My girlfriend wants a Bronco sport , I keep trying to steer here away from it because of how unreliable the 1.5 3 cylinder is.

I told her if she wants one to try and save up a bit more and get a badlands that has the 2.0 engine because it’s much more reliable and has been around a long time

She keeps saying she doesn’t want that high of a trim level and even told me “ then why do they keep selling the car if it’s not good??? “

How do I explain it to her??? I don’t want her spending the money on a car just for the engine to go out at 50k miles

Im a ford guy till death but even I know the 3 cylinder engines are trash
