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 2017 Volvo S90 in the United States are 6,462 units [1]. If the total number of problems reported by Volvo S90 owners in the last 6 years is 8, and the age of the vehicle is 6, the PPMY index can then be calculated as
