2025 periodic inspections recorded 3,538 defects leading to a failure across 5,281 inspections. The remaining 7 % of defects fall under other items. The single most common defect item was taka-akselisto (739 failures). Most advisories concerned lights and electrics (2,149).

Figures count defects, not cars: a failed car often has several defects. Shares are calculated from all defects leading to a failure.

Failure rates are not directly comparable between models because typical mileage differs.
