The Consumer Speaks --
Who Makes the Most Reliable Vehicles?
Every pricing page
on vmrintl.com has a link that gives users the opportunity to
sound off about their car. This survey has been filled out
by thousands of consumers, allowing us to present you with data
supported by a large sample of ownership experiences. These are
actual results, and there are
some surprises!
Rankings are based
on receiving an "excellent" or "very good" overall rating with no problem areas. Keep in
mind that this is a high standard--basically a car that
rarely needs anything other than scheduled service. We'll
further break down the results in the weeks to come, including
ownership costs, overall satisfaction, and full reliability
ranking with specific problem areas, so check back often.
Data covers all models and model years back to 2000. We'll
take a look at older models, too.
