Here are the key points one can have after using some scripts to load the content:
* Tesla Model Y ranked most unreliable among nearly new cars, with 17.3% serious defect rate.
* TÜV report found rising major defects, particularly in electric vehicles like Tesla’s Model 3 and Y.
* European brands, especially Mercedes and Volkswagen, dominated reliability rankings across all age groups.
Are you sure about that third point? Going to the graph they link, Volkswagen ranks near dead last: https://www.autoblog.com/features/predicted-car-reliability
It was a copy/paste, I make no claims about whatever the points indicate
I think the TUV is mostly about safety equipment (light, breaks) that don't pass the two year check (they probably also test the alignment and other stuff), and your link might be about engine/transmission/power train defects.
The article is about TÜV findings, the linked graph is the average predicted reliability based on Consumer Report member survey.
