2022 Volkswagen Taos

transmission

The transmission shifts inconsistently causing either jerking of vehicle at low speeds or inadequate acceleration when needed to merge into traffic.

I would rate this vehicle at least 4 stars if the transmission did not make driving this vehicle Work and tiresome.

The DSG transmission is a very poor choice for this vehicle.

The transmission is a bit laggy from a start

but until the embarrassing 7-speed transmission gets addressed, I wouldn't recommend the Taos to someone.

The only negative comments I have is about the transmission.

but the uneven power delivery is a hazard and I would warn others to avoid the AWD version until a future time when VW either fixes this condition or uses a different transmission in the next version.

lights

.the car violently Jerks sometimes when stop at the light when the ignition shuts off,the lane assist will randomly shut off.

I purchased this in January and at only 4000 miles has been to the dealer multiple times for stop start stalling, EPC code, check engine light and other electronic issues.

Lately, while driving, the car will flash the check engine light when it's low on gas.

tire

All wheel drive and we added Micheline tires.

golf

It's like a baby Atlas and a big bro to a Golf, like a lifted Golf.

ride

but gained AWD, way more passenger space for family and friends and a more comfortable riding position for when I feel like running about.

The quiet and smooth ride of the Taos has been thoughtfully designed and engineered.

It has a very comfortable ride (a little on the firmer side) and it handles very well for a CUV.

Nice balance between sportiness, efficiency, noise, & ride.

It's a very compact car, I find that the passenger seat ride is okay - I have a baby-seat in the rear that only allows for so much room in front-passenger seat

It’s a comfortable ride and easy to maneuver.

The car is beautiful on the outside and such a smooth ride.

Acceleration is not bad, better in Sport mode, ride is good, and handling surprisingly nimble.

comfortable

The soft touch makes resting the elbow more comfortable,

Sporty stylish exterior and technology-packed interior with loads of room and extremely comfortable seats.

On our first road trip we averaged almost 42 MPG in great comfort and safety.

Interior is extremely comfortable for 4, w/ lots of luggage space.

but nice, and the seats are super comfortable.

room

I'm 6'6" and I fit quite comfortably inside, plenty of head, leg, and knee room!

Great fuel economy, handles like a sports car and plenty of room on the in the cabin.

but, you should not need to push the seat back for basic foot room.

I'm 6'4, and I have ample leg and head room.

2022 Hyundai Accent

noise

In fact the car is very tight and literally no wind noise.

All panels and moldings are fitted well and there are no squeaks or rattles so far.

The higher profile tires contribute a quieter and smoother ride and will be cheaper to replace!

but the shape matters and the Accent's trunk has a great shape for luggage and takes a surprising amount plus my golf bag fits easily in the wide opening.

It has a good amount of tech, is sturdy and rides nice.

It’s tight handling with plenty of power and comfortable.

I have no regrets and enjoy this car the more i drive it.

A lot of fun to drive with enough room for a subcompact.

2021 Ford Explorer

but to say that things I really like you said 360 Copilot cruise control it stops for you automatically slows down for you automatically drives for you automatically what more can you ask for it's got comfortable seats my seats are heated my steering wheel is heated I've got a moonroof that's beautiful when you open it and it's huge it's double moon also 300 horsepower keeps up with the Mustangs and the Chargers and the faster vehicles that are out there on the streets but it's also a family vehicle so I don't like to get on it too much but it will go over a hundred miles per hour easily overall I give this a 9 out of 10 and the only reason why I don't give it a 10 it's because it gives a stupid beeping noise if you walk out of the car with the keys in your pocket and it's running and it's done that to me many a times

I can understand Ford not wanting to put an exhaust on the ST that would rattle the neighbors windows as they do have to cater to the family market more,

Little or no road noise inside the vehicle.

Especially the noise from the wheel arches at a speed above 80 km per hour, I also constantly hear another whistling sound from the side of the passenger door, and the trunk is very noisy, all this greatly lowers the level of comfort and I don't even want to ride this car on the highway as my ears are starting to paw from the noise and hum.

The upgraded brakes and 21 inch rims and tires eat up the road with ease.

Just the right size for golf and bird hunting.

but I was pleasantly surprised to feel extremely comfortable with the 300 HP eco-boost engine!

