08 ENGINE DISASTERS in production car history
People often share their positive experiences with reliable cars, but rarely talk about poor decisions. With cars, you often don’t realize it's bad until it's too late. What starts as exciting can quickly turn into a disaster, especially when dealing with significant engine trouble. Here are 8 engines to avoid due to inherent flaws:
01:08 Triumph V8: Triumph, a defunct English automaker, created a flawed V8 for their Stag model. The engine design led to overheating and difficult repairs, resulting in many owners replacing it with alternative engines.
03:12 Cadillac V8-6-4: Cadillac's 1981 V8-6-4 engine aimed to improve fuel efficiency by deactivating cylinders, but the technology was unreliable, leading to poor performance and dissatisfied customers.
05:05 Oldsmobile Diesel: Oldsmobile's attempt to create a diesel engine based on their gasoline V8 resulted in a loud, unreliable engine that frequently failed, leading to lawsuits and the establishment of lemon laws.
06:55 GM 3.6 High Feature Engine: Used in various GM models, this engine had issues with timing chain wear from 2007 to 2010, causing engine failures if not addressed promptly.
08:31 Jaguar V12: Jaguar's V12 engine, found in models like the XJ-S, was complex and difficult to repair, with a problematic cooling system and unreliable electrical components.
10:32 Cadillac Northstar V8: Introduced in 1993, the Northstar V8 faced issues with head gaskets due to stretching head bolts, leading to costly repairs and coolant leaks.
12:52 Chrysler 2.7 V6: From 1998 to 2007, this engine suffered from sludge buildup due to a poorly designed water pump, leading to engine failures and expensive repairs.
14:57 Ford Triton 5.4: Found in millions of Ford trucks, this engine had issues with sludge buildup, cam phaser problems, and spark plug failures, leading to costly repairs.
These engines are known for inherent design flaws and complex, expensive repairs, making them some of the worst on the road.
