QUESTION
Which SUV has the least problems?
If you want an SUV that tends to have the fewest problems, a good general answer is Toyota/Lexus. Models that are often strong on reliability include the Toyota RAV4, Toyota Highlander, and Lexus RX. Mazda CX-5 and Honda CR-V are also commonly considered dependable choices.
That said, there isn’t one SUV that is always the absolute least problematic every year. Reliability can vary by model year, powertrain, and maintenance history, so the exact SUV and trim you buy matters a lot. If you’re shopping used, check the specific year’s reliability ratings and get a pre-purchase inspection from an independent mechanic.
