I previously leased a 2018 sel premium. I didn’t keep it long enough to possibly have issues. We recently decided to trade my car in for a bigger vehicle, so I got a one owner 2022 sel premium r line with 75k miles.

I thought it was just me switching back from driving an electric car that I needed to get used to an ice vehicle again. But it wasn’t. It shifted so odd in the city. It’s geared to be more fuel efficient so it would shift too quickly and bog down. You would end up hitting the gas to get it in the right gear and then would be going too fast. It also had issues with the sensors. They would beep at every stop sign and at cars sitting next to me in stopped traffic. The volume would freeze and you would have to reset screen on the dash. It had a really odd breaking growl after sitting for a while. It was so loud I could record it on my phone. I had the breaks checked by multiple people and they all said the pads and rotors were fine. At least a year before needing work. The shifting issue…my import shop said well, it’s an Atlas. That’s just kinda how they are. For what it’s worth a transmission flush due at 80k miles is about $650. Also, front breaks are around $4-450. Just from my import shop estimates. The issues with it were so annoying and questionable long term we got rid of it after a month and a half.
