Quick summary
Total: 1,370 cars
The 2010 Honda CR-Z shows a lower overall defect rate of 213 defects per 100 vehicles, which is 27.5% better than the average for cars of the same year, at 294 defects per 100. While tyre wear is a common issue across most vehicles, the CR-Z stands out positively in categories such as Visibility, Lights & Electrics, and Equipment, where it performs much better than average. However, it has a notable weakness in the Steering category, with a higher defect rate compared to the average. Mileage trends reveal that defect rates generally increase with higher mileage, but the CR-Z maintains relatively consistent performance across different mileage segments.
