4. Jeep Wrangler
Starting MSRP: $29,995
The Wrangler SUV is a popular off-road SUV known for its rugged design and great capabilities in tackling various terrains. Despite Jeep’s status as a beloved American brand, its iconic Jeep Wrangler repeatedly falls below expectations when it comes to reliability and may not be the best option in its segment.
According to experts, the rugged compact SUV has been subjected to a couple of recalls over the years and isn’t as creditable for scoring high safety ratings either. While it offers an enjoyable off-roading experience, it’s susceptible to rust as well as suspension and steering issues that necessitate repair work, making it one of the least reliable cars on the market.

I always buy Toyota/Lexus and I always will
Common theme here is automatic transmissions of any form are garbage. It is a constant weak spot for many brands and models. For years. I don’t know why people insist on buying automatics and putting up with expensive repairs, down time and short vehicle life. It’s time to go back to manual transmissions. People need to be a little less lazy. But if you absolutely insist to have your $tarbucks$ beverage or text, then an automatic provides a little easier (but not safer) way to multitask while driving. But the definition of insanity is repeating something over and over expecting a different result. The news here is continue to expect problems and large repair costs for choosing an automatic transmission. And don’t get me started on EV’s that don’t have transmissions. That’s another foolish choice.
I have a Chevy Silverado 4.8L. It recently passed 300,000 miles. I am the third owner, and have driven the vehicle for 9 years. At $3000 , I would say that is a bargain. I have had to replace a carrier bearing in the rear end, but so far the trans is going strong. also I don’t baby my vehicles. I drive them like I did when I auto crossed my 83 VW GTI. the fuel injection in it died at 240,000. After 14 years I was really tired of the car and sold it for parts. The correct feeler gauge would still snag on the lifters. It had mechanical lifters and with regular oil changes , the valve train never needed adjusting in all that time and hard use. As to the silverado, I use mobil 1 and change the oil once a year. with the mileage on the truck it leaks several quarts between oil changes , so it is still going strong. European car makers just don.t build very good auto trans. The TH 400 in my 69 firebird was street and stripped modified and stood up to 650 HP.
my hyundai accent was a piece of crap and so wasn’t their warranty
