Toyota Avalon Reliability

Want to more clearly know what the difference in reliability will be if you buy a Toyota Avalon rather than another vehicle? Concerned about your chances of getting a lemon?

TrueDelta provides this information in the form of "times in the shop" stats that make the actual repair rates clear and, in the future, "lemon-odds."

The latest Car Reliability Survey (CRS) results include Toyota Avalon reliability information based on owner experiences through June 30, 2010:

To provide comprehensive results, TrueDelta needs reliability data on all cars--not just the Toyota Avalon--from people like you. To encourage participation, those who help provide the data receive free access to the site's car reliability information. Find out the details.

Toyota Avalon Repair Histories

To supplement our Car Reliability Survey, TrueDelta collects Toyota Avalon repair histories, a list of all the repairs that have been performed on a vehicle. With these, no minimum sample is required and owners can report repairs that occurred before joining.

Individual responses to both the Car Reliability Survey and the Car Repair History Survey are posted here:

Toyota Avalon Gas Mileage

Everyone knows that government estimates often aren't indicative of the Toyota Avalon's gas mileage in the real-world.

In response, TrueDelta began collecting gas mileage data from owners of the Toyota Avalon, with the intent of providing real-world gas mileage estimates customized to how and where you drive.

"Why (Not) the Toyota Avalon?" Reviews

For car buyers' reasons for buying a Avalon--or not--click here.

Want another perspective? Since 1999, Michael Karesh, the developer of TrueDelta, has contributed reviews to Epinions, where he is one of two people who oversee the autos section.

Michael's most recent Toyota Avalon review.

Note: The older the review, the more likely it has become outdated owing to more recently introduced competitors.

Toyota Avalon Tire Reviews

The Tire Rack offers the Internet's most extensive collection of Toyota Avalon tire reviews, tire survey results, and tire tests. To see which tires are available for the Toyota Avalon--or for your car--and go from there to Tire Rack's comprehensive information, use the tool in the sidebar.

The Tire Rack can be especially useful as a source of winter tires, which I have strongly recommended ever since buying a set for my car. If you're unhappy with your car's handling and braking on snow and ice, you probably just need proper winter tires, not a new car.
