One thing I learned from my father before I purchased my first vehicle was go to the dealership for the brand car you want and ask the service guys what they think of the vehicle you want to get. They are the ones that know all the issues with the vehicles, not the salesmen up front. I have gone to plenty of different places and talked with techs out in the parking lot about certain models they told to stay away from or gave good advice on what to look out for.
Also I know she isn't any relation to you but you could at least donate an hour with her at the dinner table to look at cars online if she doesn't have anyone else with enough knowledge to know what to stay clear of. Just my .02c