Very comfortable seats for long road trips.

I'm most impressed with the comfort when towing my boat.

I absolutely love this vehicle  it is very comfortable alot of leg room just wish ford would include weather tech floor mats in all the vehicles

an amazing SUV that drives like a space ship and has 440 hp with an attractive look.

Plenty of head room and leg room for tall husband.

The comfort is amazing, has all the room I was looking for, and was surprising affordable.

Plenty of room for passengers and luggage.

I love how much room the vehicle has and is great for the family or driving around the City.

Very comfy and more room than last Explorer.

This car is  enough of boot space and easy to drive.Modes of drive are excellent and safe.Interior design is beautiful.Bucket seats are comfy and heating is good.

feature

I purchased the XLT sport package and it everything I was looking for.

One bright feature, the panoramic sunroof.

As for Android Auto I went with the technology package that has the larger display, so it's mildly frustrating Android Auto only takes up half of it.

The Explorer Limited has all the features and comfort I was looking for.

Very excited about the bells and whistles and safety features.

The comfort and amenities are everything I could ask for.

It also has many added safety features, such as Adaptive Cruise Control and blind spot warnings.

Love all the features in the vehicle and elegant appearance of the vehicle.

Love the new 2nd row seating and all of the new features.

2021 GMC Acadia

audio-system

Lastly, there is a grinding noise from day one which sounds as

But last week started showing an alert, that I need to servicing air bag system and now more often, the passenger seat don't move!

Has plenty of space for golf clubs.Love the looks inside and out ! !

We love the 3rd row option that we can use when we have 7 people or then put down for more storage space.

Great color and full of comfort features.

I love the standard safety features of blindside detection, lane settings and safety braking.

This AT4 has all the features and they work great, especially on long hoghway trips.

It is sporty yet sophisticated and lots of great features.

From all the features to all the space and comfort.

The features in this vehicle are all the best I've owned.

Exceptional onboard safety vehicle preservation features.

plenty of room ,rides very smooth, quiet interior, the first 4 cylinder car we have had and very happy with snappy take off and plenty of power on the highway

The refreshed exterior is beautiful, and the ride is super comfortable.

but my whole family loves this car
The best ride we ever had.

I have the 2021 Denali trim with all the options, it is a beautiful ride as well as the features are great, GM was offering a crazy 6,250 cash on lease or Buy for non gmc owners (came from Infiniti High End) which made me take the jump,  best decision I have made as it is very fast and ver smooth,  I love it so fsr.

but overall it’s a great ride and plenty of space for carrying our cargo.

The comfort and style of our car has surpassed our expectations as we travel to and from our destinations.

My New Acadia looks great ,  drives great ,  very comfortable, everything is excellent, my family and I are really pleased ( this is our second Acadia, the first being Denali model, the second is the Blacked out version of the AT4 .. car looks and feels fantastic.

It’s got style, it performs well, it’s comfortable and it’s affordable.

Has the comfort, luxury feel,as well as a good over 300HP get up and go!

Bought the car 2 weeks ago with only 3 miles, love the car, al leather!, comfort.

2020 Kia Soul

I have a little trouble finding the right A&#47;C setting and blower angles for consistent comfort.

Auto dual HVAC, 10.25” infotainment which you can split into (3) screens keeping an eye on nav, weather and my music, you can switch around to several different options, apple CarPlay & android, SiriusXM radio, sunroof, and remote start adds to the creature comforts as well as the UVO app that you can download to your cellphone to Auto start your car from anywhere as long as you have a connection and set the temperature as well.

Bought my 2020 Kia Soul May of 2019 had a slight fender bender October 2019 where I ran over an item hidden under leaves that was the size of a large air conditioning unit tore my bumper the wheel well and this part that goes between the engine and the radiator into my tire that had to be pried off and was damaged the auto body shop was able to get the grill fender and the wheel well

This has the good old set your temperature out of the vents and that’s what the cabin temperature will be.

Wasn't sure I would be a fan of the cvt transmission,but very smooth.Seats are comfortable than some bigger subs I set in.

Don't often have rear passengers so I wish I could shut those vents and have more up where I need it.

