The title is somewhat misleading, where it says Chrysler is last. Prior to looking at the numbers, I interpreted the title as Chrysler motors, which includes Ram, Dodge, & Jeep, all being bad.

Our favorite is our Subaru, it’s our second new one. Our least favorite is our F150, I cuss at it every time I get in.

Jeep more reliable than Subaru? Don’t make me laugh. Horse hockey.

Ordered my first Toyota in Dec '22 (a 2023 Tacoma TRD Off-Road with leather seets and tech package) and picked it up in Feb. '24.

What a FANTASTIC vehicle. The 2nd or 3rd week I owned it I was in Tennessee. Was offroading and got it up to its axles in mud. Turned on Crawl Mode and shifted into 4L. Got itself right out. Laughed my butt off afterwards.

Back in January I took it out in a heavy snowstorm with 10 inches on the ground and accumulating and went off-roading into a farm field. Had a blast with it!

Already know it's the best vehicle I'm ever going to own. My '96 Cherokee I6 4.0L High Output is a very close 2nd.

Wow, I decided to look at the 2018 JD Power survey. (Year my car was made) The industry average that year was 142 problems per 100 cars. Now it’s 190.

Lexus and Toyota even though at or near the top on both years list have slipped considerably. Some things never change, Land Rover and Chrysler were at the bottom in 2018 as well.

I’m sure Electrification and all the Safety system bells and whistles inc. the info system display panels are causing this.

Honda/Acura have really fallen. Toyota always amazes.

I started buying used Toyotas in the 90’s when they smelled like fish when hot. Since 2000, I’ve had 5 new Toyota’s and knock wood, never had any of them back for anything but oil change, tire rotation, fluid changes, etc. No mechanical failures in 100’s of thousands of miles and 5 new vehicles. They are cheaper to buy, depreciate slower, cost less to own and resell readily. My two most recent new Toyotas were built in San Antonio with US labor and over 90% USA made content. A similarly equipped GMC Denali was >$30,000 more expensive than a Platinum Tunrda in 2017. Same story on my most recent ‘24 Sequoia.

Interesting that Buick ranks just below Toyota. For the record, the Envision is made in China and the Encore is assembled in South Korea. I won’t buy a car made in a China but I’m curious if anyone has had any experience with the Envision....
