Jimmy Kimmel has been selected as the late-night talk show host that car owners would most trust to work on their car. Kimmel acknowledged his win during his monologue on his April 3 show.

Kimmel thanked America for the honor, telling his audience how flattered he was to receive the recognition and discussed how he once rebuilt the master cylinder on his 1981 Mazda. He noted that if Jay Leno had been part of the survey, Leno would have received 100 percent.

The survey, conducted for the Car Care Council by IMR Inc., an automotive market research company, polled over 22,000 vehicle owners throughout the country who were asked to choose which late-night celebrity host they would trust most to work on their car.

The final results were as follows:

Jimmy Kimmel 27.6%
Jimmy Fallon 27.4%
Stephen Colbert 19.6%
Trevor Noah 14.3%
James Corden 11.2%

 

“We appreciate Jimmy Kimmel recognizing the Car Care Council poll results at the outset of National Car Care Month in April,” said Rich White, executive director of the Car Care Council. “We wanted to have some fun with this survey and Jimmy took it to another level with his humorous monologue that shined a spotlight on auto care.”