.. first i'm not a fan of the elongated hood, the car is 3 inches lower than the 2015, the lane detection software only works 50% of the time,

The only thing that I can be critical of is that it seems to have a lot of road noise,

failure

I have owned many makes and models of cars and whether at a dealership or other independent mechanic, I have never had to wait this long to have a car fixed (and it is even more frustrating that the reason for the repairs is consistently due to recall issues).

Still has a spare tire it's the 50 mile type 

but with good winter tires that's all you need!!

Tire sensors are defunked, Apple car play and the original system are constantly fighting to be the front runner.

Tires are wider than on a new BMW in the family! !

Larger tires, great wheels, blind spot indicator and sport shifting.

With the back seats up there is room behind them for my golf clubs and pull cart.

I tend to think the cargo space is the best value-for-dollar aspect of this

Toyota would be a better option, likely with more room.

It is a great car the trunk amazing and the space in the back is perfect for children .The drive is very smooth .

Car has a lot of leg and body room for my size.

Safety features, right size of the vehicle, cargo space, and right price.

Love the additional room and higher sitting position.

fuel

With gas prices going up, this is a big help.

It's smooth and quiet and I didn't put gas in for two weeks.

Fuel economy is way better than my ole 1.6 L w/Manuel transmission, 29-30 city and 33-35 Hwy of course it all depends on your driving habits.

Note that the gas mileage (up to 33 MPG highway) is pretty impressive for a vehicle weighing 4,000 lbs.

I love my new car it is excellent its the perfect size I love all the cool features its excellent on gas I have no complaints I love it!

I appreciate the safety tech and I'm getting excellent gas mileage

Has a good alternate manual transmission ("slap shift") type option for those who want to improve its performance and can go back and forth with the automatic, though clutch purists will not be satisfied with it

Part of the reason for that is cars have generally gotten better over the years (safer, more features, more reliable),

Thanks Kia for the amazing safety features.

The stereo sound is incredible and the car has many safety features to include LED lighting, lane keeping assist, blind spot monitoring (both visual and audible), emergency braking assist, rear cross traffic alert, and a heads-up display.

The 2020 Kia soul ex model should be held the flagship of Kia as the bigger vehicle with bigger features make kia souls a real contender on the roads a real head turner with a decent amount of pep with its 2.0 l engine that is quite responsive especially in sport mode.

but because of the safety features and reliability factor.

Bought the S model because of it's full complement of safety features.

So far I am very satisfied with the performance and all the safety features are great.

Nice entertainment package and safety features are great as well.

2020 Lincoln Aviator

brake

Then the brake making loud noise and squishy when pushed.

after the first 24 hours i experienced issues as clunky noises from the car and brake vibration, gas tank issues.

Have Brake problem, Key remote, sunglasses holder, rear hatch very noisy, exhaust noise, wind noise from windows, starter car very noisy, clunking noise under the car

And finally someone break into the car destroyed the window and the 75k car alarm didn't do anything to let me know.

All the new cars added the feature where the engine turns off at red lights, stop sign when you put your foot on the break.

The safety futures in the car are amazing, from the auto brake, the backup auto break, and the blind spot sensors, that is a plus for me especially I have had few accidents in the past, and if I have had the features in my car, I do not believe I would have had the car accidents I had 


Furthermore, the different driving moods in the new lincoln is amazing, you can feel the difference between the moods when you switch it as you drive.

camera

Engine sensor failures (3 times), AC leaks, exterior sensor failure, backup camera failure, system head unit failure, seat falling apart, interior plastic breaking (two places).

Faulty backup camera and rear air, defective windows, steering column makes loud noise after being in the heat.

Worst of all, this vehicle has had many many factory problems including camera issues and suspension issues.

Problems started in 2 days after we purchased it 
Orange peal 
Body parts misaligned 
Front bumper cracked 
Lots of electronic issues I mean a lot 
Rear view camera not working 
Screen froze up 
Seats adjusting while you driving 
Front sensory working whenever they want too
Transmission shifts hard or late 
It’s in a shop as of today so we will see what happens me and my wife love the body style and interior.

Rear camera didn’t work and nearby Lincoln dealer
Fixed the software and returned car.

1st the suspension squeaking loudly and having to be totally replaced.

