Dunno their algorithm, I just know that old people read them and then tell me what car is good or bad
My mom read a consumer report about her car, SRX, and it said it was the worst thing in the world since Osama Bin Laden, and will no doubt break, explode and kill her children. She was terrified and said she would never would have purchased the car is she read it before hand. I asked her if anything consumer report said happened and she said no. I told her to chuck that piece of garbage, and not to listen to idiots (someone also told her that there are 51 states... so she asked me).
