Ahhh...the SSR! I love it and hate it. I worked on a shop where we did a full custom stereo in the bed. Fiberglassed the full bed. Had subs, amps, tvs. Thos was in 07. He spent 30k on just the bed of this truck. It did grace the cover of a few magazines so that's the love. Other than that wouldnt have one lol

[JohnHernandez-ldst]

Looks like GM dominated this decade for worst cars. Not surprising!

[deloreanfan]

2:55 i had no idea till recently this was just a dressed up Contour

[fritsb]

The X-type was a brilliant car! It drove like a mondeo, what isn't bad at all, and was covered in leather and luxe! Great little car!

[AkiRalcolf]

Okay. Most of these I can definitely understand. But when you threw in the Saturn Ion. Naw. That's crossing a line bro

[AnthonyParrilloRI]

PT cruiser’s ehhh you may not like them but they sold. I raced a turbo one one time and I couldn’t believe how much a run for my money it gave me. Stayed right at my tail couldn’t gap it.

[faba]

The Pontiac Aztek concept was actually cool AF - but the product they released was from what the concept promised to be.

[nitgfgk]

Every car, every automaker from 2000s to present all decided to go cheap on everything and overdesign their cars. So the 1999 model years was the last good years.

[philojudaeusofalexandria]

The PT Cruiser was a huge success for Chrysler, though.

[smoothdaddie]

There is a older guy with a Blackwood here in Sacramento he has owned it since I was a kid

[philojudaeusofalexandria]

I drove a compass (re-badged caliber) when it first came out. Brand new car. But my nearly decade-old Honda Civic was smoother and quieter AND handled better. It was a disgrace of a new car. And even though it was a Jeep, it had zero off-road capability if you got the base model.

[michaelsimko]

I right away knew GM vehicles were gonna dominate this list, with a few Chrysler products also making the list.
The late 1990s was a time when GM was already beginning to cut costs and manufacture unreliable vehicles with bad quality materials. Things got even worse for GM once it was the beginning of a new millennium. Other than leadership around the turn of the century, one big thing I'd have to blame GM for doing is going too far with expanding their lineup in the late 80s and early 90s. That caused financial troubles as the years went on. GM had a bad reputation with rebadging from the 1980s to the 2000s too.

0:29 That Chevy SSR is literally get GTA SA Defective Edition and turned into Slamvan but Defective Edition.

[fgeiger]

The SSR was a great idea hampered once again by GM bean counters. They were forced to build it on an old SUV platform to save as much as possible. Same story with the Aztek. It was supposed to be a Firebird SUV. The concept called Bearclaw looked awesome but they were forced to use the existing minivan platform. Now people really want them.
Hilarious story about the PT was about the hype. A friend ran a bank and one of his employees thought she saw the first one we've ever. He shut the branch down and they all went out into the parking lot. Turned out it was one of those VW Beetles with a Rolls-Royce grill. 😂😂😂😂

[Karrpilot]

How could Fords on the dew 98 platform not make the list? Everything on that Jaguar body was garbage.

Lincoln's ls and the Thunderbird were electric nightmarish junk. As well as slow. They were in the shop almost as much as on the road. We couldn't wait for the warranty to expire.
