  1. b06ed5c

    NHTSA safety-claim scope corrected

    Rewrote safety-tool and ranking copy that overstated live percentile / fleet joins so claims match what the page actually computes from NHTSA tables.

  2. c072250

    Safety-score tool stopped claiming a live fleet percentile

    The tool scored against hardcoded medians while the UI implied a live NHTSA join percentile. Copy and trust footer now describe the real computation.

  3. cd246df

    Death and injury national totals coupled across stages

    NHTSA ≥99 unknown sentinels were left in fact tables, so stage totals disagreed (complaints vs model_years). Sentinel reconcile brought national deaths/injuries into agreement.
