These are reports made to NHTSA, not verified diagnoses. More reports can reflect more vehicles, more time on the road, or greater reporting activity.
The reporting timeline
When reports arrived.

70,000 miles is the median among 13 reports with usable mileage. The middle half spans 38,000–80,000 miles.
This describes the submitted reports. It does not predict when a vehicle will fail.
