Are ford more reliable than a Nissan maxima or toyota corolla / Camry?

Reliable as in less mechanical and lyrical problems and reliable on glass and cheap fix if something goes wrong and less recall

All car manufacturers have their good models, and they have each had some bad ones. Look at it this way, every car dealership no matter what the make or model has a garage attached to it. They All break down! It really all boils down to personal choice. Take the car you are interested in getting and do a Google search on reviews for that type of car and see what others who own one have to say. If you are interested in say a "2004, Ford Focus" look up "2004 Ford Focus Reviews" and see what people have to say… Good and bad. Then make a decision.

No, a Camry is your best bet. I would not be caught in a ford. The million mile car is the civic and the Honda but the Toyota is just as good. I see people still selling them at over 1k with over 300miles on it and there still getting snatched up. I love cars and do a lot of useless research on this kind of thing. Buy a Toyota you can always find someone who would buy it from you. Nissan a great cusion sort of to speak. Lots of them still going around. Parts are too easy to find.
