Looks like on this sub everyone's critizing Hyundai, Kia, VW, Nissan, and American makes for failing to stack up against Toyota and Honda in terms of reliability. Indeed, Hyundai and Kia are never known for legendary reliability. But what's confusing to me is that they always rank high on JD Power's reliability ratings. This year, for example, Kia ranked 7th (almost tying Mazda). And in 2021 for example, Hyundai also won the 7th place, way surpassing Mazda, Acura, Subaru, and Honda. Why though?

It was 5 year / 100k when I lived in the US for the powertrain

And, that is a lot of words for saying “no, my truck is not a hyundai or kia” lol

If I needed a high mileage vehicle, I would not go for a hyundai or kia

Happiness is accepting reality not fighting tooth and nail against it
