Hyundai and Kia are telling the owners of nearly 92,000 vehicles in the U.S. to park them outside because an electronic controller in an oil pump can overheat and cause fires.

    You’ll find people that swear Lexus is shit.

    Just buy the fucking car and maintain it properly. You will likely never have an issue.

      When I was dating my wife she had a used 06 Lexus hybrid. I would like to agree with you but our experience wasn’t very good either. Great car when it was fine but definitely found out the hard way to never hold onto a luxury car longer than 5-6 years. It’s not a problem that things start going, which is to be expected, it’s that they cost significantly more to have repaired. So even the little things started adding up. Thankfully my father is a mechanic and helped when he could but even the parts cost more than a regular car. Just have to find that fine line of when to sell before worrying about all the wear and tear stuff because it adds up quick.

        If you can’t afford a Lexus you buy a Toyota. Which is also expensive to repair. Because everything is, because cars are expensive.

        My point was the Lexus has, for a long time, been the most reliable brand out there. And they’re still shit sometimes.
