Similar to the VOLVO, you have many of these cars exceeding 300k on regular maintenance. Cheers! Boom! The LEXUS SC400 or LEXUS LS400 should definitely be on this list.

Some of the cars on their are good, but I would pass on a lot of them. Sunfire/Cavalier, sidekick, and honda would be best. Good milage and they last forever. No point in getting a cheap beater if its a pig on gas and maintainance like the volvo. Ehhh… Some of the cars on their are good, but I would pass on a lot of them.

Sticking pedal and floor mat entrapment aside, the other crashes were attributed to driver error; in other words, the driver simply mistook the gas pedal for the brake. And just so you know, prior to the whole "unintended acceleration" debacle, Toyota was third in complaints of UA. VW/Audi had the highest number, followed by Ford/Lincoln/Mercury, followed by Toyota. The truth is this: no one builds a bad car today, but driver education (and driver retraining) in this country is laughably bad. Until we do something to address this, it's just a matter of time before another manufacturer has their turn in the hot seat.

Most of them are imports which are shitboxes and the few American ones that are on there are garbage the the totally unreliable taurus. Someone needs to go back and get an education before making such foolish lists. Who wrote this crazy list ?
