Model Rating
'14 Subaru Forrester Good
Mitsubishi Outlander Sport Acceptable
BMW X1 Marginal
Nissan Rogue Marginal
Mazda CX-5 Marginal
Honda CR-V Marginal
Jeep Wrangler (2 door) Marginal
Volkswagen Tiguan Marginal
Hyundai Tuscon Poor
KIA Sportage Poor
Buick Encore Poor
Jeep Patriot Poor
Ford Escape Poor
