MODERATORS
Many other studies have said the opposite of what CR says, so not sure it's worth what it looks like. They're also considering non-dangerous recalls as a failure, for example the slow acceleration in eco mode on the Hyundai Ioniq 5 (which I considered a fantastic feature) would be a "problem" under the consumer reports methodology.
Tesla was considered absolute bottom of the pack in a Which? report https://www.autonoid.com/which-ev-owners-survey-ranks-tesla-bottom-for-reliability/ and https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-least-reliable-ev-brand-uk-survey-2022-3, with 2/5ths of Teslas having major problems and 1 in 20 failing to start! How in the world did CR get the complete opposite data and actually recommend a car that could fail to start.
Clearly there's something wrong with how all of these reliability surveys are occurring, if they're getting completely opposite data.
tesla 3rd from bottom in reliability while Kia and Hyundai are at the top
What is very clear from looking at all these surveys is that American brands are absolutely terrible for reliability. Every single one of the surveys ranks American cars far below European or Asian cars, with many incredibly dangerous recalls for things like failure to start, losing power while driving, airbags failing to deploy or deploying at the wrong time (like when a child is in the seat), loose subframe bolts, and tesla has had so many that it's not even worth sourcing them at this point. just go look up all the dangerous tesla recalls.
