It's interesting to compare this US survey with this one from a 2015 UK survey of 50,000 car users.
In summary, Japanese cars were deemed the most reliable and relatively cheap to maintain, while German cars were the least reliable according to the survey's respondents.
The rankings were calculated according to how often a car needed to be repaired, and the cost of the repairs.

- joe_the_user 10y agoI can't see how any of these lists could be at all useful. Each manufacturer produces a variety of models and the reliability of each model can vary by the year. If you want to buy a car, look at the model-years in your price range and then research which of those is reliable or a lemon.
