    When problems were reported

    Mileage at the reported incident

    Limited mileage data: 2 of 35 reports include usable mileage. There isn’t enough coverage to show a useful chart.

    NHTSA’s mileage field refers to the reported incident, not necessarily the filing date. This shows report counts, not the likelihood of a failure.
