I see such lists continually on the Microsoft browser.
Now some issues may be genuine concerns but most of those assinine lists are the BS equivalent of neighbor hood over the fence gossip and some are probably plants based on some one's opinion.

yup theyre made by 22 year old kids trying to make a career in writing that drive hondas with 4 inch sewer pipe exhausts. as to which are reliable ill only comment on what ive owned. jeep tjs werent that reliable other than bullet proof motors. my 2015 jk has been very reliable. only parts replaced that arent considered (by some) as wear parts were the injectors when the second one went bad i bought a whole set of better ones and it took about an hour to pop them in. other than that it now has 85k on it so last year i did brakes, front suspension and a new battery. keep in mind that one aint babied.

ive had many chev trucks but were talking newer so ill start with my 15 and 17 that were completely trouble free. than i had a 2020 ram. a good truck. only problems were the exhaust manifolds cracked they replaced them at 30k and at 45k they were both cracked again so i bought a set of shot tube headers and tossed the crap. i now have a 24 silverado and we will have to see but ill say this. the gm 5.3 v8 is as good as any motor ever made and the truck uses the same 10 speed auto ford uses and they too so far have been very good. her's my take on new vehicles you can buy any big three pickup today and if you take care of it expect 2-300k without major repairs. same for toyotas. mercedes bmw kia ect? i could care less. wont ever be one in my driveway anyhow.

 i chuckle at bashing jeeps. seems to be a sport on the internet. never by someone that actually owns one. owers love theyre jeeps and the funny thing is if theyre such a pos why to they hold their value better than anything else on wheels

  Much like other "click bait" videos, but even though it could be, I don't necessarily think it is some teenaged kid doing it.

  More likely, it is some slick advertising move by a marketer..inciting controversey, just to get those interrupting commercials up on the web..and
    getting maximum exposure for them.
