How to read this

Averages describe the model — the VIN describes the car

Annual-cost and reliability figures come from independent repair data aggregated across many vehicles. They are a strong way to compare one model against another, but a single Chrysler 300 can cost far more if it was neglected, wrecked, or has an open recall. Use the estimate to shortlist, then confirm the specific car with its VIN.
