The 10 Deadliest SUVs on Earth!!

if you plan to live with a car for a long time reliability meets everything especially when you're shopping for an SUV today's SUVs have come a long way from those dusty dirty and tough cars of yesterday in turn they're also becoming more expensive with lease respective shoppers with limited options shopping for an SUV however does have its drawbacks shoppers must consider what model engine cab configuration and trim level to look for one way to sort a new list of options is to understand which SUVs to avoid well luckily for you you clicked on this video because today you're gonna learn about the deadliest SUVs of all time first on the list we have the Buick Enclave the Buick Enclave was a step in the right direction for Buick who desperately needed something moderate in the lineup however its automatic transmission can kill you for starters the transmission whispers program from the beginning leading to strange behavior like improper shifts in high rpm count at cruising speed leading to lousy gas mileage then there was the issue with this shift cable adjustment clip which wasn't fully engaged in other words the lever and the actual position of the gear sometimes didn't match this means the driver could have put the shifter in park but the vehicle would have stayed in drive up next we had the Jeep Cherokee start track actor Anton Yelchin wasn't so lucky when his Jeep Cherokee killed him in 2016 here's why he died the Jeep Cherokee has been experiencing some consistent transmission trouble the ZF nine speed auto transmission simply doesn't adhere to the usual quality standard it shifts roughly has odd shift points and even suffers from sudden breakdown these are the only few transmission related problems that gave headaches to Jeep Cherokee owners in Cherokees defense it's the first vehicle that's been outfitted with the nine speed ZF transmission so both C F and F CA are probably using the SUV as some sort of testbed so if you're thinking about purchasing a chief Cherokee ThinkFirst if you'll be comfortable being the guinea pig up next we have the Honda CRV if you see a new Honda CRV for sale at a reasonable price don't jump on the opportunity just yet there's something off with one of the most popular compact SUVs in the u.s. many CRV owners have reported unnatural vibrations coming from both the engine and the transmission needless to say they have experienced them straight after delivery which can only mean one thing it's a defect this part the new Honda CRV often shakes violently while at idle and at low rpms and it not only comes from the shifter but the steering wheel as well and the dash and the pedals apparently Honda has found a solution but neither they nor the dealers seem obligated to inform the owners this can only mean that Honda is trying to keep this one quiet in other words they know they've screwed things up epically up next we have the kia sorento the Kia Sorento's main problem is related to the engine and the engine cooling so it was crucial to save your oil change receipts if you wanted Kia to honor the warranty that's one thing that many Kia's second generation owners learned the hard way they were baffled by the fact that their car excessively burned oil even after changing it regularly it doesn't matter if it's a four-cylinder or v6 the sureños engines are prone to catastrophic failures up next we have the Nissan Pathfinder now the Nissan Pathfinder has always been one of the most competitive vehicles in its segment however early third generation SUVs were plagued by cooling leakages which have ruined countless transmissions a defective radiator tank design that ruptures and leaks coolant is to blame when coolant mixes with transmission fluid it triggers a irreversible process of transmission erosion up next we have the Dodge Durango if an older Dodge Durango is what you're aiming at it's important to know that the models from the 2000 suffered from very unreliable engines which were prone to building up oil sludge and had a habit of failing the Durango's Magnum v8 engine simply can't be counted on among some of the better things that Chrysler produced over the years newer Durango's on the other hand suffer from FCA's well known faulty totally integrated power module which in turn can lead to all kinds of electrical issues it's no matter my most of the 2011 through 2013 model year Durango's have been recalled for this issue up next we had the Ford Explorer the Ford Explorer has had long and well-documented transmission issues most notably during the early 2000s it suggested that one out of 10 of the 2002 through 2004 explorers won't be able to avoid transmission failures somewhere down the line hard shifting skipping gears and a flashing OD light or what accompanies this issue typically the early 2000 Explorer can be fine for anything between 50,000 miles and a hundred thousand miles before requiring an entirely new transmission you'll agree however that a vehicle with this kind of model Johnny's a domitor shouldn't required to rebuild transmission up next we have the Toyota rav4 Toyota's are generally some of the most reliable cars and so as their best sold SUV the rav4 but if their model years to avoid when shopping for a rav4 these would be the 2006 2007 and 2008 the problem excessive oil consumption of course Toyota will tell you that it's nothing serious or even normal behavior but running through a quart of oil every 1000 miles or so can't be normal it may be caused by defective piston rings but the only thing Toyota has done so far is to issue a technical service bulletins to their dealerships this still doesn't mean that your vehicle will be covered by full warranty up next we have the Chevy Equinox unfortunately for prospective equinox buyers some early first generation models have suffered from well document head gasket problems it's probably due to the poor design of the engine cooling system but the equinox is 3.4 liter v6 engine deserves the title of head gasket leader maybe it has to do something with the fact that was made in China the Chevy Equinox is one risky car to buy it will likely fail somewhere down the line if it hasn't failed the previous owner already needless to say if you decide to join the army of disappointing Equinox owners be prepared to rebuild or change your engine entirely a blown head gasket requires nothing less if not treated preemptively up next we have the Saturn mu it died with the Saturn badge in 2010 but the vu should have been axed long before that it's almost forgotten now although it wasn't that long ago when it still rolled off the Saturn manufacturing plant geom also said of the class-action lawsuit related to booze extremely unreliable vti transmission extended warranties and cover repair costs did not mean that the problem magically went away there was still a lot of booze out there waiting for their next victim all of them are now officially out of even be extended 125 mile eight-year warranty plus the PTI's transmission itself was discontinued after 2005 so there's the issue with the lack of replacement parts avoiding it like the plague would be our recommendation well guys those are the deadliest SUVs of all time if you guys liked this video give it a thumbs also feel like we'd see the channel subscribe them to post
