| 0:00.0 | Mechanics expose the car brands that you shouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole. |
| 0:05.9 | My father-in-law has a transmission shop and he says if you buy a Dodge, he'll see around 60K miles and |
| 0:11.0 | happily take your money. My Dodge Caravan needed its third transmission by 50K miles. Dodge wouldn't |
| 0:17.2 | fix it under warranty because that expired at exactly 48K miles, even though |
| 0:22.2 | it was obviously a lemon transmission. |
| 0:24.5 | I have a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and it has something seriously wrong with the gas |
| 0:30.1 | tank and fuel system sensors. |
| 0:32.2 | I've had it fixed by the dealership, like new gas cap, only to have the problem pop up |
| 0:36.5 | again like a week later. |
| 0:38.3 | Browsing Jeep forums has led me to the conclusion that I'll inevitably spend thousands |
| 0:42.2 | replacing the gas tank, and that may not even fix the problem. |
| 0:46.0 | I used to be a Jeep fan, but I would tell people to avoid them now. |
| 0:50.6 | From what I've learned so far in my classes, stay the frick away from Chrysler. I can confirm. Two days after I brought my 300, the fuel seal was bad and the car stalled every time I stopped the entire way home. |
| 1:03.0 | Yep, any Chrysler product, especially the cloud platform. We're talking Stratus, Cirrus, Breeze or Seabring. |
| 1:10.0 | Look where the battery is. |
| 1:12.4 | Any range rover. Too many issues to list, but the air suspension is notoriously bad. |
| 1:18.7 | Okay, I'm searching all of these answers for Mazda. Not many results. |
| 1:23.4 | The entire reason Mazda was ever associated with poor quality turns out to be because of their appreciation of rotary engines tanking the brand's reliability figures, since companies like Consumer Reports couldn't mention the RX7 and RX8. |
| 1:37.3 | Chrysler, Plymouth, Dodge, Jeep, Rangerover. And you can take my words as an actual shop owner. You don't want to buy these. |
| 1:46.1 | I knew the overwhelming answer to this would be Chrysler. It amazes me when I see them on the road. |
| 1:51.6 | Like who went to a dealership to buy one of those things? It makes no sense to me. |
| 1:57.2 | A Honda Civic, because you'll still be stuck driving it until it crashes, and new cars are exciting. |
