6 VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG
This German automobile has been in production since 2002. The car is named after the nomadic people from North Africa who are known to explore the desert. According to Car Complaints, the 2007 model is the one that has had the highest number of problems and complaints, although there were problems reported with the 2012 model as well.
The biggest problem with the Volkswagen Touareg is the EPC warning light which can cost over $5,000 to fix. This is not a cost you’d want to incur, especially if you are buying a used vehicle. The second most commonly reported problem has to do with fuel pump failure which will set you back around $11,000 for the newer models. Unless you have a lot of money in the bank, this is not a vehicle you should be buying second hand.
