I have had 5 Mazda’s and never one problem with any of them.
They’ve got my vote. However, my ‘04 Tacoma’s paint job is in pretty bad shape.
Ram above "Fix Or Repair Daily" is a surprise.
Where’s Tesla?
I’ve had good experiences with Toyotas so maybe I did something right.
Buick essentially TIES with Toyota?
Seems very suspect.
One thing about Chrysler: they have many offering in the muscle car tier.
i have to laugh at wretched Audi down there with the chisler junk.
most over-hyped cars ever.
Not surprising. My wife’s Toyota Sienna has over 314,000 and still runs great. A half axle broke, but it was a replacement part that broke, not a Toyota part.
How Chevy near the top and GMC near the bottom when they are they same vehicle?
Every time Jeep changed hands, its reliability went down. So I’m surprised Jeep ranked as high as it did (average).
“Toyota Tops Most Dependable Brands...”
Pretty easy thing to do, since they don’t sell EVs to speak of.
Thus as it ever was.
Have never ever owned a Chrysler - now Fiat (Fix It Again Tony) - product in my life. I have friends who have sworn by them but hey, that’s their opinion.
I’ve had Beemers, Hyundais, Mitsubishis, Hondas, VWs, Toyotas, and Fords. Honestly the Fords have been great (okay, the Hyundai was great too - I beat the hell out of it and it just kept running and running). But I’m a Ford guy now. My twelve year old Escape keeps cranking. Next vehicle will be another Ford, either an Edge or an Explorer.
I love my Nissans. I lease now, but the last Altima I bought brand new was their 2005 model, purchased in the spring of 2006.. It never broke down on the road, or out-of-State. Never left me stranded. Besides regular oil changes, replacement batteries, new tires/tire rotations, and required yearly State inspections, the only expensive repair I had in all that time was the A/C compressor that died a couple of years before I traded it in. It still had the original muffler and exhaust system on it when I traded it in for a leased Nissan in 2019.
Ranked ratings like this are flawed because they don’t distinguish between serious issues which affect the functionality or safety of the vehicle, and annoyance issues which don’t.
One of the biggest “problem areas” (49.1 problems per 100 vehicles) is infotainment systems, primarily problems with voice control and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity problems.
I wonder what the ratings would look like if this one area was deleted from the totals.
Blame technology for the problems. Driving a new car sucks with all the shxt they put in them.
I remember putting a key in the ignition, start and go. Now it’s keyless, has to boot up or download and reboot has so many F’n sensors for lane assist, adaptive cruise control, collision avoidance, back up cameras and auto stop, hands free driving all for idiots who shouldn’t be in a car because they can’t drive, navigation systems cause most of the dumb f’s can’t read a map or know where they’re going.
They’ll be driving with the virtual headsets next.
I miss the 60s and 70s... muscle cars and fun.
Son has a large family, Ford 15 passenger van, circa 2010 model. Wouldn’t start last week, got towed to dealer. Mechanics telling him fuel pump and control board. $1950 out the door cost.
Outrageous. Ford must be making up for their EV losses on service $$$.
Buick and Chevy are in front of pretty much everybody.
And Jeep is doing pretty well.
