Well maybe Odd is the wrong word, too small and biased?

There should be statistics how many cars are sold and then you could collect data from repairshops instead of users from a website. Even if a user has 3 cars, asking 1 repairshop will give you data for 100’s of cars. Its just odd to do a survey on the users of your website because thats probably a small and skewed sample size.

Edit: “We had insufficient data to create brand rankings for Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Infiniti, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln, Lucid, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Mitsubishi, Polestar, Porsche, and Ram.” Gives you a hint on how sufficient their data is in total.

Good point but still questionable methodology.

This basically defines most reliable as “least issues in first 3 years”. Also why would you collect them as a survey of your members and not try to get a broader statistic.

“based on CR member surveys” so its what people think is most reliable. Not what is actually most reliable.
