True, but any '13 that's driving around now with a decent mileage is probably okay. However judging the overall reliability on the '13 vs other years I dont think there is that much a difference.

I do think that the quality control on the '13s is not as consistent vs other years. Some 13's just seem to have issues vs mine which has been great for about 6 years and over 80k with no problems (except TOB). If a '13 is over 50k I'd wager it is probably just as reliable over its total life as any other year.
