Imagine Phoenix Arizona in July, the mercury pushing the 120 degree mark, and you, sweat dripping from your forehead, as you attempt an auto repair or wait for roadside assistance on a dangerous highway shoulder.\u00a0 Any Phoenix Arizona resident who has been in this situation knows the importance of reliability as a factor to seriously take into account when considering a new or used vehicle.<\/p>\n

For the convenience of our\u00a0 Phoenix Arizona readers, we have compiled a list of the top five most consistently reliable automotive brands for both new and used vehicles.\u00a0 They are as follows:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 Honda:\u00a0 Honda vehicles have one of the highest reliability factors in the industry.\u00a0 While a civic or an accord may seem an obvious choice for a reliable used vehicle, the Honda Odyssey deserves a shutout as the consistently most reliable minivan on the market in the past decade.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0 Subaru:\u00a0 This brand has a reputation of running strong until the very bitter end.\u00a0 Many long time owners of a Subaru will tell you that it ran strong for the first few hundred thousand miles, until the odometer stopped working, and then kept going after that.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0 Mitsubishi:\u00a0 Due to a bad reputation for the Gallant’s braking system, among some other defects over the years, Mitsubishi has suffered a good deal of earned and deserved criticism and skepticism concerning real reliability.\u00a0 Yet, the facts are what they are, and a Mitsubishi owner is far less likely to experience a problem with their vehicle than most other car owners.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0 Lexus:\u00a0 Lexus enjoys the reputation of being a stand alone reliability powerhouse in the area of the affordable luxury car.\u00a0 This car’s luxury and long lasting quality are the reason that a fifteen year old model still demands a high blue book price.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0 Toyota:\u00a0 While the brand suffered an image blow due to a mass recall in the last year, the fact is that Toyota, overall, is still one of the safest bets for any consumer.\u00a0 This is especially true if one is looking to buy an older model.<\/p>\n

Craigslist.com is a great place to search for new and used vehicles, and of course a prospective new or used car owner can stop by any of the Phoenix Valley dealerships for the brands listed above.<\/p>\n
