At a glance
- Next to the 2021 and 2023
- At 35 complaints for each year on the road, the 2022 runs 2.2 times the 2021 (16) and above the 2023 (24).
- Top problem
- Two problems run close. Fuel pump has 77 complaints and stalling has 72, out of 177 in all. A quarter of the 35 owners who gave a mileage for fuel pump saw it by about 8,000 miles, and half by about 19,000.
- Crash, fire and injury reports
- 17 of the 177 complaints (10%) report a crash, a fire or an injury. The typical vehicle on this site sits at 6%, so this one runs well above it. Counted separately (one report can carry more than one), 14 reports mention a crash, 3 mention a fire and 8 people were hurt.
- Recalls behind the top problems
- Fuel pump has a recall on the same system (23V-013). Stalling and misfire have none. A recall on the same system doesn't always cover the failure owners describe, so compare its summary with the complaints.
- When owners filed
- Complaints are still climbing. 2025 brought 44, the most of any year so far. So far in 2026, 42 more have come in.
