The least reliable cars REVEALED!

.............................................................

If you're in the market for a new car (whether new or used), have you ever wondered how reliable the car you're choosing actually is? Well, wonder no more! We've teamed up with Warrantywise to provide a list of the 15 least reliable cars you can buy!

Now one thing to consider is that these cars are all older generation cars, as any new model is likely to still be covered by a manufacturer warranty. However, it still helps to give you an idea of which brands and types of cars seem to be the worst offenders when it comes to reliability!

The question is, are you surprised by any of the cars on this list? And more importantly, would you still consider buying a car that's featured in this video?! Let us know in the comments!

Disclaimer: average repair costs collated over a period between 2021 and 2022. Since the sample was selected, Warrantywise has seen a significant rise in the price of labour and parts, which will impact future repair costs.

I admire Land Rover's consistency through the last two decades - always on the bottom reliability wise. Simply amazing achievement!

As a Land Rover:Range rover technician, I can tell you that business has never been slow for the last 23 years. This list is spot on

As a fiat panda owner I can confirm this video is legit 🤣🤣

This episode was awesome : ) this is what we need keep manufacturers honest and doing their job properly. Making quality products that command a premium price make sure it’s top notch. Thanks car wow.

The most shocking thing for me in this video is that warranty wise paid out. I had a terrible time getting them too pay up for my car when I had a warranty through them and when they agreed I couldn't find a garage too do the repairs because nobody wanted too deal with them. Even 3 of there own recommended garages turned me away as they said they didn't want too pay correct labour charges. I ended up paying for repairs myself.

"Alfa Romeos always break down, I can't believe you got one. You should have gone German..." Just goes to show how strong marketing can be.

I owned a f82 m4 & put 106k miles on it.
Zero issues & was stage 2+ BM3
Must have got lucky but was serviced every 5k miles / 6 months.
Driven how it was meant to be with lots of road trips around Ireland :)

Not surprised about the Range Rover, when we were looking for our current car we went to one prestige dealer near us (not a small place either) and they'd stopped selling them because one had an engine fault whilst under their initial 3 month warranty which necessitated a new engine and cost them £20k to fix it 😵

Can we please get yearly updates of this. Would like to see how the new models of these cars do.

[MrRoyPijnenburg]

Something to take into account: notice how this list is mostly luxury brands / expensive models? Thats because people that can afford these cars are the ones taking extended warranty. The cheap / middle class cars aren't represented. Who wants extended warranty on a cheap car that, if it breaks down, is cheap to fix? Nobody. Somebody making boatloads of money doenst want the hassle of finding the cheap local mechanic, dealing with waiting times etc. They just want their m5 fixed, ASAP.

Great video!

Seems to be a bit of a trend with luxury Euro cars 🤔

[TheMrFishnDucks]

Very informative video. Keep up the good work.

MATT please do an update for the most reliable cars ... the last one is 2-3 years old ...

[AndySV]

Would be great to see the difference between the older and newer generations that are lumped together to see if there's any improvement

[Themalusdarkblade]

It’s not the parts that cost it’s the ridiculous labour charges from dealers, great video as always matt!

[pulsarman]

Would be interesting to see the whole list, any links?

[CaptHotah]

Could you do a video with the most reliable aswell? Thanks 🤜🤛

[killamrbxb]

These prices quoted to fix these issues are absolutely disgusting, just goes to show how insurance works. Taking a lot of these issues to a decent local mechanic would no doubt cost a lot less.

[allosaurusfragilis]

In case anyone's interested, we've run golfs, a Passat and an up over the last 20 years and not had any big probs.
I do look after them though and do extra maintenance over what's scheduled.

[gooo]

Thanks a lot for the video. Really interesting to see!
