I am very pleased with this Aisin 6spd gb.  Upshifts and downshifts have been quite smooth. I usually lift my foot off the pedal and gentle brake application. I've not experienced the galloping horse,did notice a slight jerk,but only very few times.If it's harsh as a galloping horse,then you should check it out with SC.

I won't be surprised if it's Aisin made cos Toyota is 51% share holder in Aisin,if I'm not mistaken. Toyota has collaborated with Aisin in many of the gearbox designs.

Time needed to repair (in days) is here too in the link , see http://www.reliabilityindex.com/manufacturer/AvgLabour

I have also sensed cheaper /smaller cars have better rating because having simpler/older or proven tech (manufactured at larger volume and automation/skills achieved to near perfection) sure more reliable.

But as a consumer, u can still compare the car by price level by selecting those cars in the same price range and click COMPARE.

Or by Size, either small compact to  whatever size u fancy, just select the appropriate lists ,see http://www.reliabilityindex.com/ratings

Ah yes, that is much better. Toyota is quite bad.

Looking further into the data, there are more problems with it.
Average mileage and age of the cars can vary quite a bit.
For example, Daihatsu is best in time of the road but has the second lowest mileage at 34,041 km.
Highest mileage is Volvo with 59,218.

Yes, Warranty Direct admitted said that,

'Another thing to bear in mind when comparing vehicles is that a particular car's reliability score can be dependant on the average age and mileage of those particular cars we hold on file. Normally a newer model will have a lower Reliability Score than a 6 year old vehicle with 70,000 miles on the clock.'

So if u really want fair comparison, try looking at all thing with same aspects, not just price level, size but also age or mileage. That of course is harder to do because not all things are 100% similar, that is true even for prices.

I guess the data is just nice if you want to compare between 2 specific models between which you can't choose.
You really have to dig in deep to take into account car age and mileage and even than you still don't know how many data points are used for that specific car model.

For anything else it's really just a very rough indicator.
