    Of all brends, in Skoda? I thought they are promoted as a reliable budget carmaker. That’s idiotic.

      They are part of VAG so kind of a meh brand imo, it’s only good if you are in a country with lots of Skodas so you have access to cheap parts. I prefer Hyundai/Kia though I know they have a terrible reputation in the USA, they often top reliability in Europe.

        A member in VAG is great and all but if your quality control isn’t effective and you start slipping, pretty soon you’ll really be in the shit.
