Quick summary

Total: 6,246 cars

The 2015 Toyota Hilux has an overall defect rate of 198 per 100 vehicles, which is 16% higher than the average for cars of the same year. Notably, it exhibits a significant increase in defects as mileage increases, particularly in the 124,000+ miles category, where the defect rate rises to 382 per 100. While the Hilux performs better than average in steering and suspension issues, it shows concerning results in categories such as brakes, visibility, and body structure, with defect rates considerably above the average. This model's higher incidence of defects in these areas suggests a need for more attention to maintenance and checks as it ages.
