Default Warranty Direct

The list has been compiled for the number of warranty claims made against cars over the past 10 years. No S2000 but still interesting reading.

There are no S2000's on it because they have never paid out on a claim on one I'll bet.

They certainly took my money quickly enough before refusing a legitimate claim.


'Warranty Direct' and ..'reliability' in the same sentence ?...now that's ironic.

The article is a little misleading. The index is not one of which car breaks down the most often, but is a combination of breakdown frequency and average repair cost.

I remember reading about this a little while ago, and although the Boxster isn't the least reliable car out there, it has the highest average repair cost of any car in the index, hence its poor performance.

It also covers the last decade, so some newer models are going to be brought down by their less-than-perfect predecessors.
