Consumer Reports has released its small-car reliability survey. Taking the number three spot in the ranking was the Honda Civic. Above it in the ranking were the Scion xB in first and the Toyota Yaris in second. The Scion xB scored an impressive 81-percent more reliable than the average car.
At the other end of the spectrum the Chevrolet Cruz and the Ford Fiesta. But the worst car on the list was the Fiat 500L which was 219 percent less reliable than the average car. Ouch! Stay away from that car.

Here's what Consumer Reports had to say about the Honda Civic:
Now I realize this isn't the 10th generation Civic that they are talking about, but you have to figure that it spells good things for the 10th-gen Civic.In both coupe and sedan body styles, the Civic shines for predicted reliability. In fact, it has a distinct advantage over several key rivals with enviable, long-running reliability track records. Plus, the Civic is roomy, with a comfortable ride, generous standard equipment, and outstanding fuel economy. It does concede some handling acumen and noise dampening to its peers, and the infotainment system can be exasperating. But there is a clear reward for accepting those trade-offs.
