The ADAC breakdown statistics determine which Ford models are the most reliable and which have broken down most – a good help when buying a used Ford Ka.
In the statistics for 2023, all the breakdowns for which the German Yellow Angels had to move out in 2012 were recorded and evaluated. There is enough data available that gives an objective picture of the reliability of the Ford Ka.
