Yeah the presence of Dacia at the bottom leads one to suspect correlation with other factors, given that Dacia are quite reliable by design (they literally take the most reliable parts from the Renaults of 10+ years ago and repackage them as new models)

As you say, I suspect the lack of scheduled maintenance significantly impacts the ratings here

Dacias are definitely not reliable.

But also there's no bitter taste in your mouth if something is broken. Also you can buy new Dacia every 2-3 years and not be financially ruined

Dacia Logan is one of the cheapest, probably frequently the cheapest car that can be bought in Germany.

So a low reliability in exchange for a very low purchase price is to be expected.

For the price of a Tesla, you could buy a large number of Dacia Logan, to use another one whenever one breaks down.

So Tesla should better improve their quality, to no longer be comparable to the cheapest existing cars.
