BMW 2-Series Lemon Odds and Nada Odds

Other sources of BMW 2-Series reliability information provide only averages, which can conceal as much as they reveal. So we also report the percentage of BMW 2-Seriess with no repairs at all in the past year and the percentage of BMW 2-Seriess that are lemons (required three or more repair trips in the past year). These figures might surprise you.

These stats are promptly updated four times a year, to closely track BMW 2-Series lemon odds as the cars age. Others can be over a year behind. Only TrueDelta tells you how reliable the BMW 2-Series has been recently.

To some, this is important. BMW, however good their cars might be, conjures up images of lawyers, trophy wives, and young hotshots who inherited their father's estate. I think I can make a fairly accurate assumption that most customers buy BMWs for reasons other than their unrivaled driving dynamics. I know some, who would never be caught driving a BMW due to that very reason. Doesn't bother me much, and the M badge also adds an air of seriousness to the vehicle. see full BMW 2-Series review
