- Car shoppers checking recalls, complaints, and fuel costs
- Worth noticing
- Its methodology warns that complaints are not failure rates and recalls do not confirm whether a specific car was repaired.
Field notes
The homepage provides make, model, and year selectors, plus sample notes that interpret specific recall campaigns and complaint counts. Its crash comparison describes its inputs as EPA test weights and NHTSA frontal ratings, while the garage is presented as browser-local rather than account-based. The featured RAV4 report gives a $1,600–$2,400 annual fuel-cost estimate and lists six recall campaigns.
