New CARFAX data shows consumers with full-size SUVs are more likely to need repairs within the next 12 months than any other vehicle segment.
According to CARFAX, full-size SUVs have the highest likelihood for repairs at 25 percent with an average estimated cost of $330. Additional findings from their CARFAX Reliability and Repair predictions indicate that midsize pickups are the least likely to need repairs within a year and and full-size cars have the lowest average repair cost.
CARFAX Reliability and Repair Costs are part of the Vehicle Research Pages for consumers on the CARFAX website. Instead of relying on surveys, CARFAX bases its predictions on the analysis of more than 27 billion vehicle history records in its database.
"No one wants to be left stranded on the side of the road with a broken-down vehicle," said Travis Lewis, head of product at CARFAX. "For years, we've helped consumers and dealers understand the repair history for their vehicles. Now, our unique data and capabilities let us take things a step further. We're providing car shoppers with insights that help them better understand how reliable a car will be in the future."
