Klunk Score for Used Car Sites

Klunk adds a reliability badge to every used-car listing on Carvana, AutoTrader, and Cars.com — and a full reliability panel on every vehicle detail page. Now you can see how trustworthy a car is before you click into it. The Klunk Score is a 0–100 reliability rating for every model year, computed from real NHTSA owner-complaint data and refreshed every day. Higher means fewer documented problems. Lower means there's a paper trail of issues you should know about. WHILE YOU SHOP • A small color-coded badge appears on every listing card. • On vehicle detail pages, a full panel shows the score, the tier ("Smooth Ride", "Solid Pick", "Proceed with Caution", "Check Engine", or "Total Klunk"), and the total complaint count. • Click any badge or panel to see the underlying complaints, recalls, and per-year breakdown on klunk.app. • Compare years of the same model. The car you almost bought might be a known klunker. WHAT IT DOES NOT DO • Does not track which cars you look at. • Does not change prices, hide listings, or inject ads. • Does not require a sign-up or email. • Does not access any site outside Carvana, AutoTrader, and Cars.com. ABOUT THE DATA The Klunk Score is computed from owner complaints filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration — the same dataset reporters and J.D. Power cite. Methodology is published in full at klunk.app/methodology. You can audit any score against its underlying complaints on every vehicle dashboard page. Niche or new vehicles where NHTSA has limited data show a transparent "data not yet available" badge instead of guessing.
