Toyota and Honda are the most reliable brands, and they don't sell many electric vehicles. Once you factor that out, you can't draw any conclusions on whether electric cars are more reliable than gasoline cars.
I find their detailed reports really valuable and use them often before big purchases. It’s $40/yr and I definitely save that much by not going with my gut or asking on Reddit.
Recent example: with their analysis, I found that the Kobalt $300 lawnmower will more than meet my needs; I don’t need the $500 DeWalt lawnmower.

"E-cars are above average Defects in the braking function detected. One reason for this is the recuperation with which electric vehicles can recover braking energy. The brake pads are used less frequently, which can impair the braking performance. Another weak point of many electric cars are Axis suspensions. These often suffer from the high weight of the batteries."
Anyway, I was hoping to see what specifically was the problems other than generic "charging problems". Like which make+model and what kind of "charging problem" was it. Simple like the app failed or really complex like the charger unit needed to be replaced.
Teslas are notorious for cabin problems/cheapness, but their drive train has way less complaints. So I'd like to see how they fair.
