I Ranked All Car Brands from Worst to Best

Rev your engines Today I am going to talk about the ten

worst

and

best

automakers that sell cars in the United States, but I am not going to include European companies because I do not advise anyone to buy them for several reasons. I'm talking about everyone else now I'm going to start with the

worst

and number one as the worst manufacturer of cars sold in the United States is Fiat Chrysler, no wonder Chrysler had poor quality problems to begin with, they fooled the Germans when they were damn Chrysler the Germans lost billions I'm in the owner they abandoned them and then Fiat hit rock bottom well it's like going from the frying pan to the fire when merging Chrysler and Fiat now Fiat itself left the United States decades ago and came back, but look how horrible their car sales are going now, the real Fiat brand in the United States sold less than a thousand vehicles in June 2019, fool me once, shame on you fool me twice, shame on me, well the Americans don't want to be.

It's a shame they're not buying these Fiats, but of course Fiat technology is in a lot of these Chrysler cars, the engines, the transmissions, and a lot of it is just garbage. I have had customers who bought new once the engines blew up at 40,000 miles, the transformations didn't even shift properly in the first place, they are just terrible vehicles and I would recommend staying away from them so if you only hear one thing I say make sure not to buy a Fiat Chrysler. product if you value your money now, the second worst vehicles as far as I'm concerned, our GM vehicles, it doesn't matter if you come GM GMC Cadillac, whatever it is, they are all owned by General Motors.

I remember when I was a kid, Dad. song what's good for General Motors is good for the US what's good that's no longer a truism because if the country was in the same situation as General Motors we would be in dire straits so I learned to drive in a Chevy Biscayne as a boat, you didn't drive it, you sailed it down the road, but it was a pretty bulletproof vehicle, it ran and ran and ran, but it was in Niagara Falls, New York, so everything rusted there and finally The body rusted out, but we saw the tool gauge at a junkyard, he took the engine out and put it in his junkyard truck that he was collecting scrap metal with and he drove us around for years and years, the engine kept running, but Unfortunately, if you upload it today, General Motors products just don't work. what used to be their quality control is moving a lot of the production to China, they will move everything there.

I don't know, they will get better quality control, but to stop it, do it here, many of my customers who had GM products. They told me they would never buy another one if they bought one that was made in the last eight ten years, especially when we were talking about small cars. GM never made very well built small cars, overall the company just doesn't show that they are making quality products, I would stay away from them until number three on the list is Nissan, they merged and were acquired by Renault a couple of ago decades, not for me, it's a sad case because when I was young they were called Datsuns and they were small cars that could run forever then they came out with the sports cars, the 240 Z, and they were great sports cars after they merged with Renault and yeah, the early 2000s might be fine, that was after the merger, but you go to 2006 or above you're making a ton of crap.

I had clients with them. 40,000 miles, mufflers fall off. I mean, that's a simple thing, if you can't even weld a muffler on a car, think properly about what you go with the rest. cars, I mean horrible transmissions and they make a lot of CVT transmissions that just fall apart. I see more Nissans coming out with CVTs and then people find out that it's going to cost me six eight thousand dollars to put in another transmission and the cars. They are worth three or four and they just throw the car away so stay away from Nissan if you value your money, Kia number four on my list.

I wouldn't buy a Kia, no, if you're cheaper you want to save some money, they can be good cars. If you don't drive more than a hundred thousand miles or don't last more than six or eight years, keep in mind that they don't have the quality and you aren't saving as much money. I made a video the other day and I showed that in 2008, if you got a Kia SUV $6,000 cheaper than the rare SUV and although the quality was great, I worked on one the other day, it had 50,000 miles, the air conditioning had already broken , the compressor turned off. but if you compare a 2019 Kia SUV to the 302 rav4, you were saving less than two thousand dollars buying a Kia and for that small amount of money, I would buy the Toyota as long as you bought a long-term car.

Don't give me any trouble, you don't buy a Kia, now the latest manufacturer and I wouldn't buy a car that I rate so low is Mitsubishi, they have always been cheaper cars, many of my clients with Mitsubishi at a young age. they burned a lot of oil I don't know why they can't learn from history they have always had cheap piston rings they just burn oil as they get older three decades ago I had a client who wanted the blue smoke to look like they were spraying to get rid of mosquitoes driving On the road, you can often only get parts at the dealership, where the prices are extremely high and many people don't know how to work with them, so you go to the dealership and you'll pay exorbitant prices. to fix them, so although they are cheaper to buy, they can be much more expensive to fix and there really are so many options today and decent vehicles, why would you go and try to save a little money?

Get someone who is a lot. cheaper made the piston rings wear out the engines burn oil now yes they cost less that's how they sell them you can get a Mitsubishi Mirage. They started at like $13,000 and they said I've had customers that were happy with them for a while but they don't fall apart as soon as you buy them and since they are cheaper cars people always want to buy something that costs less but if they really you value your money over time, it would be better to buy a used Toyota or use a Honda. then you would buy a new Mitsubishi and it would probably last two to three times as long if you kept them for a long time.

Now here come the top five, number five is Subaru, which might surprise you because I usually tell people no. a Subaru fan I'm not a Subaru fan, but they've been doing some interesting engine designs lately. If you live in a snowy area, a Subaru's system is pretty much one of the

best

systems out there, they're the ones you really want. I'm a total pig, I'm all-wheel drive and four-wheel drive systems. I understood. You live where there is a lot of snow, but Subaru may not be a bad idea. I know in the past that the head gasket causes problems in your automatic transmissions or garbage.

I still tell people today that if you really have a choice, the Subaru gets a standard transmission. No, number four is Mazda. Now I don't have many miles to fan, but there are reasons you might buy a mom, so let's say you want a nice little sporty one. car, there is nothing better than the Mazda Miata for the price. There are excellent cars lately. My Mazda customers are reasonably satisfied with the vehicles. They make some decent cars of various types and they are quite reliable vehicles. They are now number three on my list. The list of best-made cars is Ford and I know people might say, "Oh, it's an American manufacturer." Well, their quality has increased and they are more or less starting to specialize here in the United States, they have practically abandoned a car.

In the market they will only make Mustangs and focus on trucks and SUVs, which as far as I'm concerned is a smart move for their smaller cars, they weren't as well made, they had problems, so Ford will stick with what they They do better, truck type things, hey, I put them number three on the list, and number two on the list is Honda, Honda actually makes the best engines in the world, their engines are even better than Toyota's. Honda has fewer engine related failures. in their vehicles than even Toyota's Honda in the list of engines and number two Toyota and like Toyota they have a wide range of vehicles that you can buy and again I have really good resale values ​​because in They are generally very good.

They built cars, but as they always warn people, you have to do a little research on anything because some of the newer Hondas that have GDI turbocharged engines have an oil dilution problem. I wouldn't buy one of those until they fixed it, but it's not often that Honda makes big mistakes and of course Toyota is the better car maker. And people complain all they want and say, "Oh, they don't have the quality they used to have." Well, nothing is, but they are still better than all the Rest, Hold on, yes, you are going to pay more for one, but there is the market for you.

Toyotas have incredibly high resale values. Why, because people know they are good, the market won't lie about it if the cars are bad like Jaguars. resale value, I get customers who if they're crazy enough can buy a nice looking and running Jaguar that's seven or eight years old for a couple thousand dollars, so now you know the bottom five and the top five automakers in the USA. that you can buy, so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair videos, remember to ring the bell.
