: Lemon Law BlogSome SUVs Do Poorly in Roll Over Crashes
By Kemnitzer, Anderson, Barron, Ogilvie & Brewer
Some SUVs did not do well in roof crush tests conducted by the Insurance Institute of America. A report in the NY Times by Chris Jensen digests the Institute's findings.
Only four of the dozen small S.U.V.?s evaluated in a new test to see how well their roofs held up in a rollover crash got ?good? ratings, and some of the country?s most popular models did not fare well.
The new Volkswagen Tiguan, Subaru Forester, the Honda Element and the Jeep Patriot received good ratings. The Suzuki Grand Vitara, Chevrolet Equinox (and Pontiac Torrent), the Toyota RAV4, the Nissan Rogue and the Mitsubishi Outlander received acceptable ratings.
The popular Ford Escape/Mercury Mariner/Mazda Tribute triplets and Honda?s CR-V got marginal ratings. The worst-performing models were the Kia Sportage and its sibling the Hyundai Tucson, which got poor ratings.
