A Nigerian whose moniker on Twitter is @Otunbakush1 listed twenty four (24) cars Nigerians “should never buy” because their problems can’t be fixed except when you take it back to the company.

In this post, we’re going to quote what he wrote on Twitter. He stated the problems the various cars came with.

NB: Please, what you’re about to read is the opinion of @Otunbakush on Twitter and not that of Autojosh.

Below are the 24 cars he listed and the reasons why you should never buy them.

1. Land Rover 3 (LR3):

First on the list of cars you should never buy is the LAND ROVER 3 (LR3), about 27million pieces was recalled months after production, and trust me millions Don enter 9ja.

It might look rugged but, the issues, Transmission, engines, brakes, electrical and so on, it’s can go off anytime on motion, and u will need a mechanic to open d engine right on the spot. The brakes ain’t trust worthy cos it fails anytime, oil leaking into the engine errors.

You will keep visiting the mechanic, and dey will keep collecting money from you, this errors can only be fixed by Landrover themselves, less I forget, d brake disk, and lining has sensors, and dey fail repeatedly, so u fit Match brake and ẹ no catch…you Don die be that.

Airbag problem, you can be driving, if u enter big porthole, d airbags will activate and boom on ur face, almost all of this car accident is caused by the airbag pulling on drivers face, avoid it at all cost.

Thanks. Yeah it’s not a good article. The Murano and it’s CVT is indeed an issue but can be remediated. The Pathfinder/Exterras are formidable off road vehicle if manufacturers maintenance schedules are followed.

Is Nissan Altima 2009 - 2012 a good car to buy?

Wanted a honda oddessy 2005 or 2006,is it a gud buy and what are the expected challenges if any?

AutoJoshNG:
[img]

This is completely inaccurate, a beer parlour attempt at investigative journalism and a real disappointment if this is how Auto josh does its reportage.

I don't have time to start going through all the lies but 27m LR3s recalled? How many LR3s were manufactured in total?

How will you say each airmatic ballon in a GL450 costs 900k when i bought mine at 45k?

Engine of a 2009 Mercedes Benz E class 3m naira?

This is like a thesis from an asylum patient and should be disregarded.

PS: Auto josh should not feign ignorance by claiming he was not the author. It is on his blog and for him to have reposted means he has given it credence which it doesn't deserve.

lol

highlandre:
Nice post. You've 'saved' lives.

That a technician is ignorant about how to manage a certain kind of car does not make the car bad.

Yet they have the guts to bash Innoson as if there is any perfect vehicle in the world.

Billions. of dollars spent on Boeing 787 Max and just one bad sensor took the whole project down.

But then and again, Nigerians love to identify with things that place them on a level they don't belong just to impress God-knows-who.

Go ahead and spend millions on the Indian vehicle called Range Rover and think you are the shiznit until it turns around and start driving you into misery. It looks beautiful which is the only criterion that appeals to shallow Nigerians. TO buy is one thing, to keep it running is another challenge.

The first warning sign against BMW X6 was in Emenike vs Coscharis. But die-hard Nigerians thought they knew better. One can rarely see those things on the road in Nigeria. They are either covered in the owners' garages or at the mechanic workshops collecting dust.

For as long as VW, BMW, Mercedes, etc have been in the market, one would think the companies would have had it figured out. But it turns out to be recall galore year in year out.
