    Prius (Prime) PHEV shines at the pinnacle of reliability, but most other PHEVs rank rock-bottom in the reliability list. Ford Escape PHEV and many others have numerous issues, such as being bricked. One owner had her vehicle bricked for six months.

    Meanwhile, gas-only HEVs shine in reliability.
