When shopping for used cars, buyers tend to care the most about price, fuel economy and reliability, because, well, duh. You need to be able to afford your car, you don’t want to spend a fortune filling it up and you just want it to work. Unfortunately, with used cars, you probably won’t have much of a warranty left, if any, so you’re taking a risk that you wouldn’t if you went for a new car.
To help you figure out where to look and how times have changed — or maybe haven’t — our friends at Consumer Reports put together a list of the brands that make the most reliable used cars. This data comes from owners who participated in CR’s annual survey and own cars that are between five and ten years old. Let’s take a look at which brands made the list.
