J.D Powers rates Yaris as Toyota's least reliable car

[tuckevalastin]

Just because they rate the Yaris badly they are a joke? In fact not even badly just worse than other Toyotas...


I would hope that the least reliable Toyota would be the cheapest car they make. If I paid for a more expensive model and it was less reliable then I wouldn't be very happy with Toyota.

That makes a lot of sense.

Although I'm hoping to have a few less issues because I don't have any of those fancy power options like power/remote locks/windows. One less thing to break haha (although the convenience might be nice on rainy days fumbling around with the keys)

But as has also been said, they may be at the low end of Toyota, but Toyota is at the high end of everything else. Worst of the Best is still better than Best of the Worst.

Bullshit! They were passing a bong around and nostalgically thinking of Yugo...

You're right. But - I still reckon they are jokes because it seems there is very little real objective work done by CR to come to their conclusions. JD Power at least seems to do some kind of survey, but still comes to strange conclusions.
