"How do you rate squeaks and rattles compared to a transmission failure? "

Trackaholic raises a very good question.  In CR's ratings they talk about "problems per 100 vehicles."  But they never tell you WHAT kind of problems.  So if car A has 2 problems per 100, and car B has only 1, the car with only 1 problem per 100 gets a higher rating for reliability.

But what if Car A's problems were a broken cupholder and a run in the paint?  And Car B's "only" problem was, the transmission fell out after 3000 miles???

Big difference.

CR does not tell you what the problems are, only their frequency.  Highly, highly misleading, in my opinion.
