Consumer Complaints

NHTSA Complaint US

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

Outcomes stated in those reports

  • reports mentioning a crash 9
  • reports mentioning a fire 2
  • reported injuries 4

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.

By system

  • Fuel system25 (34.2%)
  • Air bags (restraint system)15 (20.5%)
  • Brakes5 (6.8%)Official recall records for this system: 2, covering model years 1995.

  • Powertrain (transmission & drivetrain)4 (5.5%)
  • Seat belts3 (4.1%)
  • Tires & wheels3 (4.1%)
  • Visibility (glass, wipers, mirrors)3 (4.1%)

Other / uncategorized: 1 classifications (1.4%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.

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 75 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.
