| 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 ... | |||||

| How many shots does it take for a statistician to kill a deer? Two. One that misses 3 feet to the left, and another that misses 3 feet to the right No survey can offer a guarantee of performance - only a set of odds.

| I like your question. For what it’s worth here’s a true story. In 1992 my parents needed a car and they picked one out based solely on Consumer reports. They got a 1988 Chevy Nova. It turned out to be a total pile of junk, an awful car. Yes that was a long time ago, but just be careful not to put too much faith in those publications | |||||

| Scotty, is Consumer reports reliable anymore? I always thought so until I saw that they had a ram 1500 of all vehicles as the most reliable vehicle.. Ranked above the tundra.. that’s like saying the Chevy Cruze was better than a Corolla or civic... i feel the sleezy manufacturers have sent employees to create fake accounts as Consumers to talk down on other/rival manufacturers.. | |||||

| Hi Everyone, I have a 2006 Honda Accord V6 with 177k miles. I'm reaching out to figure out what I can do as a Consumer with the mechanic I've been dealing with. Last year summer time this car's AC was working wonderfully until the AC started to give out, the AC would always work 24/7 up until that point when it gave out. The car has been without AC for the whole fall, winter and spring months up until recently where I went to a mechanic (well the owner of the shop, he has two workers underneath him) who I've dealt with several times before to first test ... | |||||
