About This Data

The quality index for Subaru is calculated from reliability data across 101 vehicle configurations from 7 different models. The index considers:

  • NHTSA recall counts, weighted by severity
  • NHTSA complaint counts, weighted by crashes, injuries, and deaths reported
  • EPA fuel-economy data where available
  • A brand-tier baseline used to steady scores when a specific model-year has little NHTSA history

Higher scores indicate better predicted quality and reliability. The quality index is refreshed as NHTSA publishes new recall and complaint data.
