  • Electrical system3 (14.3%)Official recall records for this system: 8, covering model years 1995–2022.

A further 138 complaint records exist for this vehicle where the source stated no model year. They are not counted above and appear on no year page.

These are owner-submitted allegations, not confirmed defects. Counts are record counts in the dataset. No exposure denominator exists, so no failure rate or reliability score can be derived from them.
