Evidence and provenance

Three evidence layers, kept separate

NHTSA signals: 0 submitted complaints, 0 recalls and 241 manufacturer communications. These are report counts, not failure probabilities.

EPA configuration evidence: 4 matched fuel-economy configurations help remove incompatible repair scenarios.

Repair-cost modelling: 18 applicable non-wear scenarios use published benchmarks where available plus parts and independent-shop labour assumptions. These ranges are not dealer quotes, repair-shop quotes or invoices.
