The 2018 Peugeot Horizon exhibits a higher overall defect rate than the average car of the same year, with 136 defects per 100 vehicles compared to the average of 120. The model shows significant mileage-related trends, particularly with increasing defect rates in higher mileage brackets, peaking at 388 defects per 100 for vehicles over 124,000 miles.
