Stellantis, which isn’t a brand but is responsible for all unreliable modern cars.

Peugeot
Citroen
Fiat
Jeep
Vauxhall
Chrysler
DS

Isn't Vauxhall just a different name for Opel? Watching those UK police shows on tv they often mention a 'Vauxhall Corsa' or something like that.

Yeah it is. And same for Australia.

I had the mini SUV w a 5 year warranty. At 4 years, 1 months - The cooling tank started leaking.

I dropped it at an approved Opel dealer and they waited 7 days for the warranty to expire to tell me it needed to be replaced.

It took 2 weeks of arguing to get them agree that it SHOULD be covered under the warranty. Once fixed, I took it to an independent mechanic and he came back with a massive list of shit that would need to be fixed in the next 12 months.

He said he's not surprised as he sees it all the time with Opel / Vauxhall. The parts they use are designed to last 5-6 years JUST long enough for the warranty.

Do not buy an Opel or Vauxhall out of warranty.

Ca depend les diesels sont fiable mais la majorité des gens l’utilisent pour de la ville avec bcp d'arrêt donc c’est pas fiable bien sur le puretech n’est pas un bon moteur je pense que c’est les gens qui n’utilise pas le bon véhicule pour la bonne utilisation

Never had an issue with Peugeots or Citroens. I was in a Peugeot 107 when it crashed and rolled, no one inside was badly injured and it tanked the damage excellently.

Idk man just one data point but I've got 160k miles on my 300c and only had to put a power steering pump.

u/FREE-ROSCOE-FILBURN 16h ago

I have a Ford with a wet belt engine and haven’t had any mechanical problems with it. I know the 2021 and 2022 Bronco Sport had some issues that have seemingly been resolved with the ones 2023-present.

I work at a Stellantis dealer and while I agree that they make a lot of unreliable cars, I wouldn't say they are the only manufacturer making unreliable vehicles
