'If you wanna save your money, get something else. Let's get straight to it,' Keshawn began.

Launching into his recommendations, he dished: 'First on the list we've got this raggedy a** Dodge Hornet.

'It's like every other Jeep. It's known to have electrical problems. 

'People reported their dashes randomly going blank [and that] cruise control never works. 

'The name definitely fits it, because this s**t will string the hell out of your wallet. Save your money - get something else.'

The cost of a brand new Dodge Hornet starts at $32,995 and goes up to $37,995 - depending on the trim and options, according to reports.

Reputable vehicle review site Car and Driver gave the new Dodge Hornet a rating of 7.5 out of 10 but did still identify some issues.

It stated that the 'lows' for the vehicle were that 'rear passengers will feel squeezed, the cargo bay isn't as roomy as rival SUVs, design is a little too similar to the Alfa Romeo Tonale.'

Next up on his list of brand new cars to avoid was the Chevy Malibu, with costs starting at $26,195, saying: 'This s**t is wack. 

'I'm driving one right now as a rental and the Apple CarPlay system keeps glitching out, the automatic light system keeps not working and this thing is extremely underpowered. 

'Like I'm talking about, I can't even try to merge on the freeway. I'm almost getting smacked and s**t.

'I'd stay away from it. There's really no reason to buy it. Get something different. Save your money.'

And it seems that Car and Driver experts agreed, giving the vehicle a score of only six out of 10.

Among the issues listed were 'subpar interior materials, weak standard features list, middling powertrain.'

Next up on his list of cars to avoid, Keshawn explained: 'We got the Chevy Malibu (pictured), and this s**t is wack' 

Last but not least, the third car the expert suggested avoiding is the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid (pictured)

Last but not least, the third car the expert suggested avoiding is the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid - which comes with a hefty starting price tag of $41,095.

'I've been telling you guys the Chrysler Pacifica is not a good vehicle, but they made a Hybrid and made it even worse,' the content creator said.

'The battery stays failing and no one knows if it's the battery's issue or if it's a software issue. 

'You're better off just driving this car into the Pacific Ocean.  I'd be p**sed if I had all my kids in the car and the battery stopped working.'

But, contrastingly, the new Chrysler Pacifica scored an eight out of 10 from reviewers at Car and Driver.

It focused largely on the plus points which argued that it is 'the only van that offers both gas and plug-in power... keeps Chrysler brand on the map.'

And dozens of viewers took to the comments to share their own thoughts

Keshawn captioned the clip: 'Avoid these new cars and get something else and save your money.' 

And dozens of viewers took to the comments to share their own thoughts.

'Chevy Malibu is nothing but facts,' one wrote.

Another shared: 'I had the Hornet pulled off the dealership showroom floor for me to test drive and it broke down on the salesman and I... as I was driving it. Quickest nope of my life.'

And a third added: 'Agree on the Chevy Malibu.' 

In the clip, which has so far been viewed more than 450,000 times, Keshawn speaks directly to camera from his desk.

He begins: 'Here's a list of some brand new cars that I would never buy at the dealership and I don't recommend for you.
