📈 PPMY Index and Problem Occurrence Trend

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 2007 Honda CR-V in the United States are 229,260 units [1]. If the total number of problems reported by Honda CR-V owners in the last 19 years is 1069, and the age of the vehicle is 19, the PPMY index can then be calculated as

PPMY Index = 1069 / 229,260 / 19 * 1000 = 0.25.
