The Six Best Unreliable Cars You Can Buy From CarMax - Jalopnik
Ladies and gentlemen, the day has come: it's time for a new list of unreliable CarMax cars. And CarMax is probably going to raise the warranty prices on each of these by 50 percent the moment they see this list. For those of you who don't know what the hell I'm talking about, allow me to explain: about two years ago, I purchased a used 2006 Range Rover – a vehicle with roughly the same durability as disposable contact lenses – from nationwide used car... While I was buying it, I discovered that CarMax offers a long, bumper-to-bumper warranty on any car in its inventory. The result has been exactly as you'd expect: although I'm only two years and two months into my warranty, CarMax has already paid out $6,149. 03 in claims – or roughly 57 percent more than the warranty cost to buy. And now you, too, can join in the fun with your own CarMax warranty, which I highly recommend on the following exciting and unusual unreliable used cars. As every Porsche enthusiast knows, the "996" 911 model – made from 1999 to 2004 – has a severe engine issue with the intermediate shaft, or IMS, that results in catastrophic engine failure without warning. Although such a failure can be expensive, buying this 996 with a CarMax warranty means you don't have to take the risk: just pony up a few grand for MaxCare and drive along without a care in the world. ) He worked as a manager for Porsche Cars North America before quitting to become a writer, largely because it meant he no longer.