In addition, the engine noise inside the cabin is ROARING loud, and suspension is so hard the side-to-side buffeting inside is extreme.

CONs- Engine noise when accelerating is a bit much, too loud at times even with a gentle accel.

The short period of time I did drive the car the passenger door started rattling.

Additionally, the ride is exceptionally smooth with no road noise.

sensor

Center console had been replaced, the sensors going crazy, and now the front strut has gone out.

There was only a small floor vent in the back, not ideal for children in cars eats.

When the outside temperature is close to the inside temperature you have to turn off the auto switch to control the heat or air , as you will either be too cold or too hot, the temperature will not adjust on auto when the inside / outside temperature are only different by 1 or 2 degrees,

Drives well in the snow and the wide tires give it a smooth ride.

Feel and sound like the tires touch the car body very bad.

Meets size and performance needs for cargo and golf and has great performance and handling with luxurious interior The exterior and trim make a nice package

lots of room for a good road trip with golf clubs, dog, and luggage with rear seats down.

The comfort options make it a joy to drive especially on longer trips.

Excellent road car, quiet, stable, comfortable to the highest level, good technology, handles snow very well, great options, excellent towing capacity.

but also very comfortable with some amenities.

The Lincoln Aviator is high on comfort and gives a quiet, smooth ride.

I chose the Aviator on tech, safety, comfort, and price.

Love comfort style features of vehicle just disappointed with reliability.

Met our needs for room and comfort and traveling to visit our children and friends in Georgia and for hauling furniture and small items around town

We purchased a Lincoln Aviator after much research and many test rides of other competitive SUVs and the Aviator checked all the boxes for us .  . ride, cabin quietness, pick up, seat comfort, easy to use controls, audio.

The multiple built in safety features give the driver a sense of confidence on the road.

although the price is comparable, the technology features included in the pricing make the Aviator a great purchase.

Other than that I love the car and features.

interior

The interior is spacious and luxurious, and I went with the 30 way power seats, which is basically like getting a custom fit glove for your body.

25+mpg highway, well laid out interior, massage seats are amazing, roomy inside, 3rd row seats not made for large adults, plenty of room for storage even with all 3 rows in use.

Quality, performance, looks, materials, space, interior - it has it all.

bottomline inside and out the Aviator is a tremendous value.

It is a gorgeous car and the interior is a show stopper.

Nicely styled, beautiful interior, very comfortable seats .

Love the interior and the great gas mileage.

The Aviator is hands down much more attractive than al of the competition inside and out.

Overall I believe it beats any other vehicle of its class, looks amazing, quick, and interior is very nice.

2020 Chevrolet Colorado

I complained to the dealership about the vibration and ask for warranty work and they said it’s not a warranty problem.

but has a problem with the transmission.When I purchased it there was a loud noise coming from what I thought was the engine.I returned the vehicle to the service Dept.They checked the vehicle and informed me that the noise  is coming from the transmission.They also told that it is normal and if gets worse to return to the service dept.Not Happy.

but problems dash making noise transmission jumping going down the highway motor and transmission jumping.

Could have some power if the transmission wasn't so terrible.

Paint issue not taken care of after dealership was advised
Transmission issues several times
Stereo reminds me of the cars bought in early 70's .music completed your riding exp .

Truck is very sporty and strong     Drives very smooth  love the features and the body style and tires that makes the truck sporty   Interior is very comfortable for the family to ride and take road trips

Purchasing bigger tires and rims outside.

I really like the Z71 with the bigger tires it has a great look to it.

It has a 6 foot long bed and enough room behind the front seat for my golf clubs.

And absolutely love this truck, it is very comfortable and fun to drive, not to mention,The off road capability, I take it on the desert trails and drive it like a side x side the multimatic suspension is phenomenal and the front and rear locking differential in four wheel low allows you to climb any trail I was very impressed.

Other than that perfect enough room good ride just would like more comfy seats.

Comfy smooth ride , gas fill up is low , strong v6 engine, has nice power to the engine !

Nice leg room, good front site lines, comfortable ride good pickup, good looking truck,  I will be very pleased with this truck.

Really like front seating positions that allows comfortable  use of arm rests while hands on wheel.

Overall it is a great truck, ju missing a few comforts
