Consumer Complaints

NHTSA Complaint US

505 complaint records in the dataset for this vehicle and year.

Outcomes stated in those reports

  • reports mentioning a crash 32
  • reports mentioning a fire 22
  • reported injuries 23

Outcomes as stated by the person who filed the report. They are not verified, not adjudicated, and carry no exposure denominator, so they cannot be turned into a rate.

A single report can name several systems, so these figures overlap and must not be added together — their sum is larger than the report total above.

A further 5,096 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.
