The tracker pages for those packages provide the clue:

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/r-cran-factominer
Blocked by: car

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/r-cran-ggpubr
Blocked by: r-cran-rstatix

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/r-cran-vim
Blocked by: car

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/r-cran-systemfit
Blocked by: car

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/r-cran-survminer
Blocked by: r-cran-ggpubr

Until recently, car had a dependency on r-cran-maptools, which was
dropped in the 3.1-2-3 upload.
