oke question to all which reliable car is there compared to a bmw m4? Need daily driven, could take to track, around 450hp, dont go broke with fuel consumption and maintanance. Please answer so i can consider

German cars are trash when it comes to reliability. Buy Japanese and be happy 👍

One thing every one of the cars with electrical faults have in common is the electrical system. All of them have electrical systems supplied by Bosch. Everyone is familiar with the line "Lucas Electrics; the lighting company that invented darkness." While Lucas may have invented darkness, Robert Bosch refined and perfected darkness. Unfortunately that is a situation going back a lot more than 10 years. I recently retired my 1990 Volvo 240DL estate due to rot issues. Over the 33 years it was in the family, it was the electrical system that caused most of the issues needing repair. Surprisingly, the automatic gearbox was still original and untouched after 400,000 miles.

I don't understand how so many average working "shlubs" can afford a new car these days, last brand new cars I bought was a 1979 Mercury capri RS, 302 4 spd. (loved that car) and it was $7500 brand new, (back in the days when you could get a new Corvette for under $15,000, (yeah, their performance was embarrassing, at best but still a good looking car) and then I got a 1989 IROC Z28 and that was $14,000, these days, to get something that I'd love to have, I'd have to spend $60k to $75K, that's insane

Chevrolet "Captiva", sounds like something that will hold you in financial captivity

Oh, crap, the Ford Galaxy is now a freaking MINIVAN??? WTF? that totally disrespects what was a pretty cool car, especially the high performance versions. That is as bad as the Mach 1 being disgraced as a freaking EV crossover.

My son had a Holden Captiva , diesel, the water pump let go, completely destroyed the engine, throwing out the timing ,Wich put a rod through the block,it had only done 20,000 ks

They can't all be built like Yugos. Yugos were the finest machine ever devised by man in the history of mankind.

Used to work at a rental car company. Cars who would most have mechanical breakdowns : Volkswagen Jettas,Passats 2014 (mostly 2.5 petrol ones), 2013 Tiguans 2.0 TSI , 2013 Audi A3 2.0Tdi ,MK6 Golfs (diesel ones) , Mercedes Benz ML 2013 ,Audi A7 2013 , Audi Q5 3.2 (replaced the engine 2 times) , Range Rover Evoque 2017 blew the motor.

R 80,000!!! for a Range Rover engine fault!!!

How to fix a bmw... buy a benz they said ....

Who else thought German engineering was better than that😕

So basically don’t buy luxury

We've sunken 6k in our chevy sonic lt 2015 in repairs alone

Would it not be easier to replace the engine rather than repair it for some of these cars?

Get an Peugeot-Citroën-
Ford with the HDI Engine Series. 1.4-1.6-2.0. Extremly reliable and Old Technology that dates back to the late 90s

Skodaa

Not a Vauxhall in sight I must be dreaming 😅

Tata motors fault

Any Saab, NO PROBLEMS. End of.

I have a 2022 bmw x5 xdrive45e

Im glad i have a trusty reliable 90s toyota

how does this compare with how many of these vehicles are on the road, that are reliable!

Absolutely no more Range Rovers for me. It was a nightmare, a money pit, and stops in the worst place.

As a range rover and Mercedes fan, this actually hurts me. However, they're not the worst cars because there are cars worse than Mercedes and range rover so, this slightly hurts me less

I would be like hmm what's this and proced to keep breaking down, preamtic tormented.
Terrified, time for the finally showdown

Volkswagen 🔛🔝

BMW 750li

What Mazda CX5 made into that list😮. Buy Honda, Toyota and Nissan are sure Reliable!

No Toyotas on the list. That tells you something.

I wonder if cheaper cars aren't in the list just because if it's cheaper to repair them.

I bought an old Opel Astra H 2004 model. I bought it 7 years ago. I only changed brake discs, brake pads, a ball joint, and the battery ..... 7 freaking years, and it still runs safer than any of these expensive cars

I had a BMW X3 (Hats off to the germans for making immensely unrelieable car 😅) and the electrical sustem was really really bad. 1 single psi low in the tires, no prob, the infotainment system says “Go tot eh side of the road and call road assistance” This was my reaction

🤦🏻‍♂️

one car I would never buy is the VW Sharan, I drove one of these a few years back for taxi work & everything that could go wrong went wrong, I experienced transmission failure, Radiator failure, gearbox failure & drive shaft failure all within 3 months... also the 735i BMW which has electrical issues which could lead to a risk of fire starting under the rear passenger seats....

ok

I can't see a Toyota in this list 🗿

European cars in this list : 😎🚬

Welp a Toyota it is. Probably a '16 fortuner with the oh so lovely 3.0 D4D turbo diesel ✨

It looks like, the most reliable cars, in top 5, is the economical Japanese ones, the worst top 5 in the unreliable list, is medium/ high priced European ones.

Oh deeeear

Out of 11 brands, 3 are British (also Range Rover comes twice) - nice, according to the fact that all of those brands are considered "premium"👍

4k to fix the infotainment system! What a joke!

Essentially any car will have little to no problems if looked after.

Good list🐺

BMWs not doing particularly well on the list.

Wouldn't buy a Tesla at all.

Would have made more sense if you specified which fuel the failed engines used

These are luxury cars not ordinary cars like Hondas, Toyotas, or kias

Is the Chrysler 300

Toyota is the best car company ever

And the most RELIABLE ist.... TRABANT!
