I would hardly call a few rattles and chirps reliability issues.
That's why this repair frequency stat report needs to be taken lightly.
A repair for a blown engine is quite different than one for a rattle on the back shelf. Yet this survey counts them equally.
So would you by a car based on this survey with fewer defects even though they were all engine and transmission related vs more reported instances with just some minor tweak issues?
