10 Least Satisfying Cars and SUVs
These models stand out for how much they disappoint their owners
On paper, it seems to be an easy task for automakers: to achieve a high owner satisfaction score, just deliver on what you promise. Year after year, the models that rise to the top of CR’s owner satisfaction rankings are ones that deliver what their automakers promise.
Unfortunately, every year, there are also models from automakers who talk a big game but can’t deliver the goods. What’s worse is that we often see the same vehicles on the least-satisfying list, year after year. Despite our warnings to approach the least-satisfying models with caution, a new crop of owners purchase these cars, SUVs, and trucks each year, only to realize how truly disappointing they are.
