What owners report: issue areas

Other / uncategorized: 1 classifications (3.1%) were not assigned to a specific system by the source. They are counted but not treated as an issue area.
These are counts of records held by CarFaultIQ, not a failure rate. More records can simply mean more vehicles were sold or more owners reported. No vehicles-in-service figure exists in this data, so no reliability or risk score can be derived from it.
What the records are about, by source
Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.
- Owner complaints (130 records, model years 2011–2014) are most frequently classified under: tires & wheels, brakes and steering.
- Safety recalls (76 records, model years 2011–2014) are most frequently classified under: equipment & accessories, fuel system and seats.
- Manufacturer communications (152 records, model years 2011–2014) are most frequently classified under: powertrain (transmission & drivetrain), electrical system and engine.
"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records

Diagnostic codes found in evidence for this vehicle
These codes appear by explicit identifier in official records matched to this exact model and year.
A code appearing in a record means the code was named in that document. It is not a diagnosis of this vehicle, not a fault this vehicle has, and not an indication of urgency. Diagnosis requires reading live data from the vehicle.
