More info
When Google coverage is PARTIAL, we can only read the slice of reviews Google exposes. If that slice is the same for both 30 and 365 days, the two counts can read identically.
The overall Google rating, total review count, and national/state rank come from Google's own uncapped totals, so they are not limited by the exposed slice.
Review flow over the last 30 and 365 days, with the lifetime negative review total from Google's star histogram.

Lifetime negative reviews (Google total)
305
Every 1-3 star rating on this listing, from Google's own star histogram
Google exposed 100 reviews for this listing, so both recent windows stop at that ceiling and read the same. The rating and rank figures above come from Google's own totals and are not capped.
Confirmed negative reviews (removal-ready)
98
Retrieved with full text, reviewer and date. 32% of the lifetime total. Collection is incomplete for this store.
Collection gap: only 32% of this store's 305 negative ratings have been pulled with their text. A full removal case for this dealership needs a fresh pull before the numbers below are treated as complete.
These two numbers are different on purpose. The lifetime total is Google's own count of every 1-3 star rating. The confirmed count is the negative reviews we actually pulled with their text, reviewer and date, which is what a removal case can be built from.
