A side-by-side used-car reliability comparison built from NHTSA recall data, owner complaints, safety ratings, and curated known issues.
CarScorer take
The 2016 Ford Fusion and 2016 Kia Optima score evenly on public data — the right pick comes down to the specific listing, mileage, and price.
Reliability score is a model-level estimate from public NHTSA data and known-issue severity — not a per-listing deal score. Score a specific VIN for a full breakdown.
