Motor vehicles have come a long way in dependability and safety since the first Ford Model T (widely considered to be the first mass-produced affordable car) rolled off a Detroit assembly line on October 1, 1908.<\/span><\/p>\n

As recently as the 1970s, it was common for car owners to encounter major repair bills before hitting 100,000 miles on their odometers. Today, a standard, properly maintained and unabused car can drive double that distance without significant problems. (That doesn\u2019t mean all current models are trouble-free. <\/span>These new cars are the most likely to break down<\/span>.)<\/span><\/p>\n

The 2021 vehicle-dependability study by J.D. Power shows this trend in improved dependability continues for all types of luxury and non-luxury cars, SUVs, and light trucks sold in the United States, with Japanese and Korean automakers making a particularly strong showing, taking six places in the top ten. The study specifically called out Kia for showing considerable improvement over 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vehicle-segment leaders in the study include Volkswagen Beetle and Lexus ES compacts, Kia Optima and Genesis G80 mid-size sedans, Toyota Avalon full-size sedan, BMW 2 Series small sedan, and Chevrolet Camaro sports car. (These are <\/span>the longest-lasting cars on the road<\/span>.)<\/span><\/p>\n

All eight of the problem categories tracked by the study showed improvement, especially with exterior-related problems and issues with driving experience. However, only marginal improvement has been made to an ongoing issue in most passenger vehicles: their audio, communication, entertainment, and navigation systems. Simply put, automakers have thus far been unable to match the software and features found in modern smartphones.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To determine the most and least dependable car brands, 24\/7 Wall St. reviewed the 2021 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study by the data analytics and consumer intelligence firm <\/span>J.D. Power<\/span>. The study measures the number of problems per 100 vehicles experienced during the previous 12 months by original owners of three-year-old vehicles. The study covers 177 specific problems grouped into eight major vehicle categories: audio\/communication\/entertainment\/navigation; engine\/transmission; exterior; interior; features\/controls\/displays; driving experience; heating\/ventilation\/air conditioning; and seats. The lower the score the higher the dependability.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n
