The Reliability Rating by RepairPal is a measurement of {vehicle|automobile|car} dependability {based|based mostly|primarily based} on {the cost|the associated fee|the fee|the price}, frequency, and severity of unscheduled repairs and {maintenance|upkeep}. RepairPal combines {an extensive|an in depth|an intensive} proprietary database {including|together with} {millions|hundreds of thousands|tens of millions|thousands and thousands} of {vehicle|automobile|car} {repair|restore} invoices with {additional|extra|further} automotive statistics and predictive {data|information|knowledge} science to develop {the most|essentially the most|probably the most} {genuine|real} reliability metric {in the|within the} {industry|business|trade}. The Reliability Rating {allows you to|lets you|means that you can|permits you to} {research|analysis} dependability and {ownership|possession} {costs|prices} {related|associated} to unscheduled repairs and {maintenance|upkeep} {in addition to|along with} {comparing|evaluating} reliability {factors|components|elements} {against|in opposition to|towards} {other|different} {vehicles|automobiles|autos} and {industry|business|trade} averages.
