- 2007–2013 Chevrolet Silverado
2007 Silverados with AFM 5.3L V8s commonly drop a lifter and wipe the cam — a $4,000+ repair on a truck worth less. Rear-cab corner rust is also widespread.
- 2014–2019 Chevrolet Silverado
2014 Silverado 5.3L AFM lifter failure remains the leading kill, joined by AC condenser leaks and 8-speed transmission shudder.
- 1999–2004 Honda Odyssey
1999 Odysseys are best known for 4-speed automatic failure between 80k–120k miles — Honda extended warranty but most owners face out-of-pocket replacement.
- 2005–2010 Honda Odyssey
2005 Odyssey 3.5L V6 with VCM eats rear motor mounts, burns oil through stuck rings, and the 5-speed automatic continues to fail around 120k.
- 2002–2009 Toyota Camry
2002 Camrys with the 2AZ-FE 2.4L are oil burners; stripped head bolts and blown head gaskets end most of them by 180k.
- 2007–2012 Nissan Altima
2007 Altima CVTs commonly fail between 90k–130k miles; a $3,500+ replacement on a $2,000 car drives most owners to junk it.
