Nearly every japanese automaker's cars for several years. Takata airbag recall was a big deal
True! I don’t understand why Japanese cars have the reputation to be so ultra-fail proof. Quite the opposite is true.
I don’t mean this in whataboutist way, I pray for Elon’s demise so the world can heal.
Depending on the model and how you maintain them, some Japanese makes very much last a long time with a minimal of expenses.
Having daily'ed American, Korean, and Japanese cars, thw Japanese cars have been the most reliable as long as they are maintained.
Among those 3 that might be so, although Korean cars since a few years have caught up and are way more fun than the bland Japanese ones.
I put the most miles on a Veloster compared to any of my other cars so far - the difference in build quality is still quite noticeable. The car was well designed, but it wore out / disintegrated a lot faster.
My big metric for cars that last is the "stay fixed" metric. On the Japanese cars, typically they "stay fixed" once you do maintenance. I was repeatedly replacing the same parts on the Veloster that no other car I've had would ever experience failure on.
If you keep comparing absolute shitty American brands to the Asian ones, of course those will win the reliability contest
The Veloster was a Hyundai, a Korean manufacturer, and the car was made and imported from Korea, according to the VIN and all the little "Made in Korea" stampings on every part. I got it because it was an economy car with a Dual Clutch transmission.
