So, I see Toyota, expensive Toyota, and Subaru.
I'm a bit of a Toyota fanboy, I own a 2008 Tundra I bought new that's been the best vehicle I've owned, however the new one has not been fairing well in the reliability department (the new engine has issues). I have heard from a few sources (one personal friend) that Toyota quality has dropped the last decade too. If that's the case, what does that say about the others below these three?
You can still be best even if the "whole" group's quality/reliability is going down I guess.
2007 Tundra here. Represent ๐ค๐ค.

AFAIK, the new Tundra engines had issues, but they were corrected last year.
They've extended the recall into 2024 models so I guess we'll see how that goes!
I see last month they made an extension to cover certain models from 2024 because they currently had ~2600 warranty claims that they felt could have been potentially related, so they basically extended the recall in order to include those as well, and maybe any they missed.
The extension means that Tundras built between Late Dec 2022 - Mid Feb 2024 are included in the recall.
Regardless, Toyota did issue a recall and any customer given a new engine does not have to pay for it. They are standing behind their product, and admitting there was an issue and correcting it.
Ya, good to see for sure but I'll stick with my 5.7 for a bit longer!
I have two, 9 years old each. I don't remember where the dealership is. But, those cars are not festooned with screens and computerized bullshit like new ones.
