📈 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 2010 Honda CR-V in the United States are 200,305 units [1]. If the total number of problems reported by Honda CR-V owners in the last 16 years is 585, and the age of the vehicle is 16, the PPMY index can then be calculated as

PPMY Index = 585 / 200,305 / 16 * 1000 = 0.18.
