Right, so 0.42% and 0.16% failure rate, respectively.
In the US alone, people make some 600m trips a day, so that "reliability" would result in about 2.5m to 1m failures a day.

Ok. 0.5% of all cars exploding still doesn't sound reassuring.

Sure, if we tune the statistics such that we only look at those that didn't fail, then nothing failed. I love magic tricks!
