13:04 Conclusion: protect your next trade-in
Falling sales can affect more than a brand's balance sheet. In this video, I examine five car brands under pressure in the U.S. and the ownership risks to consider before buying in 2027.
I look at Mitsubishi's dealer coverage, Jaguar's electric transition, Cadillac's EV exposure, Polestar's regulatory challenges and Jeep's sales decline. I explain how service access, parts availability, warranties and depreciation can affect the deal behind the discount.
I also share practical checks: looking up open recalls, confirming local service support, comparing used prices and reading a lease's residual value. The risks differ by brand and model; a sales decline alone does not mean bankruptcy.
