Although some content on ConsumerReports.org is available for free, Forbes Library patrons will have access to vastly more content when accessing it through the library. The online subscription also includes additional content not available in the magazine, including updates to previously-published test results and greater coverage; for example, vehicle reliability (frequency of repair) tables online extend over the full 10 model years reported in the Annual Questionnaires, whereas the magazine has only a six-year history of each model.
