Where it stands out against its peers
- Air bags: more complaints than 90% of 2017 cars — 25% of its 20 complaints, where an ordinary 2017 car has 9%.
Same model year only, at least 30 peer cars, zeros included. Every car has a worst part; this shows which, and how far from ordinary it is. A high share means more to check, not a verdict.
