Star mix comes from the dealership's own Google review record after duplicate removal. A four-star average can hide a heavy one-star tail, which is why the distribution sits next to the average instead of behind it.

Shares are measured against the classified low-star reviews in each quarter, so a store that collected more reviews does not read as a store whose complaints changed. One review can carry more than one category, which is why shares in a quarter can pass 100 percent when stacked. Quarters with fewer than five classified reviews are dropped from the chart.
