Least Reliable Cars

Car Help Corner is a very underrated Youtube channel IMO. Shari Prymak used to be with Mohammed Bouchama on the CP24 weekly Car Help show before Covid, it look's like he is now doing this Youtube channel.

Here he give his list of the 10 least reliable vehicles, no punches pulled!! I am happy that I did not replace my 2015 Yukon with a 2024 Yukon as I was sorely tempted to, because the lifter issues with the 5.3 and 6.2 GM V8s are ongoing according to this video.

And the other vehicles in the list are the usual suspects!!

Good list but vid could be tightened to 4 minutes.

Agreed. But I guess he is targeting a wider "non-car" persons audience beyond us car enthusiasts who are already familiar with most problems associated with the vehicles on this list. Car Help Canada's objective appears to be a non partisan consumer help organization and as such he does not do any of the kind of reviews done by other channels which are provided cars by automakers to review and in a sense obligated to not push the negative attributes very hard in case they are frozen out by an automaker. That would explain the longer explanations for each vehicle on this list.

Much like when people say "this meeting could have been an email", this video could have been an article.

It's a common gripe about you tube. All vids stretching length to get more ads in.  I bet most click out of lengthy vids.
