Broken Down Cars March 2025

Whenever Beth and I take a road trip, we record the makes of the cars we see broken down beside the highway. We update after every trip and will continue to do so as we travel...As of the date in the title the totals were : Chevrolet/GMC -138 Dodge/Jeep- 75 Ford- 76 Honda/Acura- 38 Toyota/Lexus- 27 Nissan/Infiniti-28 Subaru-10 VW-9 Kia/Hyundai-16 Mazda- 7 Mitsubishi-5 BMW-5 Suzuki-2 Volvo-1 Also 5 unidentified vehicles of which we could not determine the manufacturer. This is by no means a scientifically accurate indication of the reliability of these brands, because we do not know the age and maintenance records of the broken cars and other important information; generally speaking, foreign cars have a much better reliability record than domestic vehicles, and that pattern shows up in our informal observations.
