From your own posts/threads, your wife simply wanted another Pacifica.

If the Odyssey had the same features the Pacifica had, she would have been fine with an Odyssey. Look at Odyssey forums though and ratings, they are almost as problematic as the Pacifica.

My wife doesn't care what kind of car she drives, she wants a car to check certain boxes. Odyssey didn't check them. She hates the unreliability of the Pacifica too.

Nissan's have always not had great engines, but what's in common with Infiniti, Honda, Subaru, and Acura? Force induction

Whaaaat. The VQ was one of the best V6s ever made and way ahead of its time. It lasted for decades because it was so good and super reliable.

Yeah, OK I'll give you that

Apparently those engine fires aren't as widespread as the media would have you believe. Kia, Hyundai, and Genesis are #1, 3, and 4 in this ranking....in that order.

Hyundai's still have a few quality issues. Last night my wife's 2020 Ioniq's passenger window jammed up and wouldn't close. This morning I was able to apply some pressure and get it to fully close, but if we open it again it will jam up. I scheduled an appointment with Hyundai, and they don't have any openings until end of March LOL. I'm going to end up taking it to my local mechanic to look at to see if he can fix

With the window down and open, have you tried spraying the window-channel grooves to lubricate them some with silicone? That might work. If not, then the window-glass itself might need some work.

Recalls have never correlated with reliability, this is nothing surprising.

I think it's the mechanism inside that broke or needs replacing. I can feel the window is a little lose so I don't think lubricant will work in this case

Considering that Hyundai/Kia/Genesis have been recalling vehicles for potential fires every year since 2012 I will take the results of this survey with a grain of salt.

So is Lexus. Double the amt of problems.

Engine fires are a perk and people are just using it wrong as the late Steve Jobs would have said. Spontaneous roasting of marshmallows. Just keep a bag of sticks and puffy sugar nearby. If u are fancy, some hersheys chocolate will do.

The same could be said of winner Kia, as well as Porsche, and Toyota and pretty much every automaker. Last year #1 had 81 PPV, this year #1 is 145 PPV.

That's an interesting point. But it also begs the question of what these "problems" actually consisted of. There's already been a lot of discussion about the difference between a minor issue on a touch-screen and an engine or transmission failing, leaving one stranded.
