📈 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 Nissan GT-R in the United States are 1,427 units [1]. If the total number of problems reported by Nissan GT-R owners in the last 12 years is 17, and the age of the vehicle is 12, the PPMY index can then be calculated as
