AHHH the body on frame SUV,
AHHH the body on frame SUV, is it the 4runner? I love those, I much prefer the body on frame over the boat like drive feel of crossovers.. Just waiting for them to revamp the now almost 10 year old model. anyway...
Every car has problems, just google car model+problems and you'll see a shit ton of complaints. It all boils down to how much and how often you want to spend on repairs/maintenance.
I'm looking for luxury and decided on the Volvo XC90, which are not known for their reliability, but I love the SUV and thats what I'm going to go with.
Just an FYI we do all the recalls for VW/Audi, Toyota/Lexus, Honda/Acura... and can tell you we send out SIGNIFICANTLY more recalls to the german brand owners. Working on one right now- Engine support bolts.
So my thoughts match the writers- Japanese have better quality control/more reliable.
