In the UK, they tend to rate highly in terms of reliability. They can’t be that differently made to the US?

My 2020 Palisade rolled down a hill after I had parked it with my wife and dog still inside. It rolled over my leg and foot, and I had to go to the hospital. My wife had jumped from the passenger seat to the driver's to stomp on the brakes as it slammed into the car behind us. Transmission grinding away as it rolled down the hill.

Could not recommend the experience less.

As the owner of a 2017 Tucson that drinks a qt of oil every 600 miles or so, I agree. So many stories in the Hyundai / Kia Engine Failures FB group. That’s not even mentioning the downright dangerous DCT (transmission)

What informs this opinion?

The biggest thing would probably be the fact that a large amount of them could be stolen with a usb-shaped dongle because the cars didn't come with immobilizers.
