| Consumer reports is biased. I once read an article on one of their cars; I forgot the model but it wasn't any Hyundai product and it literally said "There are better family sedans on the market out there." If that isn't biased then I don't what is. | |||||

| Take what Consumer reports takes with a grain of salt. That being said, I don’t care how they rank those brands - it’s not going to change the fact people should not buy them, and we will keep warning others against them. Do I hope they will build long lasting reliable cars in the future? Yes, of course. Do I wish all automakers would do that? Yes. Will it happen? No. In fact, it’s a race to the bottom. | |||||

| Take Consumer reports with a grain of salt (they also recommend some German cars to buy!!!) and listen to the mechanics (like Scotty, Car Wizard, and others) who actually work for a living fixing cars (regardless of make and model) for decades. They have accumulated a wealth of knowledge on which vehicles to buy and which to avoid, so it’s wise to tap into that. They are not sponsored by anyone except the truth. | |||||

| Consumer reports mags make somewhat decent toilet paper. That's about all they are good for. Hyundai/Kia are junk and if you're buying used, don't think you'll be able to lean on that 100k warranty. It is non-transferrable and only applies to the original owner, who they will also try to screw out of warranty repairs. The fact that they don't transfer their warranty should tell you all you need to know. But if not, search this forum for the nightmares others have had with their products. | |||||

| ... (2014 new generation, 2018 MY had new cylinder deactivation technology known to wear engines out). Check out the links below for more information on buying cars. I also find Consumer reports to be decent compared to non sence rankings like JD Power but their "long-term" isn't 20 30 years. They might find a Mazda, Toyota, and Kia are all reliable to the same degree in the first 5 years and they would keep it at that. The initial surveys are also annual so thats 1 year of ownership, not much better than JD Power's 90 days. | |||||

| Consumer reports is definitely better than some other publications out there such as J.D. Power. Optimas, Sonatas, Terrains, Enclaves, Sorentos are all endless moneypits. Look at Toyotas, Honda's, Mazdas, Subarus, and Suzukis. Even Ford's can be half decent, although I would recommend avoiding the Ecoboost. | |||||

| I heard you mention in another video to never trust Consumer reports when researching vehicles (since we don't know. I purchased a membership a couple months ago to help me in my used vehicle search myself, and am now wondering why not to consider their opinions? They seem to love Toyotas as well (not that that says much) but they have always been revered as being the best test company out there, for cars to home appliances, etc. What is your overall view of Sonatas? I'm interested in them (yes I know 2011/2012 have had bad engines but Dealerships have rep ... | |||||

| Hi Scotty, I've been subscribing to Consumer reports magazine for many years and always enjoy reading the yearly car review edition. I'd be very interested in hearing you summarize their car reliability report and comment on which cars you may agree or disagree with. | |||||
