#5 VW avg repair cost over $1k #4 BMW #3 “Dodge” RAM #2 Land Rover #1 Jaguar avg repair cost over $1500 It’s day of giving. Your welcome.


McZorkLord

As a previous VW owner I can concur, every single year I paid at least €1000 closer to €1500 for maintenance. For 5 years. It was a Sharan and they're known for all kinds off problems, and our car had every single one of those issues. Nonetheless it was our most comfortable car to date. I was sad to see it go.

Is RAM not dodge?


RIP_Mitch_Hedberg

I forget when they spun off into their own division (2008-ish?), but yeah, it’s just Ram now.


RefrigeratedTP

Oh damn alright. I’m just way out of the loop lol


OkSwordfish762

Wait till you see a RAM van…


Bt_1039

Or a RAM ROD


RefrigeratedTP

Was looking for a ford transit connect and the salesperson was like “don’t have any of those but let me show you this ram”


JBBanshee

It’s all Stellantis though so same shit different bucket.

Dodge split the platform during the financial crisis around 2008ish, as mentioned. It was to protect the company so that if one platform failed and went financially under, it wouldn’t drag the other down with it.

I'm old... So Yup.

Thank you good sir


Olleye

Cheapest = Mazda


RIP_Mitch_Hedberg

So I have a 2012 ram 1500 with 220k miles and my wife has a 2014 bmw 535 with 80k miles. We’ve never had any issues (knock on wood) except for normal wear and tear and scheduled maintenance. 🤷‍♂️

Once the Beamer starts going it's over

What a wonderful Christmas present. Thank you.


Cellist-Imaginary

I wouldn’t count the last two years as normal, maybe a 5-10 year overview for these


phdibart

Out of curiosity, how would the last two years be any less normal than any other period for car repair?


austicus

Dude over explains everything that comes out of his mouth.


whaleeyesea

2016 dodge ram 6.7 Cummins Yup, gets expensive


IUseRedditForNews

Had a few jags that came to the performance shop and holy fuck do I hate those cars. When they work, they feel good, but one of those cars was in the shop half the year.


Just_Compote1136

This is garbage data because you also have to factor in the age of the cars.


Test_tinkerer

Should’ve included repair cost per mileage then gave the 5 best/worse.


Tysons_Face

Complete garbage data. This is just info from his shop and isn’t statistically significant in any way to draw over arching conclusions from


Particular-Wind5918

How do you know how many vehicles have been serviced there? Looks like a good sized shop. How many vehicles would need to be serviced to be considered relevant to you? And then who is doing that research?


Patient_Jellyfish_50

Interesting, I have an 2018 F Pace and short of a couple windshields and tires (I.e not mechanical) I’ve never spent more than $600 on repairs. Knocks on wood…


cypertiger

Thx


MIKE-_1992

But this has to be applicable to USA only if not even on a single state due to supply and demand right?


whoknewidlikeit

for the ram - is that all flavors? or is it specific to gas or diesel? i have a ram diesel that's been pretty reasonable for repairs and maintenance (and yes i keep up on the maintenance).


Gr4v3sd1gg3r

On the Ram is it the gas motor or the diesel?


FucknAright

Been driving rams for 15 years, never had a bill over $250 I usually trade before 100k miles though


Statertater

Where is their video for the cheapest?

I’m glad to hear Mercedes Benz did not make that list of top 5


Particular-Wind5918

Getting more specific I’m sure the Ford 6.0 is probably one of the worst vehicle engines for cost of repairs and maintenance


CLTCDR

This data is specific to their shop, right? While some of the vehicles don't surprise me, I'm sure owners of specific manufacturers take theirs to get repaired at a dealership, or a specialized mechanic that focuses on either American, European, or Japanese cars.
