I never had any problem with any of my cars, so any critique on any car manufacturer is a hit piece, right?

#23Had my Model Y for 4 years with no issue! Funny enough, my 2007 BMW had so many issues and cost so much to maintain i used to call it a “wallet burning machine”
"Big Money Waster" is what we used to call them. They are notorious for electronic faults in particular. They're just very complicated, which electric cars aren't.

#24Here are the key points one can have after using some scripts to load the content: * Tesla Model Y ranked most unreliable among nearly new cars, with 17.3% serious defect rate. * TÜV report found rising major defects, particularly in electric vehicles like Tesla’s Model 3 and Y. * European brands, especially Mercedes and Volkswagen, dominated reliability rankings across all age groups.
Are you sure about that third point? Going to the graph they link, Volkswagen ranks near dead last: https://www.autoblog.com/features/predicted-car-reliability
I think the TUV is mostly about safety equipment (light, breaks) that don't pass the two year check (they probably also test the alignment and other stuff), and your link might be about engine/transmission/power train defects.

#25My Model Y has been more reliable than the two Highlanders I had before.
The question is would you pass a TÜV check?
They find faults long before your car breaks down

My friend and I have started tinkering on our cars together.
He’s got an early 90s 525i BMW and I’ve got a 2000 SR5 Toyota 4Runner.
The engineering of my Toyota is so much simpler and easier to work on than his BMW. But his BMW has given us a lot more practice, if you know what I mean ^_^

Imagine seeing an article backed by statistics and facts and describing it as an anti-Elon hit piece.

So your 19 year old car has more trouble than your 4 year old car? Weird.

#30I’m confused from the report about how Volkswagen and Mercedes beat Toyota in reliability when my perception is that it’s not even close.
Are the Germans biasing toward their companies? Or am I underrating VW’s quality?
