In our research we use the PPMY index to compare the reliability of vehicles. The PPMY index of a certain model is defined as the problems reported per thousand vehicles per Year. The total sales of the 2015 Acura RLX in the United States are 1,760 units [1]. If the total number of problems reported by Acura RLX owners in the last 10 years is 14, and the age of the vehicle is 10, the PPMY index can then be calculated as
PPMY Index = 14 / 1,760 / 10 * 1000 = 0.80.
