Drove a 1989 Lincoln Mark VII in high school around 2009 or so. Pretty crappy but I do miss that car

Never had a car in the shop. '91 Camry from my g-parents in '99 (wrecked 2 months later). Single cab Chevy 1500, probably a '93, no problems. '01 Trans Am, stolen in NOLA in 2011 while I was at Jazzfest. Have a 2011 Camaro that has only had only oil changes and it's paid off.

97 Tahoe

Transmission failed
Air Conditioner Compressor seized
Rear Window Heat Failed
Alternator Failed
Intake Manifold Gasket Replaced
Windshield Wiper Circuit Board Failed (Twice)
Driver Power Seat Motor Failed
Passenger Side Inside Door Handle Broke
EVO Steering Sensor replaced.

All occurred under 40K and was covered by warranty. Add, everything that was fixed except the WW Circuit Board has worked since. It started out as a POS, eventually turned into a pretty nice driver once they got the bugs worked out of it.

I live Ford and currently own a 2014 F150.

But the shittiest was my 1995 F150 from highschool.

The best vehicles I've own was every single Toyota. My 4Runner and Tacoma both hit 200K with no issues. Not a dam 1. I still see my old 2004 Tacoma being driven around my home town. Still going strong.

Probably my current one. A 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee, I swear to you my model from 10 years ago was a far better car even if it didn't have leather. I swear cars made in this country just get more and more shitty. I will never buy a Chevy thanks to Potsch Boyd (the douchiest name of all time), so I'm thinking of given the Axis of Evil cars a go next time around.
